Thomas Rose (died 3 March 1837) was an early pioneer in the settlement of the British colony in New South Wales. After being transported for housebreaking, he established himself as first a baker, and then later a publican in Sydney. His grant and purchase of land in the Campbelltown area saw some of the earliest water conservation for agriculture in the colony, and the construction of one of the first windmills. There was more than one Thomas Rose who played a pioneering role in the New South Wales colony. For the purposes of distinguishing them, this one is often known as Thomas Rose of Mount Gilead.[1] Early lifeRose was transported as a convict to New South Wales for breaking and entering. A fact he denied, to perpetuate a myth that he an migrated a free settler.[2] Baker and PublicanIn 1810, Rose received a land grant on the south-east corner of King and (what is now) Castlereagh streets in Sydney, where he built a bakery, and the neighbouring Rose and Crown Inn.[3] He held horse races in a neighbouring paddock, dubbed Roses Paddock [4] Mount GileadRose is closely associated water conservation, and pioneering the land surrounding Campbelltown. He also built a windmill on the Mount Gilead estate. LegacyThomas Rose died at Mount Gilead in 1837.[5] He was buried on the estate, and his remains were later transferred to St Peter's Anglican Cemetery in Campbelltown, where a monument stands.[6] The suburb of Rosemeadow is named after him, as is Thomas Rose Drive in that suburb.[7] See also
