On the day of 10 June 1838, a twelve armed stockmen rounded up 40 to 50 Aboriginal women, children and elderly men at Myall Creek Station near Bingara in gold-bearing country of northern New South Wales. Many of these people were relatives of the Aboriginal men who worked with the station manager, William Hobbs. 28 Aborigines were murdered, and their bodies were then burnt.
The massacre was thought to be payback for the killing of several colonists in the area. However, most of those massacred were women and children.
