Macquarie, New South Wales
James Meehan is known as the local pioneer of Macquarie Fields. Sent to Sydney in 1789 as a convict involved in the Irish Rebellion, he became a free man in 1805. Five years later, he became Surveyor-General.
Around 1810, Governor Macquarie allocated to him 2020 acres, known as Macquarie Field, in what is now the modern Macquarie Fields. After retiring in 1822, he became a farmer, and grew wheat, barley, maize, vegetables, an orchard and grazed livestock.
Many roads have been named after famous figures, including Victoria Road (Queen Victoria), Parliament Road (after Federation) and Church Street (after a baptist church).
The suburb grew, and a town centre was estblished. This originally consisted of a delicatessen, a bakery and a butcher, but has now extended into an Internet Cafe, a Pizza Shop and a Chinese Restaurant.
The area since then has become more diverse, with many more cultures being introduced. Private-sector housing grew in the area, and spread north across the suburb.
A High School was established in 1981 as a temporary facility. However, due to growing enrolments in Ingleburn and James Meehan High Schools, it became permanent in 1985.
