  • Burwell-Frederick-William
    PHOTO REQUIRED Frederick W. Burwell (courtesy xx xx) Frederick William Burwell (1846-1915) was born in Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland to Frederick Charles Burwell and Margaret Allan Ross. Unfortunately Frederick senior died in the same year as the birth of his son. F.W. Burwell served his articles with James Matthews (1820-1898) in Scotland before migrating to the southern Dominions, arriving at Melbourne in 1869, aged 23, and subsequently moving to New Zealand. He first established a practice in Queenstown, then moving to Invercargill in 1874, where his practice thrived. The New Zealand Historic Places Trust notes that “Burwell is noted for designing many buildings in Invercargill, which transformed the centre of the town in the 1870s. Once established in Invercargill he began designing elegant two and three-storey buildings, in the Renaissance style. In Dee Street almost all the buildings were designed by him, including the hospital. 'The Crescent' was another notable streetscape created by Burwell.” Frederick Burwell was elected a Fellow of RIBA in 1880, proposed by (later Sir) Robert W. Edis, John Norton, and his uncle David Ross. Ross had also studied under James Matthews, the two architects had both migrated to New Zealand, and Ross had been made FRIBA in 1879 - with Edis and Norton as proposers. Burwell moved to Hawthorn, Victoria and was listed in practice in Collins Street, Melbourne from c.1888 until 1894. A cursory examination of tender notices suggests Burwell undertook a significant number of multiple residential projects in and around Melbourne in this period. Fred married the much younger Annie Sunderland Bateman (1868-1942) at Hobart, Tasmania on 30 April 1891.

  • Cogill Brothers
    COGILL BROTHERS Charles and Harry Cogill American comics, dancers, singers, entrepreneurs, writers, producers. The Cogill brothers first toured Australia with Emerson's Minstrels in 1885 and remained in the country for some 15 years. During that period they found engagements with Williamson, Garner and Musgrove and Harry Rickards (including operating joint companies), but were largely known for running their own minstrel and burlesque companies. These companies invariably included some of the country's leading performers, notably W. Horace Bent, J. C. Bain, the Bovis brothers, Delohery Craydon and Holland, Johnny Matlock, Slade Murray, the Rockley brothers and Will Whitburn. In 1890 the Cogills were forced into bankruptcy, but within 18 months were able to return to the industry as entrepreneurs. By the mid- 1890s the brothers appear to have taken different paths, with Charles Cogill being associated with Harry Rickards (1896 - ca.1900) and Frank M. Clark (1898). Harry Cogill toured his own minstrel companies (Harry Cogill's Federal Minstrels, Harry Cogill's New Musical Comedy Co, and the Bright Lights Co) around Australasia from 1897 to 1901. Charles died in San Francisco in 1903. His brother died in New York less than a month later. The Cogill brothers, Charles William and Harry Payon, came to Australia in the 1880s during a period of activity and opportunity not seen in the county since the heady gold-rush era of the late 1850s/early 1960s and subsequently stayed. As entrepreneurs they engaged a great number of local performers, and played a significant role in disseminating their knowledge beyond their own troupes, as many of these performers went on to carve out their own successful careers and in turn engaged and developed the next generation of performers.

  • Arrived at Fremantle on the SS Yeoman from England with His Brother Arnold and His Father, Architect Howard Evans Senior (1845-1919)
    Howard Hasler Evans (Geraldton: 150 Years 150 Lives , p.60; Twentieth Century Impressions of WA, 1901, p.594) Born at Barrow-in-Furness on 8 June 1872, Howard Hasler Evans (1872-1939) arrived at Fremantle on the SS Yeoman from England with his brother Arnold and his father, architect Howard Evans senior (1845-1919). Tragically for the family, wife and mother Jane Evans had died in England and, with charge of two daughters and two sons, Howard senior decided a change was required. On the day of the Evans’ arrival, 21 June 1887, the predominantly British colonists at Western Australia raised a toast to their Regent, celebrating Queen Victoria’s golden jubilee - fifty years on the throne. The Evans were present the next day at Fremantle as celebrations were held for the opening of the landmark Town Hall, designed by renowned Melbourne architect Charles D'Ebro. Evans senior found work in the north-west at Roebourne, supervising the construction of the Union Bank in 1887-88, leaving his two sons at school in Perth. At Roebourne, Evans met Anglican minister Canon Groser and assisted him with Sunday School and Sunday services. Groser later moved to Beverley, and made extensive use of Evans’ architectural and lay reader services in that district. In 1889, Evans senior was employed as clerk of works by contractor John Hurst on the Union Bank at Fremantle, designed by another important Melbourne architect, George Inskip. In the absence of a local professional body at this time, with Inskip’s guidance Evans was granted Royal Victorian Institute of Architects membership whilst in practice at Fremantle.

  • Fremantle Heritage Festival 2017
    FREMANTLE HERITAGE FESTIVAL 2017 26 MAY to 5 JUNE WELCOME to the 2017 FREMANTLE HERITAGE FESTIVA L This year’s Fremantle Heritage Festival celebrates those who have created history and along the way made a lasting contribution to what Fremantle is today. Some of these contributions were planned, some accidental, but all are worth reflecting on. One of the biggest contributions to Fremantle’s modern history was the America’s Cup Defence in 1987. It’s hard to believe it’s been 30 years since Fremantle took its place on the world stage to host the most prestigious sailing race of them all. Our port city underwent major redevelopment in the lead-up to the Cup in anticipation of the world’s media attention and influx of spectators. Paying homage to the legendary race as part of this year’s festival, the National Hotel is teaming up with the WA Maritime Museum to present the America's Cup Defence 30th Anniversary Dinner – a night of tall tales, dinner and dancing. This year’s festival keynote speaker, Nelson Woss, is a contemporary filmmaker who has documented Australian heritage as the producer of films such as Red Dog and Ned Kelly. I’m looking forward to hearing him share his insights before a screening of Red Dog at the University of Notre Dame Australia. 2 WELCOME to the 2017 FREMANTLE HERITAGE FESTIVA L Fremantle’s legendary West End is again a focal point for the festival. Since the last Fremantle Heritage CONTENTS Festival, the entire West End has been included in the OPENING 4 State Register of Heritage Places.

City of Fremantle 7. Statement of Significance of Place (Assessment in Detail) DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE The Fremantle Town Hall is an impressive two storey stuccoed building built in 1887 to accommodate the administrative and civic functions of the Fremantle Municipal Council. The Fremantle Municipal Council, formed in 1871 from the Fremantle Town Trust, initially met in a variety of different locations in Fremantle. Having become a municipality, the Council set as a prime objective the procurement of a permanent Town Hall. In 1876, a site on the corner of South Terrace and Essex Street was selected and set aside for Town hall purposes. Governor Robinson gave consent for the setting, together with his approval for the use of convict labour in its construction. He also authorised for plans and specifications to be provided free of charge by the Government, and stone for the building to be provided from the Government quarry. In addition he asked the Legislature to set aside £2,000 as a grant towards the cost of construction.1 Subsequently, Mr Thomas, the Government Engineer, prepared plans in June 1876 for a two storey building with entrances off both South Terrace and Essex Street.
