In 1888 William Crombie took up a block nearby to rest horses and water cattle. By 1889 Robert Rowe took over the store and in 1901 the government sunk a bore to supply permanent water.[5] A station and a police station were established in 1903, a school had been built in 1915 and in 1920 Mungerannie was the head office of the Great Northern League whom want to form the separate state of Branchina. The cattle station was also once part of the Cowarie and Kanowna runs.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~charliemann/deserttrek_files/Birdsv0007.jpg |title=photo showing name "Mungerannie Hotel" |accessdate=18 July 2006}} {{Stations of South Australia}}2. ^{{cite book |title=South Australia:What's in a name |last=Cockburn |first=Rodney |year=1990 |page=153 |publisher=Axiom Publishing |isbn=0-9592519-1-X}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.mungeranniehotel.com.au/wetlandsbirdlife.html|title=Mungerannie Hotel Birdlife|year=2012|accessdate=13 October 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bom.gov.au/jsp/ncc/cdio/weatherData/av?p_nccObsCode=139&p_display_type=dataFile&p_stn_num=017067|title=Monthly rainfall - Mungeranie|year=2014|accessdate=13 October 2014|publisher=Bureau of Meteorology}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.southaustralianhistory.com.au/mungerannie.htm|title=Mungerannie|year=2013|accessdate=13 October 2014|publisher=Flinders Range Research}} 3 : Towns in South Australia|Pastoral leases in South Australia|Far North (South Australia) |
