The first known recorded sighting of the waterfall today called ' waterfall gully " by a colonial was that of John William Adams, an emigrant of H.M.S. Buffalo in early January 1837, who named it "Adams' Waterfall". http://www.slsa.sa.gov.au/fh/passengerlists/1836Buffalo.htm He was traveling with his wife, Susanna [ nee Fabian }and a party consisting of Nicholson's and Breaker's who had the use of a dray to go into the hills. Adams states "we were opposite the spot where the Eagle on the Hill now is, and the question was put, who would volunteer to go down the hillside to try for water". . ADAMS John William aged 29 ADAMS Susannah nee FABIAN 27 ADAMS Sarah aged 7 ADAMS John William jnr. aged 5 ADAMS James Joseph aged 3 ADAMS Thomas George aged 18 months . That the first marriage in South Australia between an Aborigine, Kudnarto, and a European, Tom Adams, was solemnised on 27 January 1848. Kudnarto, who could read and write English would later teach her illiterate husband to write. by German refugees on the banks of the river Torrens in a tent. . The Adelaide Mosque was built in 1888, and is the oldest mosque in Australia. Its original four minarets were added in 1903. Muslims from as far away as Broken Hill and Kalgoorlie gathered at least once a year at the Adelaide Mosque, usually for the Fast of Ramadan. In 1890 it was reported that 80 Afghans were present to observe this important festival. Islam was introduced to Australia in the 1860s with the arrival of the first cameleers, brought to Australia to handle recently introduced camel teams. Thomas Elder brought 124 camels and 31 handlers to South Australia in 1865, establishing a stud at Beltana. The handlers came to be known as 'Afghans' or 'Syrians' although they were actually from various countries, including Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Adelaide_Mosque .
