Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Raby is a suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. Raby is located 55 kilometres south-west of the Sydney central business district, in the local government area of the City of Campbelltown and is part of the Macarthur region. Raby took its name from Raby Road. In 1976, the Geographical Names Board of New South Wales approved the name ''Raby'', using the justification that the new suburb was to be located off Raby Road, which for more than 150 years had trailed across the hills linking the old Riley family property to Campbelltown. Alexander Riley (1778-1833) was a merchant and pastoralist who in 1809 was granted 3,000 acres (12 km2) on the corner of Bringelly and Cowpasture Roads. He called his estate Raby in honour of his mother, who had been Miss Margaret Raby. Apparently "Raby" had also been the name of a family property in England. He used his new Australian farm for sheep breeding, and also introduced the first cashmere goats into the colony.
