William Bull (landowner)

William Thomas Bull (1867 - 1956) was an early Australian landowner in the Riverina region, Australia.

Later other members of the family joined them and they took up land in the Jondaryan region (now known as Griffith).

They suffered horrific droughts during 1896 and 1899 in which the Jondaryan district survived thanks to William Bull's well which was 134 feet (41 m) deep.

William Bull purchased 5,000 acres (20 km2) from Sir Samuel McCaughey on Goolgumbla station out of Jerilderie.

The New South Wales village of Bilbul (located 6 kilometres north-east of Griffith) was named in honor of William Bull.
