What horse is the brumby?

This word came from the Aborigines of what is now southwest Queensland, the people of the Balonne, Nebine, Nogoa, Warrego and Bulloo River regions. However, there was also a Sergeant James Brumby who left some of his livestock behind when he left New South Wales for new property in Tasmania.Brumbies are found throughout Australia. from the harsh outback, to the coastal regions (and Fraser Island, the world's largest sand island), to the Alpine country of southern NSW and northern Victoria.Brumbies come from the stock of horses all over the world, including South Africa, British draught horses, thoroughbreds and Arabians. In the high country, horses descended from the Timor Pony are prevalent, and it was one of these which featured in Banjo Paterson's famous poem The Man From Snowy River.

Where does a brumby come from?
I hope you are talking about the wild bush horses of the Australian High Country, these are the only Brumbies I know. Every OZ knows what a Brumby is but few know how they got their name. Way back in the 19th century a man ran a property up in the Great Dividing Range out Canberra way long before that place became a town and then the OZ capital. The place failed and the man gave up. He had a lot of horses on the property so he just opened the gates to let them fend for themselves. the mans name was John Brumby. Whenever the horses showed up and someone asked 'who's horses' some one would answer 'they are Brumby's horses' eventually it was shortened to 'they're Brumbies' They survived very well and all those wild horses you see up in the range, they are the descendants of that mob.
