Best Answer

Edmund Kennedy's only new discovery came on his second expedition. In 1847, Kennedy volunteered to continue where Major Thomas Mitchell's previous expedition, which he had accompanied, had left off, exploring the Victoria River. After finding that the Victoria River flowed into Cooper's Creek, he renamed the 'Victoria' the Barcoo, and discovered and named the Thomson River. He then traced the Warrego River as far as he could, until there was nothing left to trace.
