Bibliography 390 In about 1986 , the Australian Customs Service ( ACS) canvassed the States for Bicentennial project ideas . Two suggestions were submitted from WA relating to a written history and the production of a Colonial Customs uniform, respectively . The latter suggestion was adopted early and proved an instant success for the creator Richard Coleman. Quite unexpectedly in February 1988, a minute was circulated in all States concerning a national historical record to be prepared as an ACS contribution to the Bicentenary. Part of this record was the production of State histories and fortuitously for me this development coincided with tertiary historical studies I am currently undertaking. Customs and Excise has played a prominent part in Australian history and their significance has sadly been neglected by Australian historians. It soon became apparent that very little had been written about WA Customs history apart from short unpublished summaries prepared by former Customs officers C.S. Carne ( 1935 ), B. Corr ( 1959 ) and R. Warren ( 1985). Furthermore , I felt that a narrative form would not do justice to the many significant events that have occurred over the period 1828-1988. As a consequence , this work endeavours to fill in some of the gaps by drawing together a quantity of important and interesting factual material from widely scattered sources. The information is not designed to compete with encyclopaedic works, but rather to present a concise factual statement which can be used as a guide to further exploration of a subject. From the outset let me say this is not a definitive history as the many gaps attest to lack of material . Sadly, over the years , many records were inadvertently destroyed by Customs staff without a sense of history. This work is divided into nine parts: Contents Preface Introduction Origins of Customs and Excise -6- WA Milestones ( 1828-1988) Officers and Anecdotes Illustrations Appendixes Maps Bibliography Entries under WA Milestones are presented under six subject headings depending on sufficiency of information: Legislation New Developments/procedures Perth/Fremantle Activities Outport Activities Personnel References The appendixes have been prepared to reflect the political , legal, economic , social and administrative trends of the subject period. It would have been an impossible task to compile this history without the advice and assistance of many people and agencies . Firstly, the Management of the ACS in WA and in particular John Stitt , gave the project administrative support. The members of the WA Bicentennial Project Team John Oakford , Richard Coleman , Bob Hodge , Jim Wilkinson and John Waight all helped in various ways. Outside agencies such as the Australian Federal Police, Attorney Generals, Australian Archives, Fremantle and Battye Libraries provided valuable information. Contributors to this work were: Keyboard operators Del Plummer, Pat Field , Hilda Harris and mainly Kim French who undertook the bulk of the typing with professional skill and patience. -7- Bob Hodge for photography. Bob Douglas who prepared the 1893 map showing locations of Customs staff. Max Gerryn who drew the maps showing locations of Breweries, Vigneron Stills and Tobacco Factories in Western Australia and Customs Control Points 1834-1988. Greg Bolitho for designing the title page and Geoff Wolski for Computer support. Les Morrison who prepared pre federation revenue statistics , Appendixes III, IV & V. B. McCallum who prepared the 1901-1961 Revenue Statistics , Appendix VIII. Alan Clarke who prepared the Diesel Fuel Rebate figures, Appendix XXIII. Pam McGregor who prepared statistics on Drug Seizures, Appendixes XXVI to XXX. Customs Officers Bob Stone , Bill Gardner , John Chescoe, Haddon Rudkin who supplied anecdotes. Retired officers Ivan Olsen, Mel Jarvis, Les Alp, Vern Westley and Bill Gardner who shared their reminiscences and provided valuable information. Customs agent Ian Orr for his recollections about the early Perth Wharves. A special thanks to my wife Suzanne for her understanding during my moments of preoccupation. In attempting a broad canvas it is inevitable that mistakes will occur. Readers are invited to inform the writer of entries which they can show to be misleading or inaccurate and to suggest any new entries which they feel should be included in any future editions. Finally, if the window to the past offers a better understanding of the present then this work would have achieved its purpose. -8- S N T R O D U C T Z O N On 10 June 1985, Parliament established the Australian Customs Service ( ACS) as an independent agency of the Australian Public Service.

The search for Descendants Three new Life Members Page 332 Page 336 Page 318 FEATURE: WESTERN AUSTRALIAN HISTORY The Fate of Caroline Broun The wife of Peter Nicholas Broun, first Colonial Secretary of the Swan River Colony Robert Atkins, Member 10908 and Don Blue, Member 425. Don and Robert presented the journal editors with a very unusual dilemma prior to the publication of the last issue. They both submitted virtually the same story quite independently. Third cousins, they had not met previously! As it turns out, Don had obtained a photocopy of Caroline Broun’s diary from Robert’s father in the early 1970s. The diary is now in Robert’s possession having inherited his father’s papers and documents. This diary contains Caroline Broun’s writings, copies of letters, records of family events and newspaper cuttings, which appears to have commenced after she returned to England in 1849. Caroline Broun (1804 – 1881) is Don’s 3 times great grandmother and Robert’s 2 times great grandmother. We start with her account of the sinking of the Hindoo. It tells something of her character. The Shipwreck On 9 September 1848 “Mrs. P. Broun” was aboard the Hindoo bound for London from Fremantle. Caroline Broun was the only woman on board and she wrote the following (probably to her 1 son James), reported in the Inquirer 18 July 1849 : “Jan.
