  • Tidal Wave of Construction and 1300 Jobs Heading for South Australia
    Tidal wave of construction and 1300 jobs heading for South Australia 11/10/2020 | Corey Wingard MP | More Jobs | Better Services A tidal wave of major construction is heading for South Australia with works starting on more than $1 billion worth of infrastructure projects within the next six months. The building boom kicks off this month and will support more than 1,300 jobs as the Marshall Government continues to build what matters to South Australians. Major construction begins on two of the biggest regional infrastructure projects ever undertaken in this state - the Port Wakeeld Overpass and Highway Duplication and the Joy Baluch AM Bridge Duplication Project. Showcasing a commitment to improving regional roads, next month shoulder sealing works will also begin on the Tod and Birdseye Highways. In metropolitan Adelaide, major construction works will start by the end of the year on the much anticipated upgrade of the intersection of Goodwood, Springbank and Daws Roads, as well as the Main North, Kings and McIntyre Roads Intersection Upgrade. Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Corey Wingard said these important projects will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most. “The economic challenges our state is facing at the moment are unprecedented,” Minister Wingard said. “Getting major works started on infrastructure projects across South Australia will help keep the economy ring as we navigate our way through the COVID-19 pandemic. “Creating jobs is critical to our economic recovery and we’re delivering around 1,315 over the next six months in road infrastructure projects alone.

  • Hon Corey Wingard MP Minister for Infrastructure and Transport
    Hon Corey Wingard MP Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Saturday 20 February 2021 Stimulus spending boosting jobs and road safety Hundreds of local jobs will be created and road safety improved across the state with around $233 million in contracts awarded and tenders for release by the Marshall Liberal Government in the first two months of 2021. A total of 19 contracts worth nearly $85 million were awarded during January 2021, as the South Australian and Australian governments invest in metropolitan and regional road upgrades from the South Eastern Freeway to Ceduna. Nine tenders released to market in January 2021, total around $78 million which include pavement rehabilitation and sealing on the Stuart Highway. Expected tenders for release to market in February 2021, total at least $70 million which include pavement rehabilitation along Port Road between Junction Road and East Avenue. Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Corey Wingard, said the Marshall Government was committed to boosting jobs, business and infrastructure. “The Marshall Liberal Government’s congestion busting response to the COVID-19 pandemic is in full swing,” Minister Wingard said. “South Australia is facing its most challenging economic period in living memory and investing in projects that will get people into jobs sooner will keep our economy firing during this extremely difficult time. “This is another part of our plan to keep South Australia safe and strong, by creating jobs, backing business and building what matters. “The Marshall Government is focused on getting people from A to B faster so they can spend less time sitting in traffic and more time with their families doing what they love.

  • 2010 Winter Newsletter.PDF
    CLARE REGIONAL HISTORY GROUP NEWSLETTER WINTER - 2010 ________________________________ Churches Lost or Saved by Conversion! The early European settlers in the Colony of South Australia brought with them much faith. Faith in a new beginning; faith in political and religious freedom; faith in a better future for their children. As still evidenced by the many churches and chapels that enhance the towns, villages and countryside of the Clare Valley they brought with them implicit faith in Christianity. This was a diverse faith as many settlers, being free to do so, followed the beliefs of their past experiences. Whilst some of the diversity has lessened, much remains and is evidenced by the variety of church buildings remaining. A Church Lost - Wesleyan Chapel, later Methodist Church, Penwortham c.1890 In the vey early times these were simple, humble gathering places but as fortunes improved more substantial structures were built. In this Winter 2010 edition of our Newsletter we look at some of those that have been lost and some of those that have been converted. The churches, lost, converted or remaining and the congregations that have gathered within them over the past 160 years are a vital part of our history and heritage.

  • Flower, Humphrys, Smith & Thomas Family Ancestry, 1717-2015 From
    SAMPLE only - ie only the first page of each section displayed. Flower, Humphrys, Smith & Thomas Family Ancestry, 1717-2015 from Somerset & Cornwall UK to South Australia including Clarence Humphrys WW1 diary 1916-1917 Pencil Sketch by Clement Humphrys, c1930. Neil D Brooks 1 SAMPLE only - ie only the first page of each section displayed. Forward to the book “Flower, Humphrys, Thomas, Smith Ancestry”. Having compiled the book “Redruth Cornwall to The Burra SA”, I wish to stress the importance of compiling family historic records. Following the publication of my book, I was invited to an annual get-together by the “Genealogy Society of South Australia”, of those who published family histories during the year. They commented on each particular publication, offered helpful advice, and stressed the importance of such records, not only of the family records but the inclusion of the early development of the area of white settlement. The period we are looking at is from about late 1840’s, South Australia was proclaimed in 1836 and records were not very meticulously kept in those early years. Burra was the largest town outside of Adelaide at that time in South Australia. Many came from Cornwall in particular to work in the mine, but sought to find a livelihood in other industries such and farming and grazing. As the Humphrys book links with the Thomas history it fills a valuable record of that branch of the family. Of course each book follows a particular line of a family such as the Thomas descendants, so this researches the Humphrys family from 1717, for which they were fortunate to be able to trace that far back.
