There were three remarkable large hills lying continuous to each other, and not far from the shore. As these mountains bore some resemblance to each other, we called them The Three Brothers." 1818 15th October: Crossing and naming of Camden Haven River by John Oxley, after Lord Camden, John Jeffi'eys Pratt, 2od Earl and First Marquess of Camden, 1759-1840. Naming of Watson Taylors Lake, after Lord Camden's Private Secretary Watson Taylor. 1823 Soon after Port Macquarie's settlement Limeburners were working in Queens Lake area burning shells for lime for mortar in Port Macquarie and Sydney. 1826 "Trusty " sloop vanished taking lime to Port Macquarie, thought to have sunk. 1827 February: "Robert Dawson of the Australian Agricultural Company, commissioned Captain William Cromarty, an able sailor, to attempt an entry of the Manning River from the sea and to chart its channels. The Barnard-Manning River system had been explored in 1825 Henry Dangar (1796-1861) and named by Dawson in honor of William Manning, Deputy Governor of the Australian Agricultural Company. Dawson was anxious to establish its course. Cromarty made an unsuccessful attempt to enter Farquhars Inlet (Old Bar). He then walked along the coast to Port Macquarie. Dawson made another attack on the Manning the following Oct. He sent John Armstrong and John Guilding, an experienced planter and native of the Island of St.Vincent in the West Indies, north by sea from Port Stephens. This party first entered the Camden Haven River and liaised with soldiers stationed at 'another similar outpost to that at Soldiers Point, Port Stephens. This outpost located on the edge of Soldiers Bay on the eastern side of Watson Taylors Lake, was sited to intercept escapee convicts from Port Macquarie heading south. Only if convicts eluded this outpost would they reach Soldiers Point, Port Stephens. Although soldiers IJad been stationed on Watson Taylors Lake for some time, and although Limebdrners were living near Queens Lake and at the foot of North Brother Mountain (later Laurieton) it was still thought that the Camden Haven River and Manning River Systems were interconnected through Stewarts River. After discussion with the soldiers Cromarty decided to test this hypothesis. After navigating Stewarts River for some distance Annstrong dismissed the hypothesis and headed back to the open sea through Camden Haven. The survey party then entered 1he southern system through Harrington's Inlet and explored all the channels of the Manning in the Taree I Wingham area. After liaison with a land party from Booral led by Alexander McLeod, which had explored the southern branch from Farquhars Inlet, Armstrong established that Barnard I Manning system flowed out to the Pacific Ocean through two outlets, Harrington and f arquhars Inlets. inkts which John Oxley in 1818 had judged to be coastal lagoons ... :· Source ~ ·ewsletter no.172, April 1978 of the Royal Australian Historical Society Sydney.

  • Cadastral Integrity Loss from Riparian Boundaries
    Proceedings of the 24th Association of Public Authority Surveyors Conference (APAS2019) Pokolbin, New South Wales, Australia, 1-3 April 2019 Cadastral Integrity Loss from Riparian Boundaries Geoff Songberg Crown Lands (Retired) [email protected] ABSTRACT The loss of cadastral integrity is not something that would be expected in today’s systems of record keeping and enforced regulations that surveyors must adhere to in order to contribute to the cadastre. But there are some areas of the cadastre that are not reliable, and indeed wrong, despite all efforts to ensure that the records are correct. One area where the integrity of the cadastre can degrade is around riparian boundaries. By virtue of their ambulatory nature and the ways in which our cadastral system deals with that ambulatory nature, the end result of not dealing correctly with riparian boundaries can create issue with the integrity of the cadastre. Combine the impacts of ambulatory boundaries with the effects of poor and inappropriate management practices in the record keeping of the cadastre, then the integrity of the cadastre can be severely compromised. This paper shows that ignorance, or negation, of the rules pertaining to riparian boundaries can have a destabilising effect on the integrity of the cadastre. KEYWORDS: Cadastral integrity loss, riparian boundaries. 1 INTRODUCTION Everyone has a stake in the cadastre, from individual property owners, Government and its agencies to information seekers data mining the wealth of attached attributes so they can make critical decisions on investment, infrastructure and development. It is not an unreasonable hypothesis that all these people would expect the cadastre to be of a reasonably high quality and that it is maintained in such a condition.
