  • Private Papers of J.B
    ___________________________________________________________________ CLELAND, J.B. (John Burton) PRG 5 Series List John Burton Cleland (1878-1971), son of William Lennox Cleland, Resident Medical Officer at the Parkside Lunatic Asylum, was Government Microbiologist in Sydney in 1909-1920, where he made a significant contribution to experimental epidemiology, and Marks Professor of Pathology at the University of Adelaide 1920-1948, during which time he methodically collected the results of more than 7,000 autopsies conducted by him at the Royal Adelaide and Repatriation Hospitals, and was recognised for his expertise in macroscopic and microscopic pathology. From his youth, J.B. Cleland showed great interest in natural history, particularly fungi, and in later years this interest continued and extended to the fields of ornithology, anthropology, and wildlife conservation. He was also particularly interested in Cleland family genealogy, and amassed considerable material on Cleland ancestors for the history ‘The Ancient Family of Cleland’, published in 1905. J.B. Cleland’s contribution to medicine and natural history was widely recognised, and he received many honours during his life time, including a knighthood in 1964, and the naming after him of Cleland Wildlife Reserve (later Cleland National Park) in 1967. He was a member of the Royal Society of South Australia for 75 years and of the National Park Commission from 1927-1969, and was active on the (South Australian) Aboriginal Affairs Board and the Board of Anthropological Research at the University of Adelaide for many years. Each of these interests is reflected in the J.B. Cleland papers (1626-1971), which contain a large volume of correspondence (including letters from some of the most eminent pathologists, biologists and anthropologists of the time), notes and manuscript articles on medical, natural history and anthropological subjects (series 15-20), and genealogy (series 26-34), covering almost the whole span of J.B.

The University of Adelaide is committed to providing an inspiring university experience and producing talented and skilled graduates. I hope that your skills and the friendships that you have made will endure throughout your life. You should be proud today of your achievement in completing your studies, which is the first step on what I trust will be a satisfying and exciting career. I would also take this opportunity, on behalf of the University, to thank those who have supported you and, in many cases, have made it possible for you to be here today. You will always remember the University of Adelaide, and I hope you will consider it a significant part of your life, not just the past few years while studying, and not just today but forever. I encourage you to join our network of alumni and enjoy the benefits of a long association with your University.
