    SIR RICHARD BOURKE
    General Sir Richard Bourke, KCB (4 May 1777  12 August 1855), was an Irish-born British Army
    officer who served as Governor of New South Wales from 1831 to 1837. As a lifelong Whig
    (Liberal), he encouraged the emancipation of convicts and helped bring forward the ending of penal
    transportation to Australia. In this, he faced strong opposition from the landlord establishment and
    its press. He approved a new settlement on the Yarra River, and named it Melbourne, in honour
    of the incumbent British prime minister, Lord Melbourne.
