Marodian was centred on Gayndah and Goomeri, and incorporated parts of the former Isis and Wide Bay electorates. It was named for Marodian Station, situated between Kilkivan and Brooweena. It replaced the Wide Bay electorate due to confusion between the previous state seat and the federal Division of Wide Bay.
In 1960 Marodian was abolished, it was redistributed between the Barambah, Burnett and Isis electorates.
