Ernest Giles

William Ernest Powell Giles (20 July 1835 – 13 November 1897), best known as Ernest Giles, was an Australian explorer who led five major expeditions in central Australia.〔Louis Green, '(Giles, Ernest (1835–1897) )', ''Australian Dictionary of Biography'', Volume 4, Melbourne University Press, 1972, pp 246–247. Retrieved 22 November 2008〕
== Early life ==
Ernest Giles was born in Bristol, England, son of William Giles, a merchant, and Jane Elizabeth, ''née'' Powell. Giles was educated at Christ's Hospital school, Newgate, London. In 1850, at the age of 15, he emigrated to Australia, joining his parents, and took up residence in Adelaide, South Australia. In 1852 Giles went to the Victorian goldfields, then became a clerk at the Post Office in Melbourne, and later at the County Court. Soon tiring of town life Giles went to the back country and obtained valuable experience as a bushman. In 1865, he explored north-west of the Darling River in the Yancannia Range looking for pastoral country and land capable of cultivating hemp, as it was valuable for rope at the time.
