Henry Bull (settler)

Lieutenant Henry Bull (1799 – c. 1848) was an early pioneer settler of the Swan River Colony in Western Australia.

He entered the Royal Navy in December 1813, and served in the West Indies and South America.

He and George Fletcher Moore are credited with the establishment and maintenance of friendly relations with the Indigenous people of the area.

In April 1835, Bull accompanied Moore on an expedition to the north of the Swan River.

The following year he was appointed as temporary captain of the colonial schooner Champion, which had just been purchased.
