Bingera, a sugar-industry locality, is midway between Bundaberg and Gin Gin. In 1883 William Gibson, a sugar grower who had started in Hemmant, Brisbane, purchased some land on the north side of the Burnett River. His sons were partners in the venture, and another Hemmant planter, John Howes and Bros, contributed financial backing. The Bingera Plantation (named after a pastoral station) was established, and a large crushing mill was operational by 1885. 'Bingera' is thought to be derived from an Aboriginal word indicating bream (fish). Gibson and Howes had a railway siding to their mill, and Gibsons Siding was renamed Bingera in 1897. Bingera was the biggest mill in the Bundaberg area and its plantation was not subdivided into farms.

he's the only NYPD officer to ever have been executed, too. I found this via a book review on the british guardian website: books.guardian.co.uk/review/story/0,,2270898,00.html sounds like becker had a very interesting life.
