	History of Irvinebank by Mike O’Callaghan
		Jack and Newell and Brandon and Brown who first found tin in Herberton in the 1879-1880 period were perhaps mainly responsible for the finding of tin in other areas, Watsonville and in Irvinebank.
		He lived in Herberton until 1882, when he made an overseas visit to his native land, and he also embraced the opportunity of investigating the tin mines in Cornwall, and the mining and smelting works in Belgium and Germany.
		They arrived in Herberton about a week or so after their departure from Port Douglas, and the only other family that had reached there up to that period were the Bimroses.
