- Patrick_Durack abstract "Patrick Durack (March 1834 – 20 January 1893) was a pastoral pioneer in Western Australia.His family were struggling tenant farmers from Magherareagh near Scarriff in County Clare, Ireland who moved from Ireland to New South Wales in 1853. Two months after arriving in New South Wales, his father, Michael was accidentally killed. He settled his mother and siblings, and moved to Victoria, he returned 18 months later with ₤1000.On the 31 July 1862 he married Mary Costello, only daughter of Michael Costello, a native of Co. Tipperary and his wife Mary Tully, a native of Co. Galway. Patrick and Mary had eight children (two of whom died in infancy), including Michael Durack. Goulburn provided insufficient outlets for Durack's energy, land hunger and organizing powers. Along with his brother Michael and brother-in-law John Costello, they set out to establish a property in South West Queensland in 1863. Drought conditions almost killed the men, but they continued around the country pegging claims to some 17,000 square miles.Durack and his brother Michael trekked across the north of the continent from their property on Coopers Creek in Queensland which they left from in 1879 along with 7250 breeding cattle and 200 horses to the Kimberley region of Western Australia near Kununurra where they arrived in 1882. The 3,000 miles (4,828 km) journey of cattle to stock Argyle Downs and Ivanhoe Station is the longest of its type ever recorded.In 1885, he retired to Brisbane. Later that year he purchased gold-crushing machinery from Sydney and began mining on the Kimberley goldfields. In 1889 he learned that financial disaster had overtaken his Queensland interests. He died in Fremantle on 20 January 1893.Kings in Grass Castles is a 1959 novel based on his life and times by his granddaughter Dame Mary Durack. It was the subject of a TV mini-series.".
