John Oxley

John Oxley (1785 – 1828) was a great adventurer, naval officer and surveyor. He played an important role in Australian history and the colonisation of Queensland. He is remembered for his role in establishing Queensland’s first convict settlement at Redcliffe in 1824, and naming the Brisbane River.These places were he sailed, camped, and mapped are places I call home.
