  • Construction of Hume Dam, 1919-1936 Part 3: Getting Started Joe Wooding and Greg Ryan Copious Amounts of Material, Equipment and Infrastructure Were Needed
    Construction of Hume Dam, 1919-1936 Part 3: Getting Started Joe Wooding and Greg Ryan Copious amounts of material, equipment and infrastructure were needed. Two construction villages sprang up. The original Mitta Mitta Junction was the Victorian hamlet we now know simply as Mitta Mitta, on the upper reaches of the Mitta Mitta River. It had first boasted a post office in 1859. A new ‘Mitta Junction’ township was established in about 1920 on the Victorian side of the Hume Dam construction site. The town and The sign reads ‘Mitta Junction Reservoir all its contents was sold at auction in School No 4080’ June 1936 for £7000. A school was built at Mitta Junction in 1922 to cope with the huge increase in activity. Some conjecture persists over the name of the village, due to both football and cricket clubs playing as Ebden Weir. A branch from the Cudgewa Line near Ebden was laid, allowing most of the Victorian requirements to come by rail. One of the ten Thornycroft Lorries being loaded. They ferried equipment from the Albury railway siding to the NSW construction site. The NSW village was known as Hume Weir and started from nothing. A metalled road was installed from Wirlinga (now Riverina Highway). A railway siding and depot at North Street was constructed. A fleet of ten solid rubber tyred Thornycroft motor lorries capable of 10 mph (16 km/h), shuttled vast amounts of stores, equipment and cement to the dam site. Two quarries were established. The one in Victoria provided earth fill and clay for the embankment.

  • Comprehensive Albury Timeline
    ALBURY & DISTRICT TIMELINE Please advise any corrections or omissions to [email protected] This timeline is to reflect more recent interpretations of history. Pre- Pre-European settlement: Indigenous people occupied this part of the Murray Valley for 1824 tens of thousands of years. By the 1820s those in the Albury district spoke a Wiradjuri language, though may have recently displaced a group known as the Jeihi. Different language groups occupied areas south of the Murray. Most people would have spoken more than one language. The Wiradjuri, the largest nation in NSW, occupied a large west of the Great Dividing Range. In 1824, Wiradjuri warriors, led by Windradyne, fought a war against the British in the Bathers district, ending in an extermination campaign that massacred indigenous men, women and children. Weeks later, and against this background, Hume and Hovell led an expedition through Wiradjuri country from Yass to Albury, but encountered no hostility from the Wiradjuri. Historians believe that in the 1840s indigenous Australian groups in the Albury-Wodonga region were still numerous. In later decades, many died as a consequence of settler violence, being pushed off their lands and contracting diseases brought by the Europeans. Indigenous Australians occupation of the district began as early as 40,000 years ago – it was Wiradjuri Ngurambanggu country, an area known as Bungambrawatha; the Murray River was known as Milawa Billa; the meeting ground east of Albury known as Mungabareena; and Dight’s Hill to the west of Albury known as Jingera. A large rock, has been placed at Mungabareena inscribed, ‘Gawaimbanna-Gu Wiradjuri Nguranban’ – ‘Welcome to Wiradjuri Country.’ Official unveiling ceremony November 19, 1994 by Mayor Jim Paterson and Pastor Cec Grant Wiradjuri elder.
