Loosely included is "150th Anniversary of Murray Shipping" by Frank Tucker [20 page chronology of Murray shipping]. Robust, professional packaging and tracking provided for all parcels. 28 pages. William Richard Randell, paddle-steamer owner and politician, was born in Devon, England and with his family he migrated with free passages to South Australia in the Hartley and arrived at Glenelg on 20 October 1837. The family lived near Hackney Bridge. He later held land with his father along the banks of the Murray and it was here, while minding cattle, that he "became determined to be the first man to put a steamboat on the river". With his brother John he rented his father's flour-mill and in 1852, aware of the gold-diggings, he "thought it time to start the steamboat" though he had never seen one. Carpenters and his brothers cut the timber for the hull at Gumeracha and the frame was carted by bullocks over the hills to Mannum. The engine was built in Adelaide by a German engineer and a blacksmith made the boiler to Randell's novel design. The hull, 56 feet [17m] long, was completed in February 1853 and in March the steamboat Mary Ann, having cost about £1800, made a successful trial run. Randell's first trading voyage began on 25 March but low water below Lake Bonney forced him to return to Mannum.…
