The first settlement on the Foxhey islands occurred shortly after the cessation of the First Bush War. In 1801 the Corwn Governor of the Arcer colony sent a trio of whaling ships escorted by a Royal Arcer Naval Service sloop to explore the Northern portions of the Malentine Sea. Finding the bay that would eventually become Port Gibson, they established a small shore post from where they could survey the larger and smaller islands of the area. Originally named the "Gibson Settlement" after the sloop's Captain, Frederick Gibson, it was later renamed Foxhey upon a declaration by the Ardmori Crown. | The first settlement on the Foxhey islands occurred shortly after the cessation of the First Bush War.
