Captain George White, of 'P.S. Brewarrina' and 'P.S. Wandering Jew'. He took his vessel up to Bourke during what was probably the 1890 flood, and then had to beat the receding floodwaters back to safety. His daughter Jessie married Tom Desailly, and they spent a number of years at Brewarrina Station.
