Hello members and friends. I am pleased and privileged to have been elected president of AGSHV Inc. for 2016. This is an exciting challenge to be chosen for this role. Hopefully I have followed on from where Brian has left off as he has left big shoes to fill. Brian and Leonie decided to relinquish their long held posts as President and Treasurer (respectively) after many years of unquestionable service to our society, which might I say, was carried out with great efficiency and grace. They have set a high standard. Thank you Brian and Leonie. We also welcomed a new Vice President, Richard Bale and new Treasurer John Hyslop. Although change has come to the executive committee the drive for excellence has not been diminished. Brian is still very involved with organising and running activities as if nothing has changed. The “What Rock Is That” teaching day Brian and Ron conducted (which ended up running over 2 days) at Brian’s home was an outstanding success. Everyone had samples of rocks, with Brian and Ron explaining the processes involved in how these rocks would have formed, and how to identify each sample, along with copious written notes and diagrams.

  • Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters

    Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters

    4 Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters Mark Staniforth In the nineteenth century the long sea voyage across thousands of miles of open ocean to Australia was a step into the unknown. International migration at this time usually involved travel by sea, as it had in previous centuries. Ships were the primary long distance transportation method and the movement of passengers was one of their most important functions. It has been estimated that more than 1.6 million immigrants travelled to Australia by ship between 1788 and 1900, nearly half of these people were assisted immigrants of one type or another and they came primarily from Great Britain with smaller numbers from Europe (Barrie 1989:121). In the popular imagination the ocean represented hazard and uncertainty - an alien environment in which the possibility of shipwreck loomed large. Passengers felt themselves to be at the mercy of the elements and being directly exposed to the extremes of the weather in a moving structure was a new and disconcerting experience. This fear of shipwreck can be seen in a letter from P. Harnett to his brother from Cape Town in 1832 who writes that: 'you and the family must have been frequently tormented by anxious hopes and fears of my safety or probably have heard that the vessel was wrecked and as a matter of course that I was lost' (Harnett 1832). In most respects shipwrecks, like other tragedies involving transportation, are civil or 'man made' disasters yet they also exhibit some of the 45 46 Disasters: Images and Contexts characteristics of natural disasters.l These include evoking in the victims feelings of powerlessness in the face of overwhelming natural forces and a timeframe which sometimes extends over a period of hours or even days.

Graeme Nicholson ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The RHSQ Bulletin, November 2020 – Page 2 President’s Report The year is now in its last few months and the end will be on us quicker than we think. It has been a strange year with the Covid restrictions and closures. Despite this there are still a number of significant events still to be held. At the recent Council meeting, it was resolved that Library and Museum Funds, to the extent of $3,000, be utilized to pay an honorarium to two young volunteer IT specialists to further assist with the upgrade of our current library catalogue and to provide necessary quality assurance. Quality assurance checking would involve reconciling the library items with their digital entries and addressing missing or errant records. This is an important quality control project. The volume of work undertaken by the museum volunteers and the committee has been extensive.
