Oregon's Civil
STACEY L. SMITH Oregon’s Civil War The Troubled Legacy of Emancipation in the Pacific Northwest WHERE DOES OREGON fit into the history of the U.S. Civil War? This is the question I struggled to answer as project historian for the Oregon Historical Society’s new exhibit — 2 Years, Month: Lincoln’s Legacy. The exhibit, which opened on April 2, 2014, brings together rare documents and artifacts from the Mark Family Collection, the Shapell Manuscript Founda- tion, and the collections of the Oregon Historical Society (OHS). Starting with Lincoln’s enactment of the final Emancipation Proclamation on January , 863, and ending with the U.S. House of Representatives’ approval of the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery on January 3, 86, the exhibit recreates twenty-five critical months in the lives of Abraham Lincoln and the American nation. From the moment we began crafting the exhibit in the fall of 203, OHS Museum Director Brian J. Carter and I decided to highlight two intertwined themes: Lincoln’s controversial decision to emancipate southern slaves, and the efforts of African Americans (free and enslaved) to achieve freedom, equality, and justice. As we constructed an exhibit focused on the national crisis over slavery and African Americans’ freedom struggle, we also strove to stay true to OHS’s mission to preserve and interpret Oregon’s his- tory. Our challenge was to make Lincoln’s presidency, the abolition of slavery, and African Americans’ quest for citizenship rights relevant to Oregon and, in turn, to explore Oregon’s role in these cataclysmic national processes. This was at first a perplexing task. -

2020 Reflections on Australian Foundation Narratives in January
2020 reflections on Australian foundation narratives In January 2019 the coincidence of three important events provided a rare moment to reflect on Australian history and its on-going relevance for Australians today. The first of these, Australia Day, has since 1988 - the bicentenary of European settlement, become a major public holiday and national anniversary celebrated on 26 January, the date historically that the colony of New South Wales was officially established with the raising of the Union flag in Sydney Cove in 1788. Prior to 1988, amongst the seven states and territories forming the national federation, the 26 January tended to be looked at as a singularly New South Wales anniversary, leaving the other states to celebrate anniversaries relating to their own distinct colonial foundations. It should be remembered that the initial British settlement in Australia was confined to the east coast of the continent, to that part claimed by Lieutenant James Cook in 1770 during his survey of the east coast on board the bark Endeavour. By 1787, in the commission appointing Arthur Phillip Governor of the new colony, the territory of New South Wales had grown considerably and was defined as: …extending from the northern cape or extremity of the coast, called Cape York, in latitude of ten degrees thirty-seven minutes south, to the southern extremity of the said territory of New South Wales or South Cape, in the latitude of Forty-three degrees thirty-nine minutes south, and of all the country inland to the westward, as far as the one hundred and thirty-fifth degree of east longitude, reckoning from the meridian of Greenwich, including all the islands adjacent in the Pacific Ocean, within the latitudes aforesaid… At the time, the rest of the continent was known as New Holland, the name given to it by the Dutch East India Company following the Dutch discovery of it early in the 17th century and their subsequent mapping of large sections of its coast. -

CAPTAIN MATTHEW FLINDERS Papers, 1801-12 Reel M444
AUSTRALIAN JOINT COPYING PROJECT CAPTAIN MATTHEW FLINDERS Papers, 1801-12 Reel M444 The National Archives Kew, Richmond Surrey TW9 4DU National Library of Australia State Library of New South Wales Filmed: 1960 BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Matthew Flinders (1774-1814) was born in Donington, Lincolnshire. He entered the Royal Navy in 1789 and in 1791 made his first visit to the Pacific, serving as a midshipman on HMS Providence under William Bligh. In 1795 he sailed to New South Wales on HMS Reliance and, with George Bass, explored the coast south of Sydney. In 1798-99 he and Bass explored Bass Strait and made the first circumnavigation of Van Diemen’s Land. He returned to England in 1800. In 1801 Flinders was promoted to the rank of commander and given command of a sloop, HMS Investigator . He received orders from the Admiralty to explore the unknown southern coast of Australia. He reached Cape Leeuwin in December 1801 and sailing eastwards he charted the Great Australia Bight, Spencer’s Gulf, St Vincent’s Gulf, Kangaroo Island, and Encounter Bay, where he met the French explorer Nicolas Baudin. He explored Port Phillip Bay before reaching Sydney in May 1802. In July 1802 Flinders resumed the survey, sailing north to Cape York and the Gulf of Carpentaria. He found that the Investigator was in a very poor state and was forced to abandon the survey, but he was able to return by way of the western coast and thereby complete the circumnavigation of Australia. He reached Sydney in June 1803. In August 1803 Flinders sailed as a passenger on HMS Porpoise, but the ship was wrecked on the Great Barrier Reef. -
