John Oxley (1783-1828), naval officer, surveyer and explorer, was granted 600 acres at Camden in 1810, known as Kirkham Place. This grant was cancelled in 1815 and a new deed issued increasing the land to 1,000 acres. In 1855 a grant of 5,000 acres was made to his 2 sons, John Norton Oxley and Henry Molesworth Oxley, at Wingecarribee in recognition of their father's work.
