A. B. ("Banjo") Paterson (1864-1941) Brief Biography Andrew Barton Paterson was born at Narambla Station near Orange in New South Wales in 1864. He grew up near Yass in NSW and attended school in the small town of Binalong, and later in Sydney. He started out as a lawyer's clerk before being admitted as a solicitor. After the publication of The Man From Snowy River and Other Verses in 1895, he became something of a literary celebrity in Australia. He travelled widely throughout the country and also was war correspondent in the Boer War in South Africa, and covered the Boxer Rebellion in China. He was later to become editor of the Sydney Evening News and then the Australian Town and Country Journal . At the outbreak of World War I he travelled to Europe to cover the conflict but was unable to get to the front in France. Frustrated by this he returned to Australia and joined the Remount Service which supplied horses for the Australian cavalry in the Middle East. After the War he returned to Sydney, journalism and writing poetry and prose. Paterson is best remembered as the the author of Waltzing Matilda - Australia's unofficial national anthem.

W ebmasters Note: For those of us involved in not only the collection of data for "The Waltzing Matilda Story" web site, but the bigger "picture" of Waltzing Matilda, Andrew Barton Banjo Paterson, along with Christina Rutherford Macpherson, are, and will always be, very special Australians. It is not possible to do justice to the life and time of "A B" in the space available and at the same time keep the readers interest over a few monitor screens. As such, what follows is an all but too brief overview of the man to whom the swagman/shearers of the 1890's, and those of us who have followed them, owe a great debt. Banjo has immortalised the Australian spirit in a song for what ever reason has been braced by the nation as typically Australian. Although the greater percentage of Australians had, or may still have, no idea what the song really meant or why it was written, they could still identify with the ethos of a fair go . Waltzing Matilda is, and will always be - The ballad of the

He was in western Queens land in January 1895 when he penned Waltzing Matilda at old Dagworth Station.  The Original Dagworth Homestead - 26th September 1894. Banjo Peterson's hand written manuscript of Waltzing Matilda Christina Macpherson's hand written manuscript of Waltzing Matilda There have been a few different versions of Waltzing Matilda over the years. And as I have found out recently he didn't write a word about 'Once a jolly swag man..'  this is what he actually wrote:- Waltzing Matilda Oh, there once was a swagman camped in the billabong,  Under the shade of a coolibah tree,  And he sang as he looked at the old billy boiling,  Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?  Chorus  Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda my darling,  Who'll come a-waltzing Matilda with me?

The family owned a race horse named Banjo and in his earlier writings for the Bulletin, Paterson used the pseudonym 'The Banjo'. Banjo Paterson was born at Narambla Station, New South Wales but considered his home on Illalong Station near Yass, New South Wales as his childhood home. Many experiences during his childhood where he was in contact with drovers, bushrangers, and teamsters became the basis for his writings including the Australian Bush Myths. Paterson was the eldest child of Andrew Bogle Paterson, an immigrant to Australia in 1850, and Rose Isabella (nee Barton). Banjo began his education at the small country school in Binalong and later was sent to Sydney (Gladesville) where he lived with his widowed grandmother Emily Mary Barton.

Stoke it in, boys! the half-cooked ham, The rich ragout and the charming cham., I've got to mix my liquor; Give me a gander's gaunt hind leg, Hard and tough as a wooden peg, And I'll keep it down with a hard-boiled egg, 'Twill make me dream the quicker. Now that I'm full of fearful feed, Oh, but I'll dream of a winner indeed In my restless, troubled slumber; While the night-mares race through my heated brain And their devil-riders spur amain, The trip for the Cup will reward my pain, And I'll spot the winning number. Thousands and thousands and thousands more, Like sands on the white Pacific shore
