Orr and Honeyman

Circled in red are Store no. 1 (closest) and Store no. 2, constructed by Orr and Honeyman. The photograph was taken in the 1870s.
With a view to making their fortunes, Matthew Brown Orr and James Honeyman arrived in Moreton Bay from Scotland on the Helenslee on 6 August 1862. To create an address for their enterprise they chose Queen’s Wharf, specifically allotment no. 5 which they purchased from its first owner, Thomas Dowse, sometime in 1863.
