- Paddy Hannan's miner's rightPatrick "Paddy" Hannan was a gold prospector whose discovery on June 17 1893 near Kalgoorlie, Western Australia set off a gold rush in the area. Born in Quin, County Clare, Ireland, Hannan was the son of John Hannan and Bridget Lynch. Not much is known about the family history . He emigrated to Australia in 1863. Hannan, Tom Flanagan and Daniel Shea discovered gold near Mount Charlotte less than 40 kilometres from the Coolgardie Goldfields. Hannan, Flanagan and Shea were following a numer of prospectors headed off to Mt. Yule 60 km East of Coolgardie. Having waited in Coolgardie for supplies the three Irishman moved off to follow the main body of Prospectors three days after the main body of men left. Everyone had waited at Mt Charlotte for supplies and water before moving off further East, so the three Irishman caught up to the prospectors. The night before the body of men moved out, Hannan found gold in a gully. Not wanting to cause a rush, he informed Flanagan and Shea of what he found. During the night they moved their horse into the scrub. The following morning Hannan informed the main party they were going to stay behind to find their lost horse. The main group moved off east and the three men started to pick up the gold. Having pegged out their lease, Hannan the only one that was litterate raced off to Coolgardie to register the claim. After registering his claim of over 100 ounces of alluvial gold, an estimated 700 men were prospecting in the area within three days. In 1904, at the age of sixty-one, having prospected for all his adult life, Hannan was granted an annual pension of £100 by the Government of Western Australia. He ceased his prospecting activities in 1910, and moved to live with two nieces in Brunswick, Melbourne. He died there in 1925. The main street and a suburb in Kalgoorlie both bear his name and in 1929 a statue of him by sculptor John MacLeod, was erected there. A popular Irish pub at the Burswood Entertainment Complex is also named after him. There is a plaque dedicated to his memory opposite Quin Abbey, Quin, County Clare in the Republic of Ireland.

- Patrick „Paddy“ Hannan war ein Goldprospektor, der am 17. Juni 1893 bei Kalgoorlie-Boulder in Western Australia durch einen Goldfund einen Goldrausch auslöste. Hannans Eltern waren John Hannan und Bridget Lynch. Er emigrierte 1862 nach Australien. Hannan, Tom Flanagan und Daniel Shea entdeckten Gold, als ihre Pferde ihre Hufeisen in der Nähe des Mount Charlotte 40 Kilometer von den Coolgardie-Goldfeldern entfernt verloren. Nachdem sie ihren Claim registriert hatten, fanden sie über 100 Unzen Gold und drei Tage nach der Anmeldung waren 700 Goldprospektoren auf diesem Goldfeld. Im Jahre 1904 erhielt Hannan eine jährliche Pension von £100 von der Regierung von Western Australia zugesprochen. Er beendete seine Aktivitäten zur Goldsuche 1910 und ging nach Brunswick bei Melbourne. Er starb dort im Jahre 1925. Die Hauptstraße und eine Vorstadt von Kalgoorlie tragen seinen Namen und 1929 wurde eine Statue von ihm von dem Bildhauer John MacLeod dort aufgestellt. Ein öffentlicher Irishpub in Burswood Entertainment Complex ist ebenso nach ihm benannt. Eine Reliefplatte mit seinem Portrait ist an der Quin Abbey in Quin in Irland angebracht.
