"First Families" at Digby (Emu Creek),
S-W Victoria, Australia
Digby township developed at a crossing point on Emu creek, later the Stokes river on the main bullock track from the port of Portland on the south coast to the fertile grazing land on the Glenelg & Wannon rivers at "Merino Downs," "Muntham" & "Sandford." This area in the south west corner of the Port Phillip District in the Colony of New South Wales was first settled by the HENTY brothers in 1837 after pushing inland from their 1834 settlement at Portland Bay.
This growing list of early inhabitants and visitors to the Digby area from its settlement circa 1840 is an attempt to collect the names of individual and family pioneers associated with this south-west Victorian rural settlement in the 1800s. The list includes individuals and families ranging from long term residents of the area to those who may have had a child born, registered, or baptised in Digby, were associated with a local organisation, owned land, or a residence in the area in the 1800s.
Additional names, comments, stories, links or corrections to the following or other families with connections to the Digby area in the 1800s are most welcome.
