Hi Carollyn > Hepburn in 'Tale of a City: Geelong 1850-1950' page 27 "While there seems to be some dispute as to whether a shipment of cattle brought to Port Phillip by alexander Thomson from Tasmania in the summer of 1835-6 was he first to be introduced tothe district - a rival claim being made for a herd overlanded from New South Wales by Gardiner, Hepburn and Hawden - there seems to be no doubt that the first sheep were sent over from Tasmania by George Armytage. They were landed at Williamstown and left in charge of a man named Charles Franks and a shepherd, both of whom were murdered by blacks." (I like the implication that the shepherd wasn't "a man"!)
