  • ANGAS FAMILY PAPERS PRG 175 Series List John Howard Angas
    ___________________________________________________________________________ ANGAS FAMILY PAPERS PRG 175 Series List John Howard Angas (1823-1904) was the second son of George Fife Angas. He arrived in South Australia in September 1843, having been appointed to manage his father's estates in the colony. He settled at Tarrawatta near Angaston where he established a successful pastoral business and built a fine homestead called Collingrove. The purchase of further land and livestock soon made him one of the largest landowners and foremost stud-breeders in the colony. In 1871 he entered Parliament as the member for Barossa later becoming a member of the Legislative Council for the Central District from 1887-94. His social, religious and philanthropic interests were also extensive and influential, and he contributed generously towards the establishment of many colonial institutions, including the University of Adelaide. He left an estate worth some £800,000.1 Susanne Collins Angas, the wife of John Howard Angas, was the daughter of Richard Collins, a corn-factor of Bowden, near Manchester. Her marriage to J.H. Angas took place in England in May 1855. She returned with her husband to live at Collingrove, but ill-health caused them to return to England for some years during which time a son and daughter were born. She died in April 1910, six years after the death of her husband.2 Charles Howard Angas (1861-1928) was the son of J.H. Angas. After being educated at St. Peter's College Adelaide, and in England, he gradually assumed responsibility for his father's vast properties and interests. He too became prominent as a stock-breeder, most notably with Lincoln sheep, while his business interests included chairmanship of the Willowie Land and Pastoral Association and the S.A.

  • The Public Library of South Australia's Oral History Project, 1903-1908 B
    THE PUBLIC LIBRARY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA'S ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, 1903-1908 B. S. Baldwin The infant Historical Society of South Australia has recently been urging the State Library to interest itself more deeply in the field of oral history. Few people realise that the Library's parent body pioneered the concept in this country. Although, in the event, only one recording was produced at this early period, the project was far sighted in the extreme and unique for its time. Wax cylinder recordings were introduced to the Adelaide public on 25 November 1890 at a demonstration in the Town Hall, when Professor Douglas Archibald, M.A.(Oxon.), lectured on Edison's invention. A message spoken by Gladstone to Lord Carrington, Governor of New South Wales, was presented, and one by Lord Balfour of Burleigh to Lord Kintore, Governor of South Australia.1 Considerable further interest in the new medium was aroused at the time of Spencer and Gillen's Ethnographic Expedition to Central Australia in 1901-02, for James Angas Johnson (grandson of George Fife Angas and a Council member and benefactor of the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia, South Australian Branch) presented· the expedition with an Edison Concert Phonograph. 2 The new large cylinders (five inches in diameter) for this machine had first been placed on sale in 1898 by Edison's rivals, the American Gramophone Company, and were subsequently sold also by Edison.3 Their effective playing time was only two or three minutes, but original recordings made on them had considerably more fidelity than those on the smaller, better known type of cylinder.

  • My Pen Shall Add a Testimony to Men Noble and Daring’; Poetry, Heroism and the Wreck of the SS Admella (1859) Nicole Anae
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Flinders Academic Commons ‘My pen shall add a testimony to men noble and daring’; Poetry, Heroism and the Wreck of the SS Admella (1859) Nicole Anae The South Australian Register first coined the term ‘Admella poetry’ in November 1859, almost two months after the wreck of the inter-colonial steamer the SS Admella off the South Australian coast on 6 August 1859.1 The vessel, a Clyde built screw-steamer of 478 tons and costing £15,000, broke into three parts and of the 113 passengers and crew, eighty-nine lost their lives, with the nineteen survivors huddling for eight days on the Admella’s storm ravaged and severely damaged after-deck.2 Survivor James Miller later wrote in a letter, an extract of which was published in the Nelson Examiner and New Zealand Chronicle on 24 September 1859, that ‘For eight days, I may say I was face to face with “the King of Terrors,” but am yet alive by the blessing of God’ (3). Miller’s letter was just one voice in the unparalleled surge of missives newspapers around the country received from local and international readers in response to the wreck. The outpouring of sympathy and support in the wake of the disaster was unprecedented. Never before had one single event mobilised colonial communities throughout Australia. ‘The calamity was one which afflicted all. Legislation was suspended, shops were empty, crowds stood in the street day and night for a week.’3 Parliamentary members were involved in relief efforts at a bureaucratic level, while communities local and interstate organised charity events, and popular visiting and local theatre stars of the period donated proceedings from performances to the cause.

  • HISTORICAL EARTHQUAKES; the 1920S in SOUTH AUSTRALIA
    Australian Earthquake Engineering Society 2017 Conference, Nov 24-26, Canberra, ACT HISTORICAL EARTHQUAKES; THE 1920s IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA Kevin McCue Adjunct Professor, Central Queensland University, Rockhampton. [email protected] Abstract Newspaper searches following new scans by the Australian National Library have recovered 40 previously undocumented earthquakes in South Australia and information to revise known historical earthquakes over the decade of the 1920s. Date, origin time, epicentre location and magnitude have been assigned to these earthquakes. There are fewer than expected based on the frequency of earthquakes there in the instrumental period (Love, 1996). These historical earthquakes add to the remarkable database compiled by Dix (2013) who predicted that more earthquakes would be found in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. The detailed information gathered about them strengthens the imperative for earthquake hazard modellers to make use of this extensive database; they add to the debate about the frequency of large earthquake clusters. Australian Earthquake Engineering Society 2017 Conference, Nov 24-26, Canberra, ACT Introduction Dix (2013), formerly Malpas, used newspapers and then Trove (Australian National Library scanning system) to search for previously undocumented earthquakes in South Australia. Figure 2.7 from her thesis is reproduced below which shows a rapidly increasing number of earthquakes found per decade, matching the popualtion growth, but peaking in the 1880s and 1890s then decreasing from the 1920s though the population continued to grow. Part of this peak can be explained by aftershocks of the magnitude 6.5, 1897 Kingston and the magnitude 6, 1902 Warooka earthquakes. There were just a few very small aftershocks of the destructive 1954 earthquake under Adelaide but even so a small increase in the overall number of earthquakes that year.

  • 'Aboriginal' Or 'Black Fellow' Town of Penneshaw, Kangaroo Island, and Some Questions About Names
    ‘The Aboriginal’ or ‘Black Fellow Town’ of Penneshaw, Kangaroo Island, and some questions about names and myths Bridget Jolly Purpose of paper This paper contributes some history of Hog Bay’s colonial settlement and of the heritage of two women who in the early 2000s confirmed details of their descent from an Indigenous Tasmanian woman living on Kangaroo Island since the 1820s.1 Some questions it asks about early settlement have fewer answers than wished for. When misty oral transmissions, often inherited with uncertainty, the loss of memories over time, and of tangible evidence, combine with sparse written and illustrated records in a largely oral culture, speculation mounts. Yet this paper extends some certainty about land holding of the eastern ‘suburb’ of Hog Bay (known as ‘The Aboriginal’) and attempts also to dispel some associated mythical connections.2 The Aboriginal Reserve—————— A very short-lived Aboriginal Reserve existed on Kangaroo Island from March 1860. Its survey was prompted by a post script to a letter of 9 March 1855 to the Surveyor-General, Captain Arthur Freeling, requesting a survey of certain acres occupied by Thomas Johnston (sometimes Johnson) of Hog Bay. The 80-acre (32.4 hectare) Reserve was to start its eastward measure from Frenchman’s Rock – engraved in 1803 by Nicolas Baudin’s crewman – that is, ‘at East end of Freshwater [Hog] Bay commencing at end of land & sandy beach & running Eastward'.3 The applicant, William Wilkins, had originally applied in 1851 for this Aboriginal Reserve to be granted. He had settled on Kangaroo Island possibly before 1844, where he and William Walker who, like Wilkins, lived with a mainland Aboriginal woman, built the 11-ton William at American Beach.
