Early life
Alfred William Compigné was born at Gosport, Hampshire, England on 2 February 1818. He immigrated to Sydney, New South Wales on 30 June 1839, coming to Queensland in 1846.[1]
Alfred Compigné acquired Nindooinbah Station on the Albert River and was the first pastoralist to take up land on the coast south of Coomera. He applied successfully for the leasehold of two properties to the south of Brisbane settlement being Dungogie and Murry Jerry runs in March 1852. Just five months later in August 1952 he transferred the coastal runs to William Duckett White of Beaudesert Station.[2] In his footnotes regarding Compigne, Longhurst accounts that while Compigne ran up to 7,000 sheep on Nindooinbah Station he eventually failed as a squatter.Шаблон:Citation needed
