New South Wales Legislative Council
The New South Wales Legislative Council, often referred to as the upper house, is one of the two chambers of the parliament of the Australian state of New South Wales. The other is the Legislative Assembly. Both sit at Parliament House in the state capital, Sydney.

Windradyne
Windradyne ( – 21 March 1829) was an Aboriginal warrior and resistance leader of the Wiradjuri nation, in what is now central-western New South Wales, Australia; he was also known to the British settlers as Saturday. Windradyne led his people in the Bathurst War, a frontier war between his clan and British settlers. Description Although only limited information about Windradyne is available, mainly from the contemporary British accounts, it is possible to put together an approximate description of the man. Windradyne's date of birth is unknown, but on his death in 1829 his obituary in '' The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser''—thought to be by his settler friend George Suttor from Brucedale Station north of Bathurst—stated "His age did not, I think, exceed 30 years", thus putting his year of birth at approximately 1800. It is believed he had no children and there are no descendants of his bloodline. Coe's biography of Windradyne from 1989 states that he was ...
