United Kingdom Emigration to Australian
New arrivals were often displaced people's and their backgrounds were much troubled, akin to refugees today, I presume. They bring with them the hope of a new life.
Some arrived as sailors or authorities and their children, free settlers drawn by opportunity in government positions or in prospecting for precious metal or land grants; others arrived under labour programs or as convicts such as those sentenced to 7-14 years for larceny in quarter sessions courts at Manchester, Lancashire and Sussex, England and their sentences commuted to transportation. Some came as immigrants boarding ships in Tipperary and reliant upon their kinsfolk as sponsors for their journey.
"Whoso prefers either Matrimony or other Ordinance before the Good of Man and the plain Exigence of Charity, let him profess Papist, or Protestant, or what he will, he is no better than a Pharisee."
- quote:- John Milton.
John Milton (9 December 1608 – 8 November 1674) was an English poet, polemicist, man of letters, and civil servant

Immigrants were a resourceful and interconnected group of pioneers and settled rural property, villages and towns predominantly under control of the English and those appointed by the English.
It may be said that the work with the railways brought Allan Egan to Blayney, where he met Ivy M Luck at the tennis club.
Allan's father Patrick was born in Fish River in 1872 and his birth registered in Hartley, New South Wales during the construction of the line which extended from Blayney on the Main Western Line south-west to Demondrille on the Main South Line. Allan's grandfather, Michael Egan, was a railway's ganger and worked on construction of this rail line, settling in Demondrille on completion.
Railway construction serviced the fertile agricultural areas between Blayney and Young, allowing trains to bypass the Blue Mountains and Sydney. Construction began north from Demondrille and then south from Blayney, and came together at the railway bridge over the Lachlan River, south of Cowra and was in use from 1st November 1876.
