In 1891, Milperra, a suburb located in New South Wales, Australia, was a small, rural area situated along the Georges River. Known for its fertile land, Milperra was primarily used for farming and agriculture, with dairy farming being a significant activity. The suburb was sparsely populated, characterised by a close-knit community reliant on the river for irrigation and transportation. Its name, derived from an Indigenous Australian term meaning "a gathering place by the water," reflected its historical significance as a meeting point for local Aboriginal peoples. At the time, Milperra was far removed from the urban development of nearby Sydney, retaining a quiet, pastoral charm.
