TypeSuburbDescriptionHenry Osborne received a grant of 2560 acres in the Yallah district. The property was named 'Marshall Mount' after his wife Sarah's maiden name". Unlike other early land grantees, Henry and Sarah settled at 'Marshall Mount' living at first in 'Pumpkin Cottage' in fairly primitive conditions. Before long Henry had acquired more land a further 5000 acres. He went on adding to his estates in the 1840's and secured Charles Throsby Smith's 'Calderwood', Elyard's 'Avondale', William Brown's 'Athanlin', Brook's 'Exmouth' and numerous smaller grants.
