Here is a little history behind the names of the current Legislative Council divisions. It passes through mountain gorges, farmlands and hopfields, Hobart, its suburbs and port, and on to its mouth where it meets the Southern Ocean at the Iron Pot. The Derwent River, from which the division takes its name, is a major geographical feature of central and southern Tasmania. On the way, the waters of the Derwent have turned turbines to generate electricity, provided drinking, irrigation and industrial water for farms, towns and cities, opened up sea lanes to the world and given Tasmanian residents and visitors a major recreational asset.
In earlier times it was a favourite playground of southern right whales—so much so that the noise of their mating kept residents awake. The first european sighting of the Derwent was probably by the French explorer La Perouse in He explored the lower reaches of the Derwent, probably as far upstream as New Norfolk, naming features that still retain the names he gave them, including Risdon Cove and Cornelian Bay.
Unknown to him at the time, Hayes was not the first european discoverer of the Derwent. Hayes was later to learn that the French explorer Admiral Bruni D'Entrecasteaux had discovered the river shortly before him, naming it the Riviere du Nord because it flowed from the north.

Hayes named the Derwent after two geographical features in the Lake District in his native Cumberland in England—Derwentwater and the Derwent River, which passes through the lake. The name of the division of Elwick has been synonymous with Glenorchy in Hobart's northern suburbs for more than years. In the early days Glenorchy originally known as O'Briens Bridge was a largely rural community. In the s two-thirds of its several hundred residents were engaged in farming. Other residents living closer to what is now central Hobart commuted to work.
One of these was chemist John Norton Wilkinson, who owned a property named Elwick.

Wilkinson arrived in Tasmania about It is probable that he named his land after what may have been his birthplace in England there is a small village of Elwick—derived from the name Ella and the suffix wick for town—in County Durham. His holding covered what is now Elwick Racecourse and continued further on to the Derwent River. In the Tasmanian Racing Club formed acquired the property as a racecourse and the homestead at Elwick was demolished. The first races were held in February A half holiday was declared; 5 people attended, many of them arriving on the newly-introduced railway service.
The Governor Sir Frederick Wells was among the spectators. Wilkinson lived for another 11 years and his obituary in the Tasmanian newspaper in November noted that he was ". It continued: "He was respected by all who knew him and by frugality obtained a competence for life". Glenorchy, and the surrounding area, is now very much a part of Hobart's urban landscape, but its rural past lives on through the name Elwick.
The name Hobart has been used as a Division name previously from the s until , when most of Hobart was renamed Wellington. It was Hobart Town between and , when a redistribution occurred and the division became the Division of Hobart.

Hobart Town remained the name of the settlement until despite it being declared a city in It was also a factor that Mount Wellington is a feature to a number of the southern divisions and that the name of Wellington did not adequately distinguish the division. The time when the division was known as Wellington also meant that Hobart was the only state capital not to be used as the name for a parliamentary seat.
Huon Kermandec certainly left his mark on the region in southern Tasmania that bears his name.

The Huon River is the life-force of the Huon Valley. D'Entrecasteaux and Kermandec were confronted by a shoreline comprising vast, dense forest extending inland to the mountain ranges. Those forests were later to provide one of Tasmania's most prized timbers, Huon pine. The first permanent settlement in the Huon was in Settlement increased as timber getters extended their camps and activities, seeking, in particular, blackwood for casks and barrels, and the valuable Huon pine.
In the following years development has continued, with the Huon Valley producing much of Tasmania's timber, fruit, agriculture, and more recently, aquaculture, and a growing tourism industry. The Europeans settled Launceston in after the settlement was moved along the Tamar River from the original settlement at George Town, which was settled in Launceston has been used as a division name previously with the change to its former name of Paterson only occurring in Another reason for the use of Launceston was that Paterson did not connote a well-known geographical feature.
