Thanks for the message but my Cahills are not connected to the Cahills in Springsure, as I seem to remember that fellow was a Policeman. My lot came to Moreton Bay and then to Ipswich and then to Toowoomba. three of their sons, Thomas. Patrick and Matthew went to the Northern Territory with Nat Buchannan in about 1881. Paddy became famous in NT and he was appointed at "Protector of Aboriginals" and lived at what is know known as Oenpelli. There is a series of books by John Mulvaney about the lives of various settlers in NT, I understand the book on Paddy Cahill is available through the Aborignal Studies Press in Canberra.
