Rivett Henry Bland
Rivett Henry Bland (2 February 1811 – 18 February 1894) was a government administrator in colonial Australia.
Bland was the son of Dr. Thomas Bland, and was born at Newark, Nottinghamshire, on 2 February 1811. He was educated at the Grammar School, Newark, and studied for the medical profession at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London.
==Western Australia==
Leaving England in May 1829, for Western Australia, he arrived in August, and after a short interval was appointed by the Governor Sir James Stirling to settle the York district, about seventy miles distant from Perth. In this locality he remained for a number of years as resident magistrate, his principal duty being to protect the settlers from the aboriginals, with whose language and customs he obtained an intimate acquaintance. Towards the end of 1848 he accompanied Captain Charles Fitzgerald, who had in the meantime become Governor of Western Australia, in the capacity of private secretary, on an expedition to Champion Bay, for the purpose of examining a lode of galena, discovered on the Murchison River by Mr. Augustus C. Gregory. The party consisted of the Governor, Mr. Bland, Mr. Gregory, three soldiers, and a servant. The discovery was verified, but on the return journey the Governor was speared in the leg by the aboriginals, and Mr. Bland had a narrow escape.
