  • Inaugural Speech
    Madeleine Ogilvie MP House of Assembly Date: 7 May 2014 Electorate: Denison Address-in-Reply Ms OGILVIE (Denison - Inaugural) - Madam Speaker, Tasmania, our beautiful island state, sits awash and offshore in the Southern Ocean. We have here in Tasmania a collective love of the sea. It is the ocean that has brought many of us here: for half of my family, five generations ago by boat, not on a date of their choosing, and the other side of my family again arriving by boat after World War II. We are all boat people and we understand the love and lure of the sea, both in relation to our industries and our sporting pursuits including, of course, our international yachting event, the Sydney-Hobart. It is no surprise to me that we are so willing to welcome refugees, yet we are newcomers to this island home. With 60 000 years of human history existing here, it is important to recognise the original peoples of Tasmania and the important and continuing role they play as custodians of a living tradition here on our island. I wear today as a mark of deep respect a shell necklace made in the traditional Aboriginal manner and was very touched that the maker thought it appropriate that I do so today. It is also fitting that one of the oldest cultures in the world should be remembered in one of the most cultural cities in the world, a place of astounding natural beauty. Behind this classic building in which we stand today is a mountain that helps define Hobart and gives the city a landmark that is always present in the hearts of Tasmanians wherever we go.

    Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 115, 1981 (ms. received 8.2.1980) JAMES MEEHAN'S SURVEY OF HOBART TOWN IN 1811 by Frank Bolt Kingston Beach, Tasmania (with two text figures) ABSTRACT BOLT, Frank., 1981 (30 ix): ,Tames Meehan's survey of Hobart "rown in 1811. Pap. Proc. R. Soc. Tasm. 0 115, 5-18 (with two figs.). ISSN 0080-4703. Kingston Beach, Tasmania, Australia. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.115.5 During his visit to Hobart Town in 1811, Governor Macquarie instructed Ac ting Surveyor James Meehan to make a design for the layout of this small but growing settle­ ment on the shores of the Derwent River. The field notes of Meehan's survey work executed as a result of these instructions were recently rediscovered and were analysed and plotted by the author, enabling him to show in map form his interpretation of these survey notes. The resulting map portrays an interesting picture of Hobart Town during the Collins period which is not complete. This interpretation of Meehan's survey notes may encourage further studies. JAMES MEEHAN' S SURVEY OF HOBART TOWN After taking office in 1810 Governor Macquarie decided to make a personal inspection of Van Dieman' s Land in general, and of Hobart Town in particular. !le found on his arrival in Hobart (November 23rd, 1811) a collection of miserable huts interspersed with some structures built of brick, public buildings of an unsatisfactory quality, and a few muddy tracks and laneways, wandering at random across the hilly slopes, along several rivulets and the shores of Sullivans Cove.
