He was from the Upper Murray region and belonged to the Wahgunyah tribe. His native language was Wiradjuri. McRae lived and worked during the establishment of a pastoral settler society in his country. He worked at various pastoral stations in northern Victoria and is believed to have been a stockman for Andrew Hume at Brocklesby Station in Corowa, New South Wales, between 1849 and 1857. By 1865 he was living on David Reid's station on the Upper Murray. McRae's first drawings were collected between 1861 and 1864 by the sculptor Theresa Walker.
McRae created and sold drawing books that depicted traditional Aboriginal life, including ceremonies, hunting, and fishing. The depictions were primarily done as silhouettes in landscapes with sparse trees and earth. His works also included depictions of squatters and Chinese, as well as William Buckley, a man who lived among the Wathaurung for 30 years. Some of his drawings were included in the first edition of K. Langloh Parker's Australian Legendary Tales (1896). Unfortunately, McRae was not mentioned in this work, but his involvement was later confirmed by an examination of the papers of Andrew Lang, the book's editor.
In the 1860s, McRae settled on the shores of Lake Moodemere in Wahgunyah, Victoria. Roderick Kilborn, a Canadian vintner and telegraph master, became McRae's patron and protector in the early 1880s. Unfortunately, between 1890 and 1897, McRae's children were separated from him and sent to reservations in accordance with Victorian government regulations. McRae died on October 15, 1901, and was buried in the Carlyle Cemetery in Wahgunyah. His works are now on display in several major Australian institutions, including the National Museum of Australia, the National Gallery of Australia, the National Library of Australia Canberra, the State Library Victoria, the State Library of New South Wales, and the Melbourne Museum.
