It appears that in March, 1858, the additional quantity of purchased land of which the occupiers had entered into possession during the preceding twelve months, amounted to 580,785 acres. .As the population had increased during that period 58,871 persons, or from 410,766 to 469,637, it follows that for every individual added to the gross population very neurly ten acres were occupied for agricultural purposes, either of grazing or tillage.

  • John and Catherine Macdonald Family History
    John and Catherine MacDonald Family History. John and Catherine (Macdonald) Macdonald John Macdonald b. 1806 Isle of Skye, Parish of Kilmuir County of Inverness Married 6th February 1827 at Skye, Parish of Snizort, County of Inverness From the Old Parish Registers, Parish of Snizort, County Inverness Shire. To Catherine Macdonald b. 1810 Isle of Skye, Inverness. (daughter of Hector & wife ?(Shaw) Macdonald, she died 6th March 1891 in Warrnambool Victoria Cert Ref No. 4341. They were said to be first cousins who eloped to marry. John & Catherine were believed to have lived around Snizort/Kilmuir, small neighbouring parishes on the Isle of Skye and the story of ‘crossing the border’ to marry because of family opposition came from Henrietta (Macdonald) Davies through to daughter Gertrude Mary (Davies) Benn. It would be hard to know which border they were referring to. Perhaps it was to a different Parish other than where they lived! The Isle of Skye comes under the jurisdiction of the County of Inverness. Henrietta had said the poem ‘Lord Ullins Daughter’ was about very similar circumstances. Lord Ullin's Daughter A chieftain, to the Highlands bound, Cries, ``Boatman, do not tarry! And I'll give thee a silver pound To row us o'er the ferry!''-- ``Now, who be ye, would cross Lochgyle, This dark and stormy weather?'' ``O, I'm the chief of Ulva's Isle, And this, Lord Ullin's daughter.-- ``And fast before her father's men Three days we've fled together, For should he find us in the glen, My blood would stain the heather.

    Submission re Inquiry into Rural Drainage in Victoria Executive Officer, Environment and Natural Resources Committee Parliament House Spring Street East Melbourne Vic 3002 [email protected] Jodie A. Honan Port Fairy 3284 21 December 2012 Dear Sir/Madam Re: Inquiry into Rural Drainage in Victoria Thank you for the opportunity to make a submission about rural drainage in Victoria. I have worked and researched in areas affected by rural drainage for several years; particularly the south-west of Western Victoria. My submission includes my personal observations, along with references to other documents you may find helpful. I am also sending by post a copy of the publication ‘Yambuk Lake, Yambuk People’ (Honan & Condon 2008) which provides much useful background information. If you would like to discuss anything further, please contact me Yours faithfully Jodie A. Honan BAppSci, MSc, GradDipEd Jodie A.

The historical basis for the establishment and operation of former drainage schemes including management arrangements South West Victoria once had a wealth of wetlands and waterways; in some areas early maps indicate up to one third of the land area was under water during winter. Most of these wetlands have been lost to rural drainage (Figures 1 & 2). The Glenelg Hopkins CMA publication: ‘Yambuk Lake, Yambuk People’ by J. Honan and P. Condon includes historical background about the drainage of the Yambuk and Eumeralla areas. This book was based on oral histories and archival research.
