O.M.D. Bell and guests in the fernery at Jimbour House, Queensland, ca. 1892

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Jimbour is one of the oldest stations on the Darling Downs and the heritage-listed Jimbour Homestead is perhaps the grandest country home ever constructed in Queensland. The name Jimbour, originally spelled Gimba or Jimba is from an unidentified aboriginal language apparently referring to good grass or sheep. Thomas Bell came to Queensland from Northern Ireland in charge of convicts in around 1829 bringing his family. Thomas initially left the management of Jimbour to Henry Dennis but when Dennis was drowned in a shipwreck in 1847, he took up the management himself. The Bell family ran the property until 1892 and were responsible for the construction of the homestead and other important buildings on the property.

    Who would have though that in the 21st Century that Mr Field and Mr Wyle would be linked by willow woven coffins.

    beachcomber australia Second word on wall looks like DRAPER to me. Need someone who can access the census returns or a trade directory to find a surname.

    The building on the corner was a pub known as Lawlor’s in the 1970’s it may have been a pub long before that also.
