The Cleveland Bay Express began publication in March 1866. From 7 November 1868, Henry Bohm served as editor until his death on 1 September 1872. Employed by Bohm's widow, James Henderson only remained as editor for 9 months until he too died. His widow's brother, Charles E. Carkeet, married Mrs Bohm two months later in August 1874. Mrs Carkeet continued to manage the Express while her new husband worked as editor. On 1 September 1875 the paper was purchased by A. J. Boyd, who sold it on to Thomas Williams on 22 April 1876. In August 1876 it merged with The Townsville Times to become The Townsville Herald.

The Townsville Herald resulted from the merger of The Cleveland Bay Express with The Townsville Times in August 1876. Initially co-owned by James McManus, formerly of the Times, and Thomas Williams, formerly of the Express, McManus became sole proprietor from 1 December 1876. In September 1884, the Herald was purchased, along with The Townsville Daily Bulletin and The North Queensland Bulletin, by a limited liability company. The North Queensland Bulletin was incorporated into the Herald, which became the weekly edition of the Townsville Daily Bulletin until it was replaced by The North Queensland Herald in 1891.
In 1880 the Sydney Bulletin commented on the high turn-over of editors at The Townsville Herald, reaching thirteen in a two year period.
