The area was originally the territory of the Ngadjuri people.[2] The name Bower honours David Bower, a South Australian Member of Parliament (1865 - 1887) who donated land in the state for institutional purposes.[3] By 1916, Bower had become a dispatch centre for mallee timber and roots. These were loaded at the railway station on the Morgan railway line and sent to Adelaide.[4] Bower Public School operated in the town between 1917 and 1960, replacing an earlier Lutheran school forcibly closed during World War I.[3][5][6] The historic Lime Kiln Ruins on Bower Boundary Road are listed on the South Australian Heritage Register.[7] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/Latestproducts/2905.0Appendix82006?opendocument&tabname=Notes&prodno=2905.0&issue=2006&num=&view=|title=2905.0 - Statistical Geography: Volume 2 -- Census Geographic Areas, Australia, 2006 |publisher=Australian Bureau of Statistics |accessdate=8 December 2009}} {{Commons category|Bower, South Australia}}{{Regional Council of Goyder localities}}{{Mid Murray Council localities}}{{SouthAustralia-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite book | title=Emmaus to Worlds End: a history of the Robertstown Council Area | publisher=District Council of Robertstown | year=1986 | location="The Area - Its Settlement and Development"}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=The Manning Index of South Australian History|url=http://www.slsa.sa.gov.au/manning/pn/b/b24.htm|publisher=State Library South Australia|accessdate=2010-02-01|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20091124093257/http://www.slsa.sa.gov.au/manning/pn/B/b24.htm|archivedate=24 November 2009|df=dmy-all}} 4. ^{{cite news |title=Bower Railway-Station|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article5533193 |date=8 November 1916 |work=The Advertiser |accessdate=2010-02-01}} 5. ^{{cite book | title=Hills, Valley and Plains: History of the Eudunda District | author=Dreckow, Betty | year=1986 | pages=141}} 6. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article105412044 |title=CLOSING GERMAN SCHOOLS |newspaper=Daily Herald |volume=8, |issue=2260 |location=South Australia |date=18 June 1917 |accessdate=24 December 2016 |page=3 |via=National Library of Australia}} 7. ^{{cite web | url=http://maps.sa.gov.au/heritagesearch/HeritageItem.aspx?p_heritageno=16301 | title=Lime Kiln Ruins | publisher=Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources | work=South Australian Heritage Register | accessdate=8 April 2016}} 1 : Towns in South Australia |
