William Nowland (September 1804 – April 28, 1884) was the son of Second Fleet convicts Michael Nowland and Elizabeth Richards, and the discoverer of Nowlands Gap, the "gateway" to the Liverpool Plains and first road into the Hunter Region. His body laid to rest near Singleton, New South Wales. His headstone is huge and reads; "Earth to earth, Dust to Dust. Calmly now the words we say. Leaving him to sleep in trust. Till the Resurrection-day. Father, in thy gracious keeping, leave we now thy servant sleeping."
