Shire of Boroondara
Hawthorn and Kew were never part of the Shire of Boroondara. From relevant Boroondara Council page:
The first Local Government body was the Boroondara District Road Board, formed in 1854 and incorporated the areas which were to become Hawthorn, Kew and Camberwell. Hawthorn and Kew were created as separate municipalities in 1860 and the remaining area of the Road Board became Boroondara Shire in 1871. This later became the City of Camberwell.
