Surname: Biraban (Indigenous)
First Name: -
Ship: -
Date: -
Place: Lake Macquarie
Source: An Australian Language as spoken by the Awabakal, the people of Awaba, Lake Macquarie, being an account of their language, traditions and customs - Lancelot Threlkeld
Details: Analysis of the name Biraban - The word is formed from Bira, the cry of the bird which we call the Eagle hawk. The -ban postfixed denotes the one who does the action. As applied to McGill, the name may have been given to him from some circumstance in his infancy, perhaps his infantile cry. Eagle Hawk may have been his totem or family name; or, as our blackfellows name their children from some trivial incident at the time of birth, he may have been called Biraban, becaue an eagle hawk was seen or heard then

Surname: Biraban (Magill) (Wepohng) (Indigenous)
First Name: -
Ship: -
Date: 1820s
Place: Newcastle / Lake Macquarie
Source: Glenrock Lagoon Cultural Landscape Conservation Management and Cultural Tourism Plan NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service
Details: The Awabakal man who stands out in the historical record is Wepohng, better known as Biraban or Magill. He was clearly a superb linguist and a great teacher and is probably largely responsible, through translation, for much of the information Threlkeld collected. He moved freely between Lake Macquarie and Newcastle and was well acquainted with the various routes through the SRA. Born c. 1800 he had spent time in Sydney, where he learnt to speak English fluently. In 1821 he was sent with Captain Francis Allman to set up the new penal settlement at Port Macquarie, where he also acted as bush constable. On his return to Newcastle he married Tipahmahah, by whom he had a son Yerowwa/Francis, born in 1823 (Gunson 1974: 317)
