George Brunswick Smyth

George Brunswick Smyth (1815–1845) was a British Army officer and early settler in the Port Phillip District, now part of Melbourne in the state of Victoria.

[2] In 1839, Smyth arrived in the Port Phillip District, where he played a significant role in the early colonial administration.

He served as the officer-in-charge of the Port Phillip military police and was one of five founding members of the Melbourne Cricket Club, established in 1838.

[3] Smyth was also a member of the Melbourne Club, reflecting his integration into the social fabric of the burgeoning colonial settlement.
