Nathaniel Lucas NATHANIEL LUCAS : OLIVIA GASCOIGNE Nathaniel Lucas was sentenced at the Old Bailey on 7 July 1784 to transportation for seven years for theft of a few items of clothing. Said to be a carpenter and joiner, he spent time in the Ceres and Censor hulks before being sent to Scarborough on 27 February 1787. On 14 February 1788 after the Fleet’s arrival, Lucas was sent to Norfolk Island with the group to settle the island, and making himself a valuable assert as a carpenter in the new community. Amongst the group sent to Norfolk Island was Olivia Gascoigne who had been indicted when sentenced to death at Worcester on 5 March 1785 for theft from a dwelling house of coins totalling £3.17.6d. She was reprieved to seven years transportation on 28 December and held in Worcester gaol until ordered to Southwark gaol. From Southwark she went with the group of women who embarked on Lady Penrhyn on 31 January 1787. By the time of their arrival on Norfolk Island, Olivia and Nathaniel lived together. She bore him children annually to a total of 13, eleven of whom survived infancy. On 31 December 1792 Nathaniel was appointed superintendent of convict carpenters, blacksmiths and sawyers, and settled on 15 acres and was selling grain to stories. The family returned to Port Jackson in 1805 and in February 1806 Nathaniel had erected an octagonal smock mill on the esplanade at Fort Phillip, two pairs of millstones to come from Norfolk Island. After a period as a private builder, Nathaniel became superintendent of carpenters in NSW. Many of his buildings are well known today. On 5 May 1818 his body was found in the river mud at Liverpool, his death believed to be suicide from mental derangement, due to constant drinking. Following Nathaniel’s death, Olivia went to VDL in 1818 with six of her surviving children and settled on 100 acres at Port Dalrymple. She was buried there on 12 June 1830, her age given as 69.

William arrived on Hillsborough on 26 July 1799 at the age of 23 as a lifer, having had his death sentence for stealing £20 from his employer commuted to transportation. On Christmas Day 1806, William married Elizabeth Hollingsworth after she had been assigned to him from the Female Factory at Parramatta. She had ar­ rived on 24 June 1804 on Experiment 1 to serve seven years for stealing just one pound from her employer. They were to have eight children. William obtained a ticket of leave on 19 January, 1811, by which time he had carved out a living for his family at Eastern Creek raising wheat and cattle and supplying grain and meat to the Government Store. This brings us to the mound pictured at right. It is a beehive well, built by Lumpy Dean in 1814, one of many scattered around the re- gion, but without doubt the best preserved, although it may have been Lumpy's Beehive Well with peephole, repaired in 1911.

The role of this work is to provide an historical context for the study area. This I analysis, derived from both primary and secondary sources, permits an understanding of why the various natural and cultural features have been established and how they have evolved from first settlement to the present day. I The work informs and supports the several heritage and landscape assessments that have been prepared for this Plan of Management. 1 Observatory Hill is one of the best known historic sites in Sydney and has been an important part of the development of the city almost from the first day of settlement in 1788. Throughout that long period it has changed character several times, it has 1 served a variety of related and disparate functions and residents' and visitors' perceptions of the site have reacted according to these variety of uses. The I several names given to the hill have reflected its various incarnations; Windmill Hill, Citadel Hill, Flagstaff Hill and Observatory Hill. 1 For this reason a simple chronological history of the land encompassed in the study area would not achieve a useful understanding of the many ways in which Observatory Hill has served the city and has been viewed or altered by its 1 residents and managers.

  • Mary Jackson - Staffordshire
    Bond of Friendship Mary Jackson - Staffordshire Mary Jackson Date of Trial: 1 August 1816 Where Tried: Stafford Assizes Crime: Forgery Sentence: 14 years Est YOB: 1780 Stated Age on Arrival: 37 Native Place: Manchester Occupation: Housekeeper Alias/AKA: Marital Status (UK): Children on Board: Surgeon’s Remarks: Industrious Assigned NSW or VDL NSW Although she was a married woman, when Mary Jackson was brought before the Stafford Assizes on 1 August 1816 she had not seen her husband Peter for quite some time but, as we shall see, they were to be reunited a few years later. Mary was charged with having forged notes in her possession and sentenced to 14 years transportation.1 But it was not just one or two notes that caused Mary to be sent to the other end of the world. She was actually found with fifty-six forged one-pound notes - a very tidy sum - acquisition of which would have involved a considerable capital outlay by a person of some means. But, as we are not aware of Mary’s financial circumstances at the time, it is not known whether she intended passing on the notes for her own purposes, or was acting as an agent, possibly on a commission basis, for someone else.2 Nearly a year after her trial Mary Jackson was taken aboard the convict transport Friendship, one of only two women from Stafford, the other being Margaret Yates, who was to serve her sentence in Van Diemen’s Land.3 The indent tells us very little more about Mary – confirming the trial details and the sentence meted out, but also stating that Mary was aged 37 and a housekeeper by occupation.4 She had obviously kept herself ‘in order’ on the voyage, Surgeon Cosgreave summing up her conduct as ‘industrious’.

  • Tony Robinson Explores Australia Is a Documentary Series
    A STUDY GUIDE BY KATY MARRINER & FIONA EDWARDS http://www.metromagazine.com.au ISBN-13-978-1-74295-058-7 http://www.theeducationshop.com.au A STUDY GUIDE OVERVIEW Tony Robinson, who has previously presented Time Team and Ned Kelly Uncovered, embarks on a case study of Australia’s past, from the earliest explorers to white settlement, Indigenous Australians, multiculturalism and Australia’s role in two world wars. Filmed on location around the country in November and December 2010, in this exciting and fast-paced six-part series Robinson is joined on his mammoth journey by some of Australia’s foremost historians and writers, including Tim Flannery, Thomas Keneally and Eric Wilmott. From the search to identify the ‘great southern land’, through colonial trials and tribulations and right up to the establishment of the dynamic modern Australia, Tony Robinson covers a huge amount of ground as he reveals the key events and major influences that define Australia – and Australians – today.

    KINGSTON AND ARTHUR’S VALE HISTORIC AREA Source: J. Shevlin 2007 CONSERVATION Management Plan A Management Plan prepared to meet Commonwealth and Norfolk Island Government requirements Final December 2008 Kingston and Arthur’s Vale Historic Area Conservation Management Plan December 2008 2 Kingston and Arthur’s Vale Historic Area Conservation Management Plan December 2008 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Kingston and Arthur’s Vale Historic Area (KAVHA) on Norfolk Island is a place with very special values. It is an historic site on a remote Pacific island with a rural setting, buildings and archaeological remains dating from Polynesian times to today. It is a living heritage site with the continuing use of the buildings, open spaces and a natural beauty which also contributes to its heritage value. The current Norfolk Island community is intimately associated with its history. This Conservation Management Plan (CMP) considers the natural setting, all phases of development, all the structures and the use of the place as well as its cultural landscape and archaeology. The special character of KAVHA includes the multiple layers of convict settlement as well as its Polynesian, Pitcairn, trading, whaling, administrative and physical characteristics. The physical fabric of the place is analysed for each settlement phase and groupings of items. Associated historical materials and intangible aspects are also analysed as part of the fabric of the place. The analysis has incorporated ideas like ‘cultural landscapes’, ‘cultural traditions’ and ‘cultural identity’ in line with international developments in the field of cultural heritage. Traditional practices and compatible uses are integrated into this CMP because they represent the cultural traditions which give the place its identity.

  • 14.0 the Bakehouse and Mill
    85 Chapter 14.0: Bakehouse and Mill 14.0 The Bakehouse and Mill 14.1 Research Questions The original research question associated with the windmill, as posed in 1998, was: Remains relating to the mill and bakery may provide significant detail relating to many historical questions surrounding early attempts at food production in the colony. Such remains could also contribute to research into the foodways, diet and technological strategies of the first colonists.1 The focus of the research questions has been reorganised to more easily address the archaeological evidence. The main areas to be examined are: • How the bakehouse and mill operated as a commercial complex in colonial New South Wales? How did the political and social contexts affect the way in which this important commercial complex operated? This was the first privately owned and built mill in Sydney. This will be explored by examining in detail the political and social contexts in which the mill operated. The role of John Palmer and his influence as Commissary is important in understanding why the mill and bakehouse came to be built and why their presence in the Domain was tolerated until 1815. • How does the analysis of the material culture of the bakehouse remains contribute to research into the foodways, diet and technological strategies of the first colonists? In this section the focus will be on the corpus of early lead-glazed ceramic found in the bakehouse and how they fit into the existing lead-glazed ceramic typology established by Casey (1999). The range of material culture associated with the bakehouse will be briefly discussed.
