The Division of Hunter is an Australian Electoral Division in the state of New South Wales.
It is located in northern rural New South Wales.
It covers much of the Hunter Valley region, including the towns of Singleton, Maitland, Muswellbrook, Cessnock and Denman.
The Division was one of the original 75 divisions created for the first Federal election in 1901.
The Division was named after Captain John Hunter, the second Governor of New South Wales.
In 2015 the Australian Electoral Commission said that the Division of Hunter would be abolished at the next election.
Because of population changes, New South Wales loses a division, and a new one will be created in Western Australia.
The boundaries of many NSW divisions will have to be changed, and the area covered by Hunter will be added to nearby divisions.
Under AEC rules however, names of the original 1901 divisions should be kept, so the Division of Charlton will be renamed Hunter.
The seat has been held by the Labor since 1910.
Famous members include the first Prime Minister Edmund Barton, and Opposition Leaders Matthew Charlton and Dr H.V. Evatt.
Joel Fitzgibbon, Minister for Defence, took over the seat when his father, Eric Fitgibbon  retired in 1996.

Mary Douglas Leakey, FBA (née Nicol, 6 February 1913 – 9 December 1996) was a British archaeologist and anthropologist, who spent much of her life working in East Africa, in Tanzania and Kenya.
She discovered the first fossilized Proconsul skull, an extinct primate.
They had a mixture of Old World monkey and ape characteristics, and their position in the evolution of the apes is still not clear.
Leakey also discovered the robust Zinjanthropus skull at Olduvai Gorge.
For much of her career she worked together with her husband, Louis Leakey, in Olduvai Gorge, uncovering the tools and fossils of ancient hominins.
She developed a system for classifying the stone tools found at Olduvai.
She also discovered the Laetoli footprints.
In 1960 she became director of excavation at Olduvai.
Eventually, she chose and trained her own staff.
After the death of her husband she became a leading palaeoanthropologist, helping to establish the Leakey tradition by training her son, Richard, in the field.
Leakey served her apprenticeship in archaeology under Dorothy Liddell at Hembury in Devon, 19301934, for whom she also did illustrations.
In 1934 she was part of a dig at Swanscombe where she discovered the largest elephant molar known at the time in Britain.
She needed help to identify its species.p47
The years 1935 to 1959, spent at Olduvai Gorge in the Serengeti plains of Northern Tanzania, yielded many stone tools from primitive stone-chopping instruments to multi-purpose hand axes.
These finds came from Stone Age cultures dated as far back as 100,000 to two million years ago.
The Leakeys unearthed a Proconsul africanus skull on Rusinga Island, in October 1948.
On weekends he drove non-stop at high speed the 357 miles between Olduvai and Nairobi.
The teen-age boys, Richard and Philip, were on site holidays and vacations.
After Louis
After Mary's husband died, she continued her work at Olduvai and Laetoli.
It was here, at the Laetoli site, that she discovered Hominin fossils that were more than 3.75 million-years-old.
She also discovered fifteen new species of other animals and one new genus.
From 1976 to 1981 Leakey and her staff worked to uncover the Laetoli hominid footprint trail which was left in volcanic ashes some 3.6 million years ago.
The years that followed this discovery were filled with research at Olduvai and Laetoli, the follow-up work to discoveries and preparing publications.

Olivia Jane Wilde (born March 10, 1984 in New York City) is an American actress who has acted in many movies and television programs.
She acted in movies like Alpha Dog and The Girl Next Door and in television series such as The O.C.. She is also an activist for veganism.
Charles  Robert Alexandre des Moulins (1798-1875) was a French botanist who also studied molluscs.
In 1830, he proposed to introduce plants into aquaria so that the animals in the aquarium could breathe better.
He described many species of snails, for example Pagodulina pagodula, and plants, for example Euphorbia milii.
Towards the end of his life he became opposed to Darwinism.
Laetoli is a site in Tanzania, dated to the PlioPleistocene.
It is famous for its hominin footprints, preserved in volcanic ash.
The site of the Laetoli footprints is 45 km south of Olduvai gorge.
It was excavated by archaeologists Louis and Mary Leakey in 1978. “
The Laetoli Footprints” got a lot of attention from the public because they are convincing evidence of bipedalism in Pliocene hominins.
Dated to 3.6 million years ag,o they were the oldest known evidence of hominin bipedalism.
Now older evidence has been found, such as the Ardipithecus ramidus fossils.
The footprints and skeletal structure excavated at Laetoli were clear evidence that bipedalism evolved before enlarged brains in hominids.
Although it is debated, it is believed the three individuals who made these footprints belonged to the species Australopithecus afarensis.
Together with footprints were other hominin and animal skeletal remains and Acheulean artifacts (hand-axes).
After debate, it was decided that  Australopithecus afarensis is the species of the three hominins who made the footprints at Laetoli.
This is based on the reconstruction of the foot skeleton of a female A. afrarensis hominin.
Detailed footprint analysis compared both human and bipedal animals such as bears and primates.
Gaits (stride pattern), and foot structure were analysed.
Step length, stride length, stride width and foot angle showed that A. afarensis was more human-like in gait than ape-like.<ref>Tuttle R.H; Webb D.M., & Baksh M. 1991.
Laetoli toes and Australopithecus afarensis.

193–200.</ref>A. afarensis, then, is an obligate bipedal hominid.
Its brain size was very similar to that of modern chimpanzees and gorillas.
So, in one important respect it was like the genus Homo since it was bipedal.
That means it was adapted to living in open woodland and savannah, not tropical rain forest.
On the other hand, it had a brain about the size of an ape.
This situation, where different traits of an animal evolve at different rates, is known as mosaic evolution.
Footprints in Europe
The oldest hominin footprints in Europe are in Britain.
They are about 800,000 years to a million years old.
Ashton, Nick et al 2014.
Hominin footprints from early Pleistocene deposits at Happisburgh, UK.
PLoS One.
They were found on Happisburgh beach, East Anglia.
The archaeologists describe them as "the oldest known hominin footprint surface outside Africa at between ca.
1 million and 0.78 million years ago".
The site in known for its preservation of sediments with early Pleistocene fauna and flora.
Since 2005 flint tools have been found.
This means humans occupied northern Europe at least 350,000 years earlier than was thought before.

Koto Okubo (December 24, 1897 – January 12, 2013) was a Japanese supercentenarian who, at the time of her death, was the oldest living woman in the world, and second-oldest living person behind Jiroemon Kimura, for less than 4 weeks after Italian-born Americanwoman Dina Manfredini's death on December 17, 2012, after already being the oldest living Japanese woman since Chiyono Hasegawa's death on December 2, 2011, just twelve days after her 115th birthday.
She spent her last days in a nursing home in Kawasaki with her son's company.
She died of pneumonia at 12.00pm on January 12, 2013, just nineteen days after celebrating her 115th birthday, and was succeeded as the oldest living woman by Misao Okawa, also a Japanesewoman and over 10 weeks younger, and was the second-youngest of only four Japanese people who had become at least 115 years old.
Jirōemon Kimura  (木村 次郎右衛門, Kimura Jirōemon; 19 April 1897 – 12 June 2013) was a Japanese supercentenarian recognized by the Guinness World Records as the oldest man ever as well as the only man who has become at least 116 years old.
Kinjirō Miyake (三宅 金治郎, Miyake Kinjirō) was born on 19 April 1897 in the fishing village of Kamiukawa (present Kyōtango), as the third of six living children to farmers Morizo and Fusa Miyake.
Except for his oldest sister, who died 6 weeks before the age of 5 years in 1892, and his oldest brother, who died just 31 months old in 1894, longevity was common in his family; in late-1980s his second-oldest sister died at age 96, his second-oldest brother at age 91 and his second-youngest brother at age 85, in 1993 his younger sister died at age 93, and his youngest brother as well as last living sibling Tetsuo died in 2007 98 years old.
After he finished school at the age of 14, he worked for local post offices for over 45 years until he retired in 1962 at the age of 65, and thereafter worked until age 90 as a farmer along with his eldest son, who died at age 76 in September 1998, less than 4 weeks after his youngest son, who died at age 54.
In the 1920s, he also worked as a government communications worker in Korea, which was at the time a colony of Japan.
After returning from Korea, Miyake married his 6 years, 9 months younger neighbour Yae Kimura, who died at age 75 in 1979, and changed his name to Jirōemon Kimura upon the marriage (since his wife's family lacked a male heir) and had, except their second child, a son who died in 1927 just 20 days before the age of 2 years, 7 children (of whom 5 were still living at the time of his death).
He lived in Kyōtango, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan with his eldest son's widow and grandson's widow.
Kimura, who became the oldest living Japanese man after Tomoji Tanabe's death on 19 June 2009, two months after celebrating his 112th birthday and being the 7th Japanese man to do so, became the oldest living man in the world as well as the oldest man to receive the title as the oldest living man after Americanman Walter Breuning's death on 15 April 2011 (Breuning, who was 30 weeks older, died on 14 April 2011 Montana Time), just four days before celebrating his 114th birthday and becoming the second Japanese man and the 7th man in the world to do so.
