The gold rush began in Western Australia when prospectors Arthur Bayley and William Ford found a rich reef of gold in 1892, which they named "Bayley's Reward" at the site of Coolgardie, a small town which lies about 570km east of Perth, Western Australia.
Irishman Paddy Hannan discovered gold at Mount Charlotte, less than 40 kilometres from the Coolgardie Goldfields, a year later in 1893, sparking off the Kalgoorlie goldrush.

The First Fleet was the fleet in which the first permanent settlers travelled to Australia. Consisting of convicts, marines and officers, the members of the First Fleet literally built Australia from nothing but bushland. Australia Day celebrates the arrival of the First Fleet and the beginning of European colonisation of the continent. Unfortunately, the First Fleet is also important to the indigenous people of Australia, as it signifies the beginning of their displacement from their own tribal lands, and the resultant loss of aboriginal culture.
Wikipedia tells us the following: Catholicism in Australia began with the Irish convicts and the priests who ministered to them and to later free Irish settlers. William Bernard Ullathorne (1806-1889) was instrumental in influencing Pope Gregory XVI to establish the hierarchy in Australia. Ullathorne was in Australia from 1833-1836 as vicar-general to Bishop William Morris (1794-1872), whose jurisdiction extended over the Australian missions. The Catholic Australia website tells us more. The first Catholics arrived in Australia in 1788. Fr James Dixon was one of the first priests to arrive in 1800, but he eventually left. In 1820 Fr John Therry and Fr Philip Connolly arrived, and this is considered to be the formal beginnings for Catholicism in Australia. Archbishop John Bede Polding was appointed as the first bishop in Australia in 1832.
