    THE HERALDRY OF THE MACLEAYS AND THEIR KIN: THE ARMS OF WILLIAM MACLEAY, HIS SONS, AND THEIR MALE DESCENDANTS Stephen Michael Szabo Heraldic Consultant, Sydney INTRODUCTION In an earlier article1 I gave a brief account of the life of Alexander Macleay following his arrival in Sydney in 1826 and up to his death twenty-two years later. I noted that there had been little or no scholarly examination of the use of coats of arms and similar heraldic identifiers by Alexander Macleay and his kin by either blood or marriage, and ventured that such an examination, which I hoped to carry out, might reveal something about identity, aspiration and kinship in the Scottish diaspora in colonial New South Wales. The present article narrows its focus to look at the ancestry of Alexander Macleay, how his father acquired legitimately granted arms, and what use of these arms was made by various male family members to declare their social status. ANCESTRY The Australian Dictionary of Biography (ADB) tells us that Alexander Macleay was: the son of William Macleay, provost of Wick and deputy-lieutenant of Caithness. He was descended from an ancient family which came from Ulster; at the Reformation the family had substantial landholdings in Scotland, but by loyalty to the Stuarts suffered severe losses after the battle of Culloden.2 The ADB entry for Alexander’s son George claims that “the McLeays [were] an old Caithness landed family.”3 The latter is not entirely true, for it seems that the Macleays were newly settled in the late eighteenth century in Caithness, but they had indeed 1 Stephen Michael Szabo, ‘The Heraldry of The Macleays and Their Kin: Scottish Heraldry and Its Australian Context’, Journal of the Sydney Society for Scottish History, Vol.

  • The Story of Barncleuth (Later Kinneil)
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE SOCIETY OF ARCHITECTURAL HISTORIANS AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND VOL. 33 Edited by AnnMarie Brennan and Philip Goad Published in Melbourne, Australia, by SAHANZ, 2016 ISBN: 978-0-7340-5265-0 The bibliographic citation for this paper is: Judith O’Callaghan “Trophy House: The Story of Barncleuth (later Kinneil).” In Proceedings of the Society of Architectural Historians, Australia and New Zealand: 33, Gold, edited by AnnMarie Brennan and Philip Goad, 538-549.

Interested parties may contact the editors. Judith O’Callaghan UNSW Australia TROPHY HOUSE: THE STORY OF BARNCLEUTH (LATER KINNEIL) Kinneil was a rare domestic commission undertaken by the prominent, and often controversial architect, J. J. Clark. Though given little prominence in recent assessments of Clark’s oeuvre, plans and drawings of “Kinneil House,” Elizabeth Bay Road, Sydney, were published as a slim volume in 1891. The arcaded Italianate villa represented was in fact a substantial remodelling of an earlier house on the site, Barncleuth. Built by James Hume for wine merchant John Brown, it had been one of the first of the “city mansions” to be erected on the recently subdivided Macleay Estate in 1852. Brown was a colonial success story and Barncleuth was to be both his crowning glory and parting gesture. Within only two years of the house’s completion he was on his way back to Britain to spend the fortune he had amassed in Sydney. Over the following decades, Barncleuth continued to represent the golden prize for the socially mobile.

  • Fact Sheet — Parklands
    Fact Sheet — Parklands The parklands at Sydney Olympic Park provide 430 hectares of open space, recreation areas, wetlands and waterways for the people of Sydney located in the heart of the growing metropolitan Sydney. • One of Australia’s largest urban parklands, Sydney Olympic Park is a diverse and special place where protected remnant woodlands, rare saltmarshes, waterbird refuge and mangroves stand alongside places of heritage significance to create a unique parkland setting. • A lasting legacy of the Sydney 2000 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the parklands have been designed and built on land formerly used by government industries including the State Abattoirs, State Brickworks and Commonwealth Department of Defence, and are the result of remediating industrial land — an internationally recognised leading environmental remediation and urban renewal project. • Today, the parklands are playing an increasingly important role as both a local park and as a significant regional park destination as Sydney grows. The parklands are an association of many different parks and places brought together as a single entity for management purposes. • The suburb of Sydney Olympic Park covers an area of 640 hectares, of which 430 hectares are parklands. • There are now over 2.7 million visits to the parklands annually, representing 27.5 percent of Sydney Olympic Park total visitation. • The parklands include the leisure and play areas of Bicentennial Park, Wentworth Common and Blaxland Riverside Park; the sporting grounds at Wilson Park and Archery Park, and Monster and Mountain X facilities; the state heritage listed Newington Armory; the more natural areas of Newington Nature Reserve and Badu Mangroves; the Brickpit and 100 hectares of wetlands and waterways.

  • Grenville Kate 320 Compress.Mp3
    Grenville Kate 320 compress.mp3 [00:00:00] Interviewer Welcome to the Inner West Library Speaker series. Before we begin today, I would like to acknowledge the Gadigal and Wangal people of the Eora nation on which this podcast is produced and pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging from across all lands this podcast reaches. Kate Grenville is one of Australia's most celebrated writers. Her international bestseller, The Secret River, was awarded local and overseas prizes, has been adapted for the stage and as an acclaimed television miniseries and is now a much-loved classic. Grenville's other novels include Sarah Thornhill, The Lieutenant, Dark Places and the Orange Prize Winner The Idea of Perfection. Her most recent books are two works on non-fiction, One Life: My Mother's Story and The Case Against Fragrance. She has also written three books about the writing process. In 2017, Grenville was awarded the Australia Council Award for Lifetime Achievement in Literature. She currently lives in Melbourne. What if Elizabeth Macarthur, wife of the notorious John Macarthur, wool Baron in the earliest days of Sydney had written a shockingly frank secret memoir? And what if novelist Kate Grenville had miraculously found and published it? That's the starting point for A Room Made of Leaves, a playful dance of possibilities between the real and the invented. Marriage to a ruthless bully, the impulses of her heart, the search for power in a society that gave women none. This Elizabeth Macarthur manages her complicated life with spirit and passion, cunning and sly wit.

  • 'Quilled on the Cann': Alexander Hart, Scottish Cabinet Maker, Radical
    ‘QUILLED ON THE CANN’ ALEXANDER HART, SCOTTISH CABINET MAKER, RADICAL AND CONVICT John Hawkins A British Government at war with Revolutionary and Republican France was fully aware of the dangers of civil unrest amongst the working classes in Scotland for Thomas Paine’s Republican tract The Rights of Man was widely read by a particularly literate artisan class. The convict settlement at Botany Bay had already been the recipient of three ‘Scottish martyrs’, the Reverend Thomas Palmer, William Skirving and Thomas Muir, tried in 1793 for seeking an independent Scottish republic or democracy, thereby forcing the Scottish Radical movement underground. The onset of the Industrial Revolution, and the conclusion of the Napoleonic wars placed the Scottish weavers, the so called ‘aristocrats’ of labour, in a difficult position for as demand for cloth slumped their wages plummeted. As a result, the year 1819 saw a series of Radical protest meetings in west and central Scotland, where many thousands obeyed the order for a general strike, the first incidence of mass industrial action in Britain. The British Government employed spies to infiltrate these organisations, and British troops were aware of a Radical armed uprising under Andrew Hardie, a Glasgow weaver, who led a group of twenty five Radicals armed with pikes in the direction of the Carron ironworks, in the hope of gaining converts and more powerful weapons. They were joined at Condorrat by another group under John Baird, also a weaver, only to be intercepted at Bonnemuir, where after a fight twenty one Radicals were arrested and imprisoned in Stirling Castle.
