The latter was compiled in a relatively short 18 month period between 1988 and 1989, and since then a great deal of new material has been discovered, with more undoubtedly yet to be unearthed of relevance to this study. As a result the present document contains material of a similar nature to that in the 1990 work, with an added emphasis on items from the period 1850 to 1900. Also included are bibliographic references which bring up to date those contained in the previous work. All told, some 1000 pages of primary sources and references to published works are now available on the Illawarra and South Coast Aborigines for the approximate period 1770 to 1900, though an attempt has been made to include items from this century which outline some of the history of the central Illawarra and Shoalhaven Aboriginal communities. Important documents reproduced in this volume included blanket issue returns from the period 1827-30; index entries concerning Illawarra and South Coast Aborigines taken from the Colonial Secretary's Correspondence and Aboriginal Protection Board files at the Archives Office of New Southales, W covering the period 1868-1900; 1820s material from the Alexander Berry Papers (Mitchell Library), including references to his collecting of Aboriginal skulls; dreaming stories from various sources; reports of the Lake Illawarra Aboriginal Mission from the turn of the century; and references to the Coomaditchie Reserve at Port Kembla, which survives to this day. References to numerous published and unpublished archaeological reports are also included. An alphabetical listing of over 2100 Illawarra and Shoalhaven Aboriginal words compiled from historic references is included as an appendix.

    Information Sheet Woollahra Library Local History 5 Centre Shipwrecks of the South Head region Port Jackson has been known as a safe haven for sailors since 1788, when Captain Arthur Phillip declared it ‘the finest harbour in the world’. Even so, Sydney has not been free of maritime accidents - ranging from mishaps to tragedies. A few of the more notable incidents are described below. Negotiating the Heads The coastline outside the Port Jackson Heads can be treacherous in bad weather, and finding the entrance to the Harbour may be surprisingly difficult. The tragedy of the Edward Lombe – and other early accidents at The Heads On 25th August 1834, Captain Stroyan of the Edward Lombe battled big seas and gale- force winds off Sydney’s Heads for a full day, unable to locate the Harbour’s entrance in the murky conditions. After dark, Stroyan navigated the Edward Lombe through the Heads, guided by the faintly visible beam from the Macquarie Lighthouse – but without the benefit of a harbour pilot’s local knowledge. In the continuing gale, the barque was driven onto Middle Head, quickly breaking up on the rocky shore. Seven of the crew drowned, including the Captain, as did five of her passengers. After daybreak, local mariner Captain Swan, assisted by several Watsons Bay pilots, rescued seventeen survivors from the craft’s remains. The Edward Lombe was not the first vessel to be wrecked near the harbour’s entrance, but it was Sydney’s first major shipping disaster, and had various consequences. The Signal Station was re-built and equipped for night signalling, pilots were made available 24 hours per day, and Sydney residents were greatly moved by the tragedy – especially by the plight of one of the survivors who had lost both husband and brother, as well as all her possessions.

  • Issue 31, June 2019
    From the President I recently experienced a great sense of history and admiration for early Spanish and Portuguese navigators during visits to historic sites in Spain and Portugal. For example, the Barcelona Maritime Museum, housed in a ship yard dating from the 13th century and nearby towering Christopher Columbus column. In Lisbon the ‘Monument to the Discoveries’ reminds you of the achievements of great explorers who played a major role in Portugal's age of discovery and building its empire. Many great navigators including; Vasco da Gama, Magellan and Prince Henry the Navigator are commemorated. Similarly, in Gibraltar you are surrounded by military and naval heritage. Gibraltar was the port to which the badly damaged HMS Victory and Lord Nelson’s body were brought following the Battle of Trafalgar fought less than 100 miles to the west. This experience was also a reminder of the exploits of early voyages of discovery around Australia. Matthew Flinders, to whom Australians owe a debt of gratitude features in the June edition of the Naval Historical Review. The Review, with its assessment of this great navigator will be mailed to members in early June. Matthew Flinders grave was recently discovered during redevelopment work on Euston Station in London. Similarly, this edition of Call the Hands focuses on matters connected to Lieutenant Phillip Parker King RN and his ship, His Majesty’s Cutter (HMC) Mermaid which explored north west Australia in 1818. The well-known indigenous character Bungaree who lived in the Port Jackson area at the time accompanied Parker on this voyage. Other stories in this edition are inspired by more recent events such as the keel laying ceremony for the first Arafura Class patrol boat attended by the Chief of Navy.

  • NSW Budget- $108 Million Bus Boost
    Andrew Constance Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Gladys Berejiklian Treasurer Minister for Industrial Relations MEDIA RELEASE Tuesday, 14 June 2016 NSW BUDGET: $108 MILLION BUS BOOST Double decker buses will serve some of Sydney’s busiest routes, and around 3,800 extra weekly services will be added as part of a $108 million investment in new buses in the 2016- 17 NSW Budget, Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance and Treasurer Gladys Berejiklian announced today. The 80 seat double deckers can carry 65 per cent more capacity than normal size buses, and will be used on key corridors including the busy Rouse Hill-City service (route 607X), between Blacktown and Macquarie Park (route 611), and for the first time, the Liverpool- Parramatta Transitway (route T80). “Thousands of Sydneysiders rely on bus travel every day to get from A to B and we know demand for services is continually increasing, particularly in growth centres in the North West and South West, as well as in inner city areas like Green Square,” Mr Constance said. “This is all about staying ahead of the curve to ensure customers have sufficient levels of service well into the future. “Since coming to office, the NSW Government has delivered more than 15,800 extra weekly public transport services for customers and today’s announcement is further proof that we’re committed to putting on even more where and when they’re needed most.” Ms Berejiklian said the Government would continue to fund more services and infrastructure in the upcoming Budget. “These double decker buses have allowed us to deliver good customer outcomes and we are pleased to be rolling out more of them across Sydney,” the Treasurer said.

    Proposed Subdivision of Lots 682, 705 and 810, Manyana, NSW Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Assessment October 2005 Navin Officer heritage consultants Pty Ltd acn: 092 901 605 Number 4 Kingston Warehouse 71 Leichhardt St. Kingston ACT 2604 ph 02 6282 9415 A Report to Watkinson Apperley Pty Limited fx 02 6282 9416 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY An Aboriginal archaeological assessment including literature and database review, Aboriginal consultation and field survey, was conducted for a proposed subdivision of Lots 682 (DP 568678), 705 (DP 613881) and 810 (DP 247285) at Manyana, on the south coast of NSW. These three lots are residual lots from previous subdivision development of an area that has been progressively developed over the last 45 years. The current proposal forms an infill development to complete the subdivision of the area and is approximately 10 hectares in size. The Manyana study area is located within the boundaries of the Jerrinja Aboriginal Land Council which was not operational at the time of this investigation. However a representative of a traditional owners group from Jerrinja community was available to assist in the survey and participate in the project. Field survey of the study area located five new Aboriginal artefact scatters (MS1-5) and re-recorded two previously identified sites (CS14, CS25). The survey found that there was potential for artefacts to be located across most of the study area. The significance of the Aboriginal sites could not be determined based on current surface manifestations. It is considered that further archaeological assessment in the form of subsurface testing would be required to more accurately identify the nature and extent of the sites.

Digital discoveries : strategies and solutions : 29th annual conference of the Association of Technological University Libraries, (21 - 24 April 2008, Auckland) Access to the published version: http://www.iatul.org/doclibrary/public/Conf_Proceedings/2008/RWalsh 080318.doc Title Pixels & Partnerships: digital publishing and co-operative scholarship in Australian and British imperial history. Author Robin Walsh Macquarie University Library Sydney NSW 2109 Australia Contact Details [email protected] www.lib.mq.edu.au/digital/lema Abstract The efforts of libraries and archival institutions in collecting and curating dispersed collections of original letters, journals, pictorial sources, and realia/artefacts are essential contributions towards research and scholarship. Recent technological advances in digitization offer important new possibilities in the reproduction of documents and images as well as enhanced access to dispersed institutional holdings. The Lachlan & Elizabeth Macquarie Archive (LEMA) is a co-operative inter-institutional website project based at Macquarie University Library, in partnership with key Australian and UK institutions. The aim of the LEMA Project is to create a digital research gateway to the writings of the Lachlan Macquarie (1761-1824), governor of New South Wales from 1810- 1821 and his wife Elizabeth (1778-1835), and thereby assist in the study and analysis of their place in Australian and imperial history. The LEMA framework is designed to explore the personal and global contexts of the Macquaries through the use of full-text transcriptions of documentary sources, as well as contributing towards the identification and digital repatriation of personal objects associated with their lives.

  • Land of the Black Stump Dr Charles Fahey
    Land of the Black Stump Dr Charles Fahey Let me commence by stating how happy I am to have the opportunity to come to Launceston and attend this seminar. It is almost twenty years since I first came to Launceston to teach at the University of Tasmania, or as the Launceston campus was then called, the TSIT. During my short stay in Launceston I had the good fortune to participate in the formation of the Launceston Historical Society. It is quite gratifying to see that this society is still going strong. Since leaving Launceston I have lived in the former Victorian goldmining city of Bendigo, and have worked on the Bendigo and Melbourne campuses of LaTrobe University. In the past twenty years my research interests have focused on two major themes: the historical behaviour of the labour market and the historical evolution of rural and regional Australia. It is this second area that I will talk on today. A number of years ago Professor Alan Mayne, then of Melbourne University and now of the University of South Australia, and myself worked together on an ARC funded project to look at family and community in the Victorian goldfields. The main research for this work was undertaken using the resources of the office of Births, Deaths and Marriages and the great collection of personal papers from the gold rush deposited in the State Library of Victoria. Fortunately as part of the project we engaged a research scholar from the United States to undertake a doctorate. Our student, now Dr Sara Martin, had an interest in material culture and examined a range of objects and buildings and told the story of the people who used and occupied these.
