History

Hessenburg Provisional School opened on 11 June 1894. On 1 January 1909 it became Hessenburg State School. Due to anti-German sentiment during World War I, the district was renamed Ingoldsby[3][4] and in 1916 the school was renamed Ingoldsby State School. It closed on 9 August 1974.[5]

In the 2016 census Ingoldsby had a population of 70 people.[1]
