  • A Case Study of Conflict
    A Case Study of Conflict Above is a photograph of a monument in Esplanade Park, Fremantle. It is a memorial to three explorers - Frederick Panter, William Goldwyer and James Harding. They are portrayed in a metal plaque on the side of the monument. Below is a Bas relief of the three explorers The inscription on a plaque on the monument explains why it was erected. A Case Study of Conflict This monument was erected by C.J. BROCKMAN As a fellow bush wanderer's tribute to the memories of PANTER, HARDING AND GOLDWYER Earliest explorers after Grey and Gregory of this Terra Incognita, attacked at night by treacherous natives were murdered at Boola Boola near Le Grange Bay on the 13th November 1864 Also as an appreciative token of remembrance of MAITLAND BROWN one of the pioneer pastoralists and premier politicians of this State, intrepid leader of the government search and punitive party, his remains together with the sad relics of the ill fated three recovered at great risk and danger from the lone wilds repose under a public monument in the East Perth Cemetery "LEST WE FORGET" A relief on another side of the memorial depicts the scene of the discovery of the bodies of the explorers. Maitland Brown's expedition forced two Aborigines to lead them to the explorers' camp. The body of one explorer is depicted in the centre of the scene; the other two are in the tent to the right. The discovery of the bodies of the three explorers is described in Maitland Brown's journal in 1865 Journal of an Expedition in search of Messrs.

  • Colonial Expressions of Identity in Funerals, Cemeteries, and Funerary Monuments of Nineteenth- Century Perth, Western Australia
    Article Colonial Expressions of Identity in Funerals, Cemeteries, and Funerary Monuments of Nineteenth- Century Perth, Western Australia Sandra F. Hayward Independent Scholar, Perth, WA 6001, Australia; [email protected] Received: 23 May 2018; Accepted: 10 July 2018; Published: 18 July 2018 Abstract: A general cemetery was established in 1829–1830 for the town of Perth, Western Australia, and during the rest of the nineteenth century, other cemeteries were added to the complex to cater for various Christian denominations as well as for Chinese and Jewish communities. In all, seven contiguous cemeteries were used over the colonial period in Perth. By 1899, when the cemetery complex was closed, approximately ten thousand people were buried there. The deceased or their bereaved loved ones chose funerals, epitaphs, burial locations, and funerary monuments to express social, ethnic, religious, familial, and gendered identity. These expressions of identity provide more information than just birth and death dates for genealogists and family historians as to what was important to the deceased and their family. In the first half of the nineteenth century, identities were dominantly related to family, whereas later in the century, identities included religion, ethnicity, and achievements within the colony of Western Australia. Some expressions of identity in Perth contrast with those found in other Australian colonies, especially in regard to the use and types of religious crosses in the Christian denominations. Keywords: headstone; epitaph; mortuary symbology; Western Australia; settler colonial theory; deathscape 1. Introduction In December 1828, when the future Lieutenant Governor of Western Australia received his instructions from the British Colonial Secretary before sailing to establish the colony, the instructions included directions on establishing cemeteries.

  • West Kimberley Place Report
    WEST KIMBERLEY PLACE REPORT DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY ONE PLACE, MANY STORIES Located in the far northwest of Australia’s tropical north, the west Kimberley is one place with many stories. National Heritage listing of the west Kimberley recognises the natural, historic and Indigenous stories of the region that are of outstanding heritage value to the nation. These and other fascinating stories about the west Kimberley are woven together in the following description of the region and its history, including a remarkable account of Aboriginal occupation and custodianship over the course of more than 40,000 years. Over that time Kimberley Aboriginal people have faced many challenges and changes, and their story is one of resistance, adaptation and survival, particularly in the past 150 years since European settlement of the region. The listing also recognizes the important history of non-Indigenous exploration and settlement of the Kimberley. Many non-Indigenous people have forged their own close ties to the region and have learned to live in and understand this extraordinary place. The stories of these newer arrivals and the region's distinctive pastoral and pearling heritage are integral to both the history and present character of the Kimberley. The west Kimberley is a remarkable part of Australia. Along with its people, and ancient and surviving Indigenous cultural traditions, it has a glorious coastline, spectacular gorges and waterfalls, pristine rivers and vine thickets, and is home to varied and unique plants and animals. The listing recognises these outstanding ecological, geological and aesthetic features as also having significance to the Australian people. In bringing together the Indigenous, historic, aesthetic, and natural values in a complementary manner, the National Heritage listing of the Kimberley represents an exciting prospect for all Australians to work together and realize the demonstrated potential of the region to further our understanding of Australia’s cultural history.

  • The Panter Orrs
    THE PANTER ORRS . WILLIAM HENRY PANTER To quote from the “ Laindon and District Community Archive “ “ William Henry Panter was born at the Rectory , Laindon in 1841 . His father Frederick Downes Panter was a cleric in holy orders , and later became Rector of Thetford , Norfolk . William joined the Navy in 1855 at the age of 14 . He immediately went out to China with Admiral Keppel and served throughout the whole of the China war . He was a courageous man , or should we say boy , being involved in three engagements and in two boarding parties ; resulting in him being mentioned in dispatches and resulting in him receiving the China medal and two clasps . By the age of twenty , following several skirmishes he was appointed acting navigating sub–lieutenant by Admiral Sir James Hope . He was then given the command of a gun boat, and on the vessel being paid off , he was complemented by senior Naval Officers at Hong Kong for having brought home the vessel safely through one of the worst Typhoons ever known at the time . Only one out of the crew of thirty managed to get back with him . ( another source says that he returned with only 5 of the crew – the others being “ disabled “ by the terrible conditions . This sounds far less drastic – I had imagined terrible thoughts to explain how only 1 out of 30 crew made it back , as the Laindon archive report unbelievably suggested ) . In England he was appointed navigating sub–lieutenant of the Marlborough flagship in the Mediterranean , under Admiral Sir Robert Smart . Very shortly afterwards he was given command of a three gun , gun boat .
