It was home to a sizeable indigenous population, as well as a seasonal visiting place for tribes from other areas. For the past 180 years it has also been the site of various European settlements, including a military /stores depot and convict outstation (1827-1831), a Catholic mission (1843-1846), quarantine station (1850-1864) and benevolent asylum (1866-1946. In typical 19th-20th century fashion, many structures on the island were recycled. The stores depot buildings were re-used by the Catholic mission, and the Dunwich Benevolent Asylum structures that remained on the island when the asylum moved to Sandgate in 1946 have assumed new uses and can be found scattered around Dunwich and elsewhere on the island.

T: 0400 792 243 5 Straddie Camping Education Guide Amity Point – Pulan Pulan Originally known as Pulan by the Nunukul people, Amity Point was home to an Aboriginal population of over 100 at the time of European settlement. In 1825 a pilot station was established to guide ships travelling to the Moreton Bay penal settlement via the South Passage. This was Stradbroke Island's first non-indigenous settlement and closed in the 1840s. For many years Amity Point was the main landing place for people visiting the island. It also was the destination of Hayles Cruises, which operated boats between the island and Brisbane until 1970. Erosion by the Rainbow Channel has claimed many historic sites at Amity Point, including the pilot station, a racecourse and the original site of noted yachtsman and historian Thomas Welsby's cottage. Welsby published seven books on Moreton Bay and its history in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He built a cottage at Amity Point from which he explored the bay islands. His cottage, threatened with erosion, was moved several times and finally dismantled.

    Report on: Erosion at Cloherty’s Peninsular, Moreton Island 1.0 Introduction This report has been prepared by the Coastal Management Unit of Environment Planning for Moreton Bay Marine Park Operations to assess the coastal processes affecting the eastern shoreline of Cloherty’s Peninsular, Moreton Island. Erosion of this beach has exposed a disused landfill site on a reserve (Lot 51 on SL8794) located east of the Kooringal Township. The purpose of this assessment is to investigate channel migration and other coastal processes that may be contributing to erosion of the subject beach. The assessment will assess the likely rate of erosion over the short to medium term and provide some advice on the likely long term prospects for this beach. 2.0 Site Description The study site is the eastern beach of Cloherty’s Peninsular, Moreton Island between Mirapool to the north and Reeders Point to the south (refer Figure 1). This beach has a south-easterly aspect and is exposed to waves from the east to north-east sector. The site is protected from the prevailing south-easterly waves by North Stradbroke Island. The site is influenced by the tidal channels within South Passage, the entrance to Moreton Bay between North Stradbroke and Moreton Islands. South Passage is influenced by two main channels, the Rous and Rainbow Channels. The more dominate Rainbow Channel has a north-south orientation and runs along the western foreshore of North Stradbroke Island and along the eastern foreshore of Moreton Island. The Rous Channel is orientated roughly in an east-west direction and joins the Rainbow Channel approximately halfway between Moreton and North Stradbroke Islands.

    Traditional Law and Indigenous Resistance at Moreton Bay 1842-1855

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Southern Queensland ePrints [2005] ANZLH E-Journal Traditional law and Indigenous Resistance at Moreton Bay 1842-1855 LIBBY CONNORS* On the morning of 5 January 1855 when the British settlers of Moreton Bay publicly executed the Dalla-Djindubari man, Dundalli, they made sure that every member of the Brisbane town police was on duty alongside a detachment of native police under their British officer, Lieutenant Irving. Dundalli had been kept in chains and in solitary for the seven months of his confinement in Brisbane Gaol. Clearly the British, including the judge who condemned him, Sir Roger Therry, were in awe of him. The authorities insisted that these precautions were necessary because they feared escape or rescue by his people, a large number of whom had gathered in the scrub opposite the gaol to witness the hanging. Of the ten public executions in Brisbane between 1839 and 1859, including six of Indigenous men, none had excited this much interest from both the European and Indigenous communities.1 British satisfaction over Dundalli’s death is all the more puzzling when the evidence concerning his involvement in the murders for which he was condemned is examined. Dundalli was accused of the murders of Mary Shannon and her employer the pastoralist Andrew Gregor in October 1846, the sawyer William Waller in September 1847 and wounding with intent the lay missionary John Hausmann in 1845. In the first two cases the only witnesses were Mary Shannon’s five year old daughter and a “half- caste” boy living with Gregor whose age was uncertain but described as about ten or eleven years old.

    PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS QUEENSLAND—HARBOURS, RIVERS AND MARINE [By the President, NORMAN S. PIXLEY, C.M.G., M.B.E., V.R.D., Kt.O.N., F.R.Hist.S.Q.] (Read at the Annual Meeting of the Royal Historical Society of Queensland, 28 September 1972) The growth and development of ports to handle seaborne trade has been vital to Australia, but nowhere has this been so marked as in Queensland, fortunate in possessing more deep-sea ports than any other State. From the founding of the convict settlement in Moreton Bay in 1824 and for many years thereafter, settlement, development and supplies depended entirely on sea com­ munications. With the movement of explorers, prospectors and settlers steadily northward, vessels sailed up the coast carrying supplies for the overland travellers: some prospectors and others took passage by sea rather than face the land journey. Both passengers and cargo had to be put ashore safely at a point on the coast nearest to their destination with sheltered water. In the earlier days of the nineteenth century it was essential that some of the vessels find shelter where there were supplies of water, firewood for the ship's galley, with such food as the virgin countryside offered and where the mariner in distress could make good repairs to his ship. With great thankfulness James Cook found such a haven in the Endeavour River in time of desperate need in 1770. As settlements grew and developed, merchant ships, in addition to maintaining services on the coast, now carried our products to oversea markets, returning with migrants and goods.
