Robert Mewburn
Robert Mewburn (1827–1891) was a convict transported to Western Australia, who later became one of the colony's ex-convict school teachers.
Born in 1827, Robert Mewburn lived at Stockton on Tees, Durham, and worked as a printer and clerk, but was convicted of "stealing boots and larceny" and sentenced to seven years' transportation. He arrived in Western Australia on board the ''Pyrenees'' in May 1853. He received his ticket of leave on arrival in the colony, and was issued with a conditional pardon the following year. We worked for Thomas Peel at first, and later ran a general store at Mandurah. He also acted as a lay preacher in the area.
Mewburn apparently began also began informal school teaching, and on 16 March 1870 he married one of his students, fifteen-year-old Emma Eacott, with whom he would have seven children. In 1872 he organised a petition for a regular teacher in the Mandurah area, and this resulted in him being appointed government schoolmaster. He then built his own school, and taught there until his death in 1891.
