Distinguished and Famous people from Mullewa

📺 Ernie Dingo

Ernie Dingo grew up in Mullewa, with family, sport and Country forming an enduring part of his life. In a later NITV interview, he recalled both childhood games with his siblings and the racism he encountered at the local primary school. A move to Perth opened the way to cultural performance and acting, followed by a television career encompassing drama, presenting and comedy. His work has also involved explaining cultural perspectives and helping shape the stories in which he appeared. Dingo’s public familiarity sits alongside a continuing personal attachment to the Murchison region and people who knew him as a child.

⛪ John Cyril Hawes

John Cyril Hawes combined the vocations of priest and architect, and Mullewa holds one of the clearest expressions of that unusual working life. As the local parish priest, he designed the Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the adjoining priesthouse, creating buildings closely associated with his years in the town. Construction of the church progressed in stages while other architectural commissions took him elsewhere in the Mid West. He also built the nearby First World War memorial in 1928. The priesthouse preserves material connected with his life and work. Hawes’ local legacy joins daily parish service with an architectural imagination that gave a small country town a distinctive landmark.
