Clan Chisholm Newsletter 42(2007) Clan Chisholm Society NZ Newsletter # 42 November 2007 Editor’s note: A safe and happy Christmas to all readers, and good times for Inside this issue: 2008. This issue of the newsletter has a mix of articles, and From the President 2 news items, no one particular trend, although the Clan Chis- Society news 3 holm DNA project is quite topical at the moment, and weaves it way into many of the pages. Other current projects for the DNA: Dr Eve Lutz-MacKenzie 4 Society worldwide are the fine tuning of the International Ge- Blood of the Clan 6 nealogical database, organisation for the International gather- ing in 2008, and an Australian event in 2009.

Given that Hamish is the 33rd chief, allowing that some chiefs have been brothers rather than sons, and also allowing that there would be some generations prior to the entry of the first Chief into the historical record, let us assume that there have been 30 generations since the Chisholm name was established. Re- gardless of whether your own specific Chisholm family descends from this particular line, how many direct ancestors do you think you have had over the last 30 generations? Answer on page 6. Congratulations to Fay White on being re-elected as Convenor of the Wellington Branch of the NZ Society of Genealogists. Interactive Chisholm Genealogy-History on one CD , now for sale. The big advantage of the CD is that the documents are hyper-inked which makes searches that much quicker. It costs $30.00 plus postage. Proceeds go to the CCS DNA project .

Newsletter Editor: Robert Chisholm 09 817 7131 [email protected] Clan Chisholm Society NZ Newsletter # 42 November 2007 Page 1 From the President Dear Chisholm Clanspeople Greetings, one and all, Mainly, this is to forewarn you of events in the next two years. We decided at this year's AGM that in 2008 it should be in Wellington, and it's now scheduled for Saturday 24 May in the church hall, in Miramar, where we had it four years ago. This is later than in past years, and the reason is that our Secretary/Treasurer, Barry Chisholm, tends to be out of the country (or only just back) in late April. Various elderly members would presumably find the Miramar venue easier to get to than an out-of- town one. In 2009, we should have our NZ Clan Gathering in Dunedin, and if the late-May timing proves con- venient for people, would stay with that. Also, in 2009, all New Zealand Chisholms are warmly invited to come along to the Australian Clan Chisholm Gathering, at Glen Innes in New South Wales, from Thursday 30 April to Sunday 3 May. It will coincide with the annual Celtic Festival and Fair, centred on the Standing Stones Park in (or near) Glen Innes. This town is in northern NSW, north of Armidale, and looks to be more quickly ap- proached from Brisbane than from Sydney. See page 11 for more detailed information If you're thinking you could maybe get to this, please do contact Carolyn Chown, the Secretary of the Clan Chisholm Society of Australia, at: [email protected]. It's way ahead, as yet; but relatively early indications of serious interest would both help her planning, and enable her team to book accomodation for you. Alterna- tively, you could contact the Aussie Vice-President, Donald Chisholm, at: [email protected]. If enough of us turn up, it could become a kind of joint Gathering. Sadly, the recently elected President of the other clan body I belong to, the Clan Ross Associa- tion of New Zealand, Alan Ross, died a couple of months ago. He was 78, and on the day he died had just done a full day's school-teaching. A fine-looking man, his forte was pronouncing the Ad- dress to the Haggis. Our sympathy to his family, likewise to any of yourselves who have lost family members this year (as I have). Every good wish John C. Ross President: John Ross, 8 York Place, Palmerston North (06) 357 4614. email: [email protected] Secretary/Treasurer: Barry Chisholm, Palmerston North . Limited Edition of CD now available in New Zealand. Susan Chisholm of Chisholm has kindly arranged for this CD of highland tunes with a Chisholm flavour to be made available for NZ members. Price $20.00, available from John Ross. Great for yourself, and also for that special Christmas gift. Some of the tunes: Music varies between band, accordion, pipes, whistle & fiddle, and vocals. Ceud Mile Failte, The Old Chisholm Trail, Miss Chisholm of Chis- holm, Highland Laddie, Erchless Castle, The Ceilidh Song, Lament to William Chisholm, Ross’s March to Strathglass, Highland Wedding, and many others Clan Chisholm Society NZ Newsletter # 42 November 2007 Page 2 NZ Branch News: New Zealand War Graves Whilst travelling in Italy this year, our tour party stopped at a War Cemetery at Arezzo, just south of Florence, where fierce action had taken place against the Germans, when they made a stand over 4 days in July 1944 before being driven back. Nearly 1300 Commonwealth soldiers lost their life here, including 27 young New Zealanders. Amongst them was Private Percival Ewan Chisholm,25Bn, 2 NZ Div, son of William and Isabella Chis- holm of Fortrose, Southland. He was just 22. It is pleasing to report that the cemetery is beautifully kept and very peaceful. Contributed by Jan Peleton. (Pte Chisholm was a descendant of the country blacksmiths from Kirkhill, near Beauly, refer Chisholm Pioneers in Colonial NZ, page 174) Fronds of the Fern The death occurred in Dunedin, on 19th September after a short illness, of Bernard Stuart Chisholm, aged 80,the last remaining of eight brothers of Shona Kempton of Kaitangata . Stuart is survived by his wife Audrey, his three children and seven grandchildren. Our sympathies go to Audrey and family at this time. Sincere condolences also go to our President, John Ross, and his family, following the recent passing in Wellington on 27th October dear mother, Joyce Ross, nee Chisholm. William and Margaret Chisholm arrive in Whangarei Thanks to the Daily Southern Cross, which was edited in 1863 by the two sons of William Chisholm Wilson, we have a much better idea of how William and Margaret Chisholm went about establish- ing themselves in Kaurihorere. On April 30 1863, three months after their arrival on the Silver Eagle, waste land on the Apotu block, north of Whangarei, was put up for sale. And William Chisholm was involved in buying a large proportion of it, either by himself or with his Forsyth son-in-law. At that sale, in all, he bought approximately 600 acres for £600! Ten days later, according to the Whangarei Correspondent for the Daily Southern Cross, William had arrived in Whangarei on the Annie Laurie, with his family, goods and chattels and fourteen head of cattle."We hope and believe they will be a valuable accession to the district,” said the correspondent. Wedding Bells mixed with the sound of the bagpipes in October for Frances Chisholm, who married Richard Ayers. The service took place overlooking the Whau in West Auckland, on land which was part of the Whau estate of Frances’ great grandfather, colonial pioneer Robert Chisholm.

  • Dan Davin Re-Visited
    40 Roads Around Home: Dan Davin Re-visited Denis Lenihan ‘And isn’t history art?’ ‘An inferior form of fiction.’ Dan Davin: The Sullen Bell, p 112 In 1996, Oxford University Press published Keith Ovenden’s A Fighting Withdrawal: The Life of Dan Davin, Writer, Soldier, Publisher. It is a substantial work of nearly 500 pages, including five pages of acknowledgements and 52 pages of notes, and was nearly four years in the making. In the preface, Ovenden makes the somewhat startling admission that ‘I believed I knew [Davin] well’ but after completing the research for the book ‘I discovered that I had not really known him at all, and that the figure whose life I can now document and describe in great detail remains baffingly remote’. In a separate piece, I hope to try and show why Ovenden found Davin retreating into the distance. Here I am more concerned with the bricks and mortar rather than the finished structure. Despite the considerable numbers of people to whom Ovenden spoke about Davin, and the wealth of written material from which he quotes, there is a good deal of evidence in the book that Ovenden has an imperfect grasp of many matters of fact, particularly about Davin’s early years until he left New Zealand for Oxford in 1936. The earliest of these is the detail of Davin’s birth. According to Ovenden, Davin ‘was born in his parents’ bed at Makarewa on Monday 1 September 1913’. Davin’s own entry in the 1956 New Zealand Who’s Who records that he was born in Invercargill.

  • 202F District Newsletter
    1 202F District Newsletter Welcome to the DG’s fortnightly Blog, Well, the Corona Virus is on everybody’s lips at present. Due to this unfortunate circumstance there is a distinct possibility that Lions International are going to relocate this year’s International Convention in Singapore to a safer country. If you are attending this convention I would urge you to delay booking air flights etc until more positive information from International comes to hand. Watch this space for an update. Ann and I have just come back from yet another Convention ,this time it was in Christchurch District E. Another great time was had by all, this was a well organized ,well run Convention. The Saturday evening did not have a dance but the whole evening was taken up by clubs doing hilarious skits, we all had a lot of laughs. It was great to see all the Zones and the Clubs were well represented and committed to making the evening a great success. District E had thirty of their membership pass away during the last Lions year . At present we have had seventeen members pass away. Although our membership is fair we are still down in numbers at present, so I would urge all members in 202F to be more proactive in our ongoing quest to attract new membership and just importantly, to retain our current members. A point to ponder if younger individuals express an interest in joining a club. They are not generally interested in boring long winded tea meetings, their interest is in helping with environmental issues, community projects, and all things that are current within their community .

  • New Speed Limits Introduced Throughout Southland
    1 IN CONVERSATION WITH THE MAYOR come up with the $136,000 needed and among those getting involved were locals, businesses and the Tokanui CDA. It was an honour to offi cially open this project last year as it had come about with the community’s blood, sweat and tears; it illustrates the can do, no challenge is too big attitude that makes Southlanders and our District so special. Recently the Kids Restore the Kepler project won the Schools Award at the Southland Environment Awards. The project sees Southland children, from kindy age to high school working together with organisations help return the Kepler area to its former state. Again the community has got behind the project and has shown huge initiative and support. It’s a project that will benefi t Southlanders and visitors, and generations to come. Earlier this year Limehills School pupils got to work restoring the Limehills war memorial. What a fantastic effort! The Limehills Centre Bush CDA and Winton RSA both lent support and the project was a big success, and a wonderful way to mark this year’s Anzac centenary. I was blown away by the community-minded spirit of these young people and we can all be proud that young people like these are part of Mayor Gary Tong our community. The Blackmount community too are making positive change, We’ve got plenty to be proud of in working with Council to buy the area’s recently closed school the south. Our communities are buildings to turn into a community centre. I’ve signed up to doing some great work.

  • A Case Example from a Brown Trout Stream in Southland, New Zealand
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Available online at www.science.canterbury.ac.nz/nznsprovided by UC Research Repository Agricultural intensification, declining stream health and angler use: a case example from a brown trout stream in Southland, New Zealand Cohen Stewart1*, Rasmus Gabrielsson2, Karen Shearer2 and Robin Holmes2 1Southland Fish and Game Council, 17 Eye Street, Appleby, Invercargill 9810, New Zealand 2Cawthron Institute, 98 Halifax Street East, Nelson 7010, New Zealand * Corresponding author: [email protected] (Received February 2019, revised and accepted June 2019) Abstract The Otapiri Stream brown trout Salmo( trutta) fishery (Southland, New Zealand) has undergone a dramatic decline over the past five decades. Over the same period, agriculture has intensified in the catchment, switching from low intensity sheep and beef grazing to dairy support and forage crop. We compared historic (1960’s) and recent (2016) benthic invertebrate and electric fishing data and demonstrate substantial deterioration of the invertebrate community and reduced trout abundance. Compared with the baseline data, Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera (EPT) abundance declined by 84% in riffles. The greatest decline (98%) occurred in pool habitat. Disproportionately high decline of EPT abundance in pool habitat highlights a potential issue with standard invertebrate sampling methodologies used to collect data to inform national-scale stream health assessments. By sampling only faster water habitat types (i.e., riffle and runs), the impacts of land use intensification (e.g., sedimentation) could be being underestimated. In line with the observed decline in %EPT abundance, brown trout density has declined by approximately 71% and angler use of the fishery declined by 76% between 1994 and 2016.
