Alluvial gold was found in the area in 1895 by the prospector Dennis O'Callaghan, which sparked a gold rush on the Hampton Plains Estate lease. Another prospector and field manager, Captain Henry Fey, established the Feysville mine in 1896, and by 1897 the local progress association began to campaign for the town to be declared.
