Dan Morgan I was a bushranger in Victoria. I was finally taken by the police at Peechelba(RC12360) (RC15488)
I was a good role model for the KellyGang.
I was born about 1830 near Appin (Campbelltown) NSW.
I worked as a stockman.
In 1854 I got 12 years for robbery but escaped. I then 'looked after' the roads around Wagga.
In 1963 they said that I killed a policeman in 1863.
The side of the law offered a reward of £1000 for me dead or alive, as they say. Really dead or dead.
Mr Graves was involved in attempts to capture me.
I was finally captured.
I was shot in about 1865 at Peechalba station (by a station hand John Wendlan).
My headless body was buried in the Wangaratta Cemetery.
