Martin Mason (pioneer)
Martin Mason (circa 1765 – 1812) was a surgeon, magistrate and commander who is notable as a pioneer settler of Australia, and also as a supporter of Captain Bligh following the 1808 Rebellion at Sydney, New South Wales.
==Early career==
Martin Mason was born in Cumbria, England, possibly in the village of Moreland, and studied medicine at Greenwich Hospital near London. He sailed for Sydney as surgeon on the '' Britannia '', arriving on 18 July 1798.〔http://www.jenwilletts.com/ConvictShipsB.htm#Britannia 1798〕 At this date, the colony of New South Wales was barely ten years old. Martin Mason rose to prominence in the early days of the colony, being appointed as Assistant Colonial Surgeon by Governor Philip Gidley King in 1801 and magistrate for the districts of Parramatta and Toongabbie in 1802.〔Evatt, H. V., Rum Rebellion, Angus & Robertson, London, 1967〕 In 1802, Mason received a land grant of 300 acres〔Ryan, A J., Land Grants, Australian Documents Library, Canberra, 1981〕 from Governor King at Mulgrave Place in the Hawkesbury Settlement, making him one of the earliest colonists to develop land outside the new town of Sydney. At the end of 1803, he was discharged from his duties as Assistant Surgeon and opened the first medical practice in Australia at Green Hills (present day Windsor).〔Blunden, T. W., 'Mason, Martin', Australian Dictionary of Biography, Volume 2, Melbourne University Press, 1967, pp 213-214.〕
