That wasn’t all on the menu, sandwiches, scones, and slices were tempting also. Was it a hair raising rally for Paul Food wasn’t the only Connors, or the Massey Ferguson ‘ingredient’ for the week-end, tractor? locals and visitors with their miniatures, small engines, cars, tractors, trucks, etc., was on the ‘menu’ which were ‘poured’ over by those who displayed, and by those who wanted a look and perhaps remi- nisce, and wish they had one Proud horses pull the wagon and provide too like that. rides for those who don’t want to walk far.

Their efforts and willingness was wonderful. Although the ground was rather dusty which settled on some of the vehicles, the week-end was still voted a success and visitors were glad they came. Of course Lockington invites them to come again, and at any time, for another course of a ‘meal’ which can be dished up.

  • PRIORITY SITES REGISTER Information As at 30 November 2020
    PRIORITY SITES REGISTER Information as at 30 November 2020 The Priority Sites Register is updated monthly and the information on it may not be accurate, current or complete and may be subject to change without notice. EPA has a key responsibility in protecting beneficial uses of land. Many of these uses are regulated or controlled through a range of measures to prevent contamination of land and groundwater. Land contaminated by former waste disposal, industrial and similar activities is frequently discovered during changes to land use - for example, from industrial to residential use. In most cases these can be managed at the time that the change of land use occurs. Some sites however, present a potential risk to human health or to the environment and must be dealt with as a priority. Such sites are typically subject to clean-up and/or management under EPA directions. WHAT ARE PRIORITY SITES? Priority Sites are sites for which EPA has issued a Clean Up Notice pursuant to section 62A, or a Pollution Abatement Notice pursuant to section 31A or 31B (relevant to land and/or groundwater) of the EnvironmentEnvironment ProtectionProtection ActAct 1970.1970. Typically these are sites where pollution of land and/or groundwater presents a potential risk to human health or to the environment. The condition of these sites is not compatible with the current or approved use of the site without active management to reduce the risk to human health and the environment. Such management can include clean up, monitoring and/or institutional controls. The Priority Sites Register does not list sites managed by voluntary agreements or sites subject to management by planning controls (e.g.

  • Edward M. Curr and the Tide of History
    5. Decline and Fall In Recollections of Squatting in Victoria Edward M. Curr gives only a vague explanation for his leaving Victoria in February 1851, noting that he was ‘desirous of a change’ and wanted to travel through some of the countries ‘about which I had interested myself from boyhood’.1 There seems little doubt, however, that his father’s death three months earlier was a major catalyst in his decision; for a decade he had worked at the behest of his overbearing father, but was now free to pursue his own interests. Before he departed, arrangements were made regarding the runs he and his brothers had inherited. Richard Curr leased the southern squatting runs from his brothers and based himself at the Colbinabbin station. The northern runs (including Tongala) were let to a Mr Hodgson, although it appears that one or more of the younger Curr brothers might have assisted him with station management.2 Meanwhile, Edward, Charles and Walter departed the colony only a few months before the discovery of gold threw the pastoral industry into turmoil. Curr’s younger sister Florence recorded in a memoir that Richard established a home for his mother and younger siblings at Colbinabbin. As the closest station to Melbourne, Colbinabbin had occasionally been a winter residence for the wider Curr family. Richard’s principal challenge was maintaining his labour force, as the station was only 40 miles from the Bendigo goldfields. Eleven-year-old Florence later recalled that she had a marvellous time at Colbinabbin, blissfully unaffected by ‘the troubles of Richard in finding and still more in keeping shepherds’.3 The labour shortage is the principal reason why Richard, in consultation with his mother, decided to sell the squatting runs in 1852.

  • A Station Formed at Tongala’
    3. ‘A Station Formed at Tongala’ In July 1841 Edward M. Curr arrived at his new 50-square-mile squatting run, which he named ‘Tongala’. He later recalled the derivation of his station name: ‘The name was not by any means an apt one, as it is the Bangerang name for the River Murray.’ Tongala in fact straddled the Goulburn River; Curr set up his station headquarters on the river’s southern bank, about eight miles from its confluence with the Murray. He did not record the reason for his inappropriate usage of the name; it might have been the result of a misunderstanding, or perhaps Curr chose it for its aesthetic value, as he later opined that Aboriginal words were ‘frequently very euphonious’. When researching Aboriginal vocabularies several decades later, Curr noticed that many Aboriginal names had been ‘retained by the whites’, but noted their generally ‘mutilated condition’.1 At Tongala Curr encountered for the first time the Indigenous people who are the ancestors of the Yorta Yorta claimant group. According to Curr’s classification, his squatting run encompassed the traditional land of at least two clans: the Towroonban lived predominantly on the sandhills between the Goulburn and Murray rivers, while the more numerous Wongatpan congregated further north in the region known as the Moira. As Curr described it, these two clans constituted the true ‘Bangerang’ tribe, although they belonged to a wider tribal federation linked by language. Curr described various other related clans in surrounding areas, with which he was less familiar, including the Wollithiga, Kailtheban, Boongātpan, Pikkolātpan, Angōōtheraban, Ngarrimōwro, Moītheriban and Toolinyāgan.

He said, ‘Since time immemorial women have borne the brunt of domestic tasks when their men have gone to war. No-where was this more apparent than in agricultural communities. Their greatest task, though, was managing the immeasurable grief when formal telegrams were delivered conveying the most dreadful of news: killed in action, missing believed killed or wounded in action.

  • Parish and Township Plan Numbers
    Parish and Township plan numbers This is a complete list of Victorian parishes and townships, together with plan numbers assigned by the Victorian Department of Crown Lands and Survey at some point between 1950 and 1970. The list has been reproduced from the Vicmap Reference Tables on the Department of Sustainability and Environment's land information website. Browse the list or use a keyword search to identify the plan number/s for a location. The plans are listed alphabetically. Townships and parishes are inter-sorted on the list. Some entries refer to locations within parishes or townships; these entries may be duplicated. The plan number can be used to locate copies of plans that PROV holds in the series VPRS 16171 Regional Land Office Plans Digitised Reference Set. For example, using the Search within a Series page on the PROV online catalogue with series number '16171' and the text '5030' will return the specific plans relating to the township of Ballarat. In this case, searching for 'Ballaarat' by name will return al the plans in the Ballarat land district, covering much of central and western Victoria. PROV does not hold copies of plans for the locations highlighted in pale yellow below. In most cases this is because parish-level plans were not created for areas such as national parks, where there were few land transactions to record. Plans showing these locations can be downloaded from the landata website under the section 'Central Plan Office Records'. 5001 Township of Aberfeldy 2016 Parish of Angora 2001 Parish of Acheron 2017
