History
The locality of Eba occupies the western half of the Hundred of Eba which was declared in 1860 and named after a friend of the governor. The railway siding was named for the hundred when the railway was built in 1878. The current boundaries were created in 2003 for the long-established name. The Morgan railway line was closed in 1969. Little remains of the village today, however it once had a post office, school, blacksmith, grocery business and sawmill sending firewood to Adelaide and a cricket team.
