Before the arrival of the Europeans, original inhabitants of the Maitland area were the Wonnarau people. In 1803, Lieutenant-Colonel Paterson named the site of what is now known as Maitland as Schanck’s Forest Plains. However, through the years, the name was somehow lost, and the area became known as Maitland after the government town was proclaimed. The government town is now called East Maitland.
