  • Explorer Identity
    1 MELBOURNE EXPLORERS TOUR Melbourne Explorers tour: URL: http://melbournewalks.com.au/explorers-school-excursion/ Website: www.melbournewalks.com Email: [email protected] Copyright Melbourne Walks © John Batman, Explorer and founder of Colonial Melbourne (1801 –1839) I was a Tasmania sheep farmer when I led an expedition to sign a ‘treaty’ with Aboriginal ‘chiefs’ in 1835 to found the settlement of Melbourne and the colony of Victoria. I captured bushranger Mathew Brady and married a runaway convict Eliza Callaghan. We had seven children in all. At Melbourne’s first land sale in 1837. I bought the Young and Jackson Hotel site opposite Flinders Street Station and built a home for my children.! Benjamin Baxter , Pioneer (1819 –1906) I arrived with wife Martha only two years after settlement. We had had nine children in all. St Kilda Road was once called Baxter’s Track after me. My first job was a convict supervisor. Later Martha and I ran the first Melbourne Post Office before becoming graziers. We lived to a great age and explored and founded the town of Baxter, south of Melbourne. Not a bad effort, eh? Captain John Lancey, founder of the site of Melbourne I was the captain of John Fawkner's schooner Enterprize , and in 1835 I chose the site on the Yarra that became the City of Melbourne. Yes I was the true founder of Melbourne, not that scrawny jumped-up little Johnny Fawkner. John Murray, discoverer of Port Phillip Bay (c.1775– c.1807) I discovered and was the first European ever to enter Port Phillip Bay, the bay on which the cities of Melbourne and Geelong are situated.

  • FIRST CONTACT in PORT PHILLIP Within This Section, Events Are Discussed Relating to the Colonisation of Port Phillip in 1835
    READINGS IN AUSTRALIAN HISTORY -The History you were never taught THEME 6: FIRST CONTACT IN PORT PHILLIP Within this section, events are discussed relating to the colonisation of Port Phillip in 1835. The names of the principal characters involved, that of William Buckley, John Batman, John Pascoe Fawkner and William Barak are well known to the public. However as the saying goes, history is written by the winners. This section therefore endeavours to lift the veil on this period of our colonial history through an understanding of the Aboriginal perspective. A little understood narrative dictated by William Barak in 1888 is examined to reveal new insights about the influence of William Buckley on Aboriginal thinking, and the location of the 1835 treaty meeting with Batman. AH 6.1 Buckley’s Adjustment to Tribal Life AH 6.2 Murrungurk’s Law AH 6.3 Barak’s meeting with Batman AH 6.4 Interpreting Barak’s story AH 6.5 Batman’s second bogus treaty AH 6.6 The Naming of the Yarra River in 1835 AH 6.7 Melbourne’s feuding founding fathers THEME 6 QUESTIONS FOR CONSIDERATION 1. If Buckley survived 32 years in Aboriginal society, was he as dumb as he was painted by some colonists? 2. If Batman had his treaties signed by eight Aboriginals, in ink, on a log, in middle of winter, how come there is not one ink blot, smudge, fingerprint or raindrop? 3. Who was the nicer person, John Batman or John Pascoe Fawkner? BUCKLEY’S ADJUSTMENT TO TRIBAL LIFE William Buckley is of course firmly entrenched in Australian history and folklore as ‘The Wild White Man’.

  • European Responses to Indigenous Violence in the Tasman World, C.1769-1850S
    ‘Of Red War and Little Else’: European Responses to Indigenous Violence in the Tasman World, c.1769-1850s Samuel Gordon Gardiner Ritchie A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Victoria University of Wellington 2013 ii iii For my Michelle and our Matilda Dylan arohanui, arohamai iv Abstract Europeans responded to indigenous internecine violence in a variety of ways in the Tasman world from first contact to the middle of the nineteenth cen- tury. Whereas extant historiography has previously addressed European responses to Māori and Aboriginal violence in geographic and temporal iso- lation, a comparison spanning time and space augments knowledge of these responses. Violence was not the only aspect of indigenous societies Europe- ans responded to, nor was indigenous violence the only justification for colonisation. However an investigation of the ways in which Europeans rep- resented and responded to indigenous violence enables a better understand- ing of the processes of the colonisation of the Tasman world. Indigenous internecine violence included cannibalism, infanticide, inter- gender violence, and inter-tribal warfare. Through a wide variety of Euro- pean observations of this violence, this thesis identifies an initial conceptu- alisation of both New Zealand Māori and Aboriginal peoples of Australia as violent, cannibal ‘savages’. This conceptualisation was used to justify both colonisation and the related evangelical and colonial administrative attempts to suppress indigenous violence, as internecine violence was deemed ‘un- civilised’, unchristian, and unacceptable. Europeans attempted to suppress indigenous violence as it was seen both as an impediment to colonisation and, relatedly, as an inhibitor to the ‘redemption’ of indigenous peoples.

  • Australian Labor Party (Victorian Branch) 46 Pages
    Suggestion 65 Australian Labor Party (Victorian Branch) 46 pages Victorian secretariat Phone (03) 9285 7197 Fax (02) 6293 7664 Email [email protected] The Victorian Branch, Australian Labor Party appreciates the opportunity of presenting its submission. In this section we outline our general strategy and its implementation. Then we provide more detail regarding specific Divisions where warranted and finally we provide reasons for our suggested new seat of Fraser and for the renaming of Batman to Wonga; Gellibrand to Cooper and McMillan to Monash. GENERAL STRATEGY & SUMMARY OF ITS IMPLEMENTATION We ask that the Commissioners think of Victoria as containing three rings or zones which should, as far as is practicable, be kept together. These are Rural and Regional Victoria; the interface Councils representing the outer and peri- urban parts of Melbourne and finally, inner Melbourne. Let’s deal with each in turn. RURAL & REGIONAL VICTORIA We can’t do better than quote from par 54 of the 2010 Report of the Commissioners proposals: “Local government and regional boundaries were used extensively in rural and regional areas as indicators of community of interests. The Committee adopted this approach based on the prominent role that local government plays in providing a significant range of services to, and in representing the interests of, their communities in rural and regional Victoria. Geographical features such as the Great Dividing Range and state borders also impacted on the configuration of the boundaries”. Our suggestions maintain the northern Greater Geelong City Council boundary, which is also the northern boundary of Corio as the natural starting point in the south separating Melbourne from Regional Victoria.
