Angus McMillan
Angus McMillan, (14 August 1810 – 18 May 1865),〔 was an explorer, mass murderer and pioneer pastoralist in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. Arriving in Australia in 1838, he rose swiftly in colonial society, amassing significant wealth through the hunting of Aborigines; massacring them and then using their land for grazing. To expand and stabilise his pastoral interests, he led many of the Gippsland massacres of 1840-1850, which killed or drove away the region's indigenous population.〔Gardner, P.D.. (2001) , Gippsland massacres: the destruction of the Gunai tribes, 1800–1860, Ngarak Press, Essay, Victoria ISBN 1-875254-31-5〕 The Victorian Federal electorate McMillan is named for him.〔Australian Electoral Commission (Profile of the electoral division of McMillan (Vic) ) Retrieved on 11 September 2012〕
