The locality takes its name from the parish and lagoon, which in turn come from the pastoral run name, used from before 1858, reportedly the name of an Aboriginal person. [2]

Nellybri Provisional School opened circa 1889. Between about 1896 and 1899 it became a half-time school in conjunction with Retreat Provisional School (meaning the schools shared a single teacher).
