- The site of Port Adelaide, first sighted by Captain Collet Barker in 1831, and discovered by Captain John Jones in 1834, was officially proclaimed a harbour on 6 January 1837 when Harbour Master Captain Thomas Lipson took up residence on the shore of the Port Creek. Although the colony's surveyor, William Light believed it would make a good harbour, he was not prepared to make it the site for the capital for South Australia. Passengers and goods were landed, but not to the satisfaction of anybody and it very soon became known as Port Misery. Port Misery officially became Port Adelaide on 23 May 1837 but it was not until 1839 that a new site was agreed on and McLaren Wharf built.
