All being well Marie will resume her Area Administrators position on her return as her convalesence is progressing very well. Regards to all Doug Holmes (for the) Area Administrator *************************************** ATTENTION AMATEUR GENEALOGISTS My love of genealogy I subject to close scrutiny Is rooted in my family tree Each family portrait that I see Persistently I follow through Wondering of which family faces The generations, clue by clue, The lineaments of my own bear traces Tracing the threads of ancestry That, interwoven, fashioned me. And when a pictured face you know Be sure to label it and so From spidery script and tattered page, Prevent a fate that most would veto From lichened tombstones worn with age, Travelling the centuries incognito The names and dates, before they fade I seek - these are my tools of trade. The secrets of the past I seek. Could but these dusty records speak A death certificate maybe And tell me all I need to know or birth date from the registry, Of those who penned them long ago A marriage record, frail and bent - Each one a precious document; And many hidden facts I learn But not always the ones I yearn. The press of by-gone years may prove Where is that titled Earl I fancy A veritable treasure trove, And all the money held in chancery ? of faded letters from the past Provide a missing clue at last. The Highland Sergeant six feet tall With bearskin, swinging kilt and all Some find it good to hunt through miles Alas, too often in their place of carded land selection files, The family skeleton shows his face Probate certificates or wills Grinning to see the sins appear which also serve the gaps to fill. That have been buried many a year. Old shipping lists I oft peruse But what delight when I succeed For names of passengers or crews. In finding every link I need Hoping to find, recorded clear, To follow an unbroken line The ships that brought my people here. Way back to Sixteen forty-nine. Government gazettes ad infinitum In civilization's early dawn Can furnish many a helpful item: When animals were more feared than man Great Grandpa may even be A sturdy branch or leafy limb Gazetted for insolvency; Was Everyman's ideal home; And lists of shareholders and leases Sometimes include one's predecessors. Such shelters now are infra dig; But thankfully I still can seek old photographs can yield a clue From trials of Nineteen ninety-three But do be sure of 'who is who, - A refuge in my family tree The Grandma I framed with pride Proved to be 'some-one else's' bride.

RECORDS OF THE PIONEER WOMEN - 1835 - 1860 PREAMBLE An original copy of this book is held in the Rare Book Collection, Latrobe Library, State Library of Victoria. The book was published by Osboldson & Co., Pty Ltd, Temple Court Place, Little Collins Street, Melbourne. On page 393 of the September 1991 issue of the Genealogist, reference was made to a recollections of nineteenth century women. This was contained in the above mentioned book published in 1937 for the State's Centenary. Readers were advised that this was available on microfilm at the State Library of Victoria. I purchased a microfilm copy of this book, mainly because of the dearth of information about our pioneer women. This is now in the Warrnambool AIGS Library. Most of the many stories are eight or nine lines, some less, others are a lot longer, and all have been submitted by the Pioneer herself or members of her family. On the following page begins a precis of information in each instance, setting out married name, maiden name, dates of birth and death, and places where individuals settled.

  • The Gunditjmara Land Justice Story Jessica K Weir
    The legal outcomes the Gunditjmara achieved in the 1980s are often overlooked in the history of land rights and native title in Australia. The High Court Onus v Alcoa case and the subsequent settlement negotiated with the State of Victoria, sit alongside other well known bench marks in our land rights history, including the Gurindji strike (also known as the Wave Hill Walk-Off) and land claim that led to the development of land rights legislation in the Northern Territory. This publication links the experiences in the 1980s with the Gunditjmara’s present day recognition of native title, and considers the possibilities and limitations of native title within the broader context of land justice.

  • Important Budj Bim Works Begin Across Five Sites
    Monday, 11 January 2021 IMPORTANT BUDJ BIM WORKS BEGIN ACROSS FIVE SITES Works have started across the Budj Bim Cultural Landscape, as part of the Andrews Labor Government’s support for the Gunditjmara Traditional Owners to protect and develop the land so more Victorians can celebrate its history and cultural significance. Minister for Regional Development Mary-Anne Thomas today visited the site in Victoria’s south west to inspect the progress of works, alongside the region’s Traditional Owners and representatives from Glenelg Shire Council. The Labor Government is investing over $12 million in the project, including $8 million through the Regional Tourism Infrastructure Fund, to improve the tourist infrastructure of the area. The Government investment also contributed to Budj Bim’s successful bid in 2019 to become a UNESCO World Heritage listed site. The works include a new eel aquaculture and information centre, art installations, new raised walkways, a new cantilevered lookout, an upgraded information centre, entrance infrastructure, carparks and interpretive signage. Construction has started on all five project sites within the cultural landscape, including Tyrendarra Township, Kurtonitj, Lake Condah, Tyrendarra Indigenous Protected Area and Budj Bim. Budj Bim hosts the remains of over 300 Aboriginal stone houses – evidence of the Gunditjmara People’s permanent settlement in the area, as well as a sophisticated system of channels, fish traps and weirs used for farming eels. It is the only Australian site to be listed on the UNESCO World Heritage list solely for its Aboriginal cultural values. The new works follow extensive consultation with Traditional Owners over the past 18 months.

These small bumps make a ‘rumbling’ sound and cause a vehicle to vibrate when driven over. This alerts drivers if they move out of their lane and helps to prevent head-on or run-off-road collisions. In October through to early December, works will begin on the following roads: Road From/To location Glenelg Hwy Ballarat Sa Border Hamilton Hwy Geelong Glenelg Hwy Portland-Nelson Rd Henty Hwy Sa Border Penshurst-Warrnambool Rd Penshurst Princes Hwy West Warrnambool- Mailors Flat-Koroit Rd Caramut Rd Penshurst-Warrnambool Rd Penshurst-Dunkeld Rd Penshurst Glenelg Hwy Portland-Casterton Rd Princes Hwy West Glenelg Hwy Penshurst-Port Fairy Spencer Rd Rd Hamilton-Port Fairy Rd Penshurst-Port Fairy Rd Princes Hwy West Penshurst-Warrnambool Rd Bridge (Warrnambool) Rd Bushfield Warrnambool-Caramut Rd Warrnambool-Caramut Rd Warrnambool Caramut Coleraine-Merino Rd Coleraine Condah-Coleraine Rd Dartmoor-Hamilton Rd Princes Hwy West Hamilton Hamilton-Port Fairy Rd Henty Hwy Port Fairy Bridgewater Rd Portland Cape Bridgewater Henty Hwy Portland Sunraysia Hwy EHrick-Tyrendarra Rd Princes Hwy West Woolsthorpe-Heywood Rd Mckinnons Bridge-Noorat Rd Princes Hwy West Noorat Woolsthorpe-Heywood Rd Woolsthorpe Heywood Madeira Packet Rd Henty Hwy Henty Hwy (Loop) Hopkins Hwy Warrnambool Hamilton Hwy Coleraine-Merino Rd Coleraine Condah-Coleraine Rd Dartmoor-Hamilton Rd Princes Hwy West Hamilton Hamilton-Port Fairy Rd Henty Hwy Port Fairy Timing of works Works will be completed in two stages.
