Bushrangers


The word bushrangers came from the Australian language in the 19th century. The first meaning for the word bushranger was people who attacked peole on the road or in the bush.


More than 2000 bushrangers were belived to have romed the Australian countryside, beggining with the convicts bolters and drawing to a close after Ned Kellys last stand at Glenrowen.


Bushrangers were origanally used to discribe predatory escaped convicts fleeting from the Australian penal colonies. Most of hem stole horses as thier first crime.
The first bushranger was said to be Jhon "Black" Ceaser.
