History
Hebersham was coined to honour the Anglican Bishop Reginald Heber of Calcutta whose diocese included New South Wales. In 1829 the Trustees of the Clergy and Schools Lands in New South Wales planned to establish a village named Hebersham on the Western Highway, west of Eastern Creek. This never happened, but the name was used for this present day suburb.
