The Tripcony family holds a significant place in Caloundra's early history, particularly through the contributions of the Tripcony brothers—John, George, Thomas, and Andrew. The family were among the first European settlers in the region, arriving in the late 1800s.
Thomas Tripcony was especially notable for establishing the first general store in Caloundra, a key development that supported the growing community. His store became an essential hub for the local settlers, providing goods and supplies in the early days of the township. This entrepreneurial spirit was a hallmark of the Tripcony family's role in the area's early economy.
Andrew Tripcony, like his brothers, was involved in the family’s fishing and oystering businesses, which were some of the first industries in Caloundra. The family operated along the Pumicestone Passage, where they managed oyster leases and fished local waters, laying the foundation for the town’s development.
The Tripcony name is still well-known in Caloundra, with local landmarks such as Tripcony Lane and Tripcony Inlet serving as reminders of the family's lasting impact on the region's history and growth. Their contributions helped shape Caloundra into the coastal community it is today.
