The South Bourke and Mornington Journal was a newspaper in Victoria (Australia) published under this title from 1865 until 25 August 1927. It was partially digitised alongside other Victorian community newspapers, as part of a World War I commemoration project.[1] The digitised issues of this title are available on Trove with coverage from 10 January 1877 - 23 December 1920.[2]

Initially published in Richmond, Victoria until 1920, in its latter years the Journal was published in Dandenong, Victoria.[2] The Journal was named for the counties of Bourke and Mornington to the east and south of Melbourne.[citation needed]
