Held at Maddingley Park last Saturday afternoon through to Sunday morning, teams walked, ran and even stilt walked laps of the oval, raising funds for cancer research. Committee chairperson Gillian Loughman thanked all involved in the event. “A huge thank you to everyone who came along to this year’s event. “It was another successful year that would not have been possible without the support from each and every one of you.” Market stalls, free activities, live entertainment, raffles, prizes, massages (for the weary) all contributed in making the event a community get together and creating a carnival like atmosphere. DjHS had a team in the relay called the Clown Doctors (judged Best Tent), and Gaby’s Army received an award for Best Baton.

( Palaeontologist, National 1J1usem·n, JJ:[elboiirne) and Professor TV. N. Benson, B.A., D.Sc. (University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealcind.) The Australian graptolite fauna is probably the most complete in the world, certainly in regard to its Ordovician components, a fact clearly appreciated by McCoy. He had ready for the press descriptions and figures of most of the species afterwards described in J amcs Hall's J\fonograph published iu 1865, which may be regarded as the basis of systematic graptolite research, when he received from Hall a proof of his fignres. McCoy immediately conceded him priority and adopted his specific names. Had Hall delayed sending his proof, McCoy wonld certainly have pnblisl1ed his figures and descriptions and his name would have been just as pl'ominent in the literature of graptoliies as Hall's. Com­ menting on "Graptolitcs (Didymograpsus) frutieosus (Hall sp.)," l\IcCoy snys, "this is the first Victorian gmptolitc I ever smv, and, as it was then a new species, I had named it in my .MSS. after J\fr.

  • Parish and Township Plan Numbers
    Parish and Township plan numbers This is a complete list of Victorian parishes and townships, together with plan numbers assigned by the Victorian Department of Crown Lands and Survey at some point between 1950 and 1970. The list has been reproduced from the Vicmap Reference Tables on the Department of Sustainability and Environment's land information website. Browse the list or use a keyword search to identify the plan number/s for a location. The plans are listed alphabetically. Townships and parishes are inter-sorted on the list. Some entries refer to locations within parishes or townships; these entries may be duplicated. The plan number can be used to locate copies of plans that PROV holds in the series VPRS 16171 Regional Land Office Plans Digitised Reference Set. For example, using the Search within a Series page on the PROV online catalogue with series number '16171' and the text '5030' will return the specific plans relating to the township of Ballarat. In this case, searching for 'Ballaarat' by name will return al the plans in the Ballarat land district, covering much of central and western Victoria. PROV does not hold copies of plans for the locations highlighted in pale yellow below. In most cases this is because parish-level plans were not created for areas such as national parks, where there were few land transactions to record. Plans showing these locations can be downloaded from the landata website under the section 'Central Plan Office Records'. 5001 Township of Aberfeldy 2016 Parish of Angora 2001 Parish of Acheron 2017
