What was Paddy Hannan famous for?
Paddy Hannan was inadvertently the founder of the town of Kalgoorlie. Hannan came to Southern Cross in Western Australia in 1889, hoping he would strike gold, as it was not far from the established goldfields of Coolgardie. He and fellow prospectors Tom Flanagan and Daniel Shea accidentally discovered gold on 17 June 1893, starting the goldrush that led to the development of the town of Kalgoorlie. The men were actually searching for a horse which had strayed away. It took only three days after Hannan registered his claim before about 700 men were prospecting in the area. Hannan is still remembered through a statue of him in Kalgoorlie. The main street and a railway station in Kalgoorlie are both named after him. Hannan's discovery, in leading to Kalgoorlie becoming a gold-rush town, also opened up the arid west for settlement. In 1903 a pipeline was opened to convey water 560 kilometres from a supply near Perth. Not only did it bring water to the goldfield towns, it also brought irrigation to the wheatbelt towns along its route.
