Moulamein /ˈmuːləmiːn/ is a small town in New South Wales, Australia, in the Murray River Council local government area.
[2] The town is located between Balranald, Hay, Deniliquin and Swan Hill, at the junction of the Edward River and Billabong Creek.
[3] However it is highly unlikely the township was established as early as 1830 considering that this was about the time of Charles Sturt’s exploration along the Murrumbidgee River just to the north of this region.
Morris took up pastoral runs on the Edward River and explored the country surrounding the site of present-day Moulamein.
Richard Edward Wright established the Moulamein Inn at the location in 1848 and was granted a licence for the hotel in February 1849.
