The First Wild White Men.
Pamphlett and Finnegan (April to December, 1823), and Parsons (April 1823 to September 1824) were the first white men known to have lived with the blackfullahs in what is now Queensland. The best known "wild white men" in the area between Moreton Bay, the Darling Downs, and the Burnett area, were:
John Sterry Baker. ("Boraltchou" or "Boralsha").
John Graham. ("Moilow").
David (Bracefield). (Bracefell). ("Wandi").
James Davis. ("Duram- boi"; "Dormboi"; "Tallboy").
Samuel Derrington, a more shadowy character, was also a "wild white man".
While John Fahy. ("Gilberri"; "Gilbury") might be called the last to merit mention.
