History

The Undullah is believed to be the word nandulla from the Bundjalung and/or Yuggera languages meaning the silver leafed iron bark (eucalyptus melanophloia).

Henry Herbert Elliott was an early settler who raised cattle.

On 20 May 2016, the eastern part of Undullah (within Logan City) was excised to create the new localities of Flinders Lakes and Monarch Glen and part of the new locality of Flagstone.
