  • Shas of SA: Burra Smelts Historic Site
    Burra Smelts Historic Site Smelts Road, Burra SAHR 10989 – confirmed as a State Heritage Pl ace 8 November 1984 The Burra Smelts Historic Site is a distinct region within the Burra State Heritage Area, and is a State Heritage Place entered in the South Australian Heritage Register. It is located adjacent to, but across the creek from, the Burra Mines Historic Site, and encompasses structures, buildings and ruins of the Burra Smelting Works. It is historically significant, representing an industry that was integral to Burra's copper mining past, and one of the earliest major smelting works established in South Australia. The smelting works was established in 1849 when the South siSmelts te from mine lookout Australian Mining Association leased an area, on the eastern side of Burra Creek, to the Patent Copper Company (later the English and Australian Copper Company). Initially the copper ore had been transported to Swansea, Wales, for smelting, and later to Yatala in South Australia, but neither of these situations solved the problem of carting the unprocessed ore over long distances on unmarked roads and dirt tracks. During 1848, before the smelter was established at Burra, it is estimated that at least 1 200 bullock carts were on the road, each carrying two-and-a-half tons of ore. By mid-June of 1849 the smelting works was completed, and six large furnaces were ready to fire. Welsh and German smelters were brought in to work the smelting works and added a multi• cultural mix to Burra's predominantly Cornish mining population. By 1851 more than 1 000 men were employed at the smelting works, which had 16 furnaces in operation, using about 150 tons of wood daily, cut from the Murray scrub to the east of town.

  • Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters
    4 Shipwrecks: Images and Perceptions of Nineteenth Century Maritime Disasters Mark Staniforth In the nineteenth century the long sea voyage across thousands of miles of open ocean to Australia was a step into the unknown. International migration at this time usually involved travel by sea, as it had in previous centuries. Ships were the primary long distance transportation method and the movement of passengers was one of their most important functions. It has been estimated that more than 1.6 million immigrants travelled to Australia by ship between 1788 and 1900, nearly half of these people were assisted immigrants of one type or another and they came primarily from Great Britain with smaller numbers from Europe (Barrie 1989:121). In the popular imagination the ocean represented hazard and uncertainty - an alien environment in which the possibility of shipwreck loomed large. Passengers felt themselves to be at the mercy of the elements and being directly exposed to the extremes of the weather in a moving structure was a new and disconcerting experience. This fear of shipwreck can be seen in a letter from P. Harnett to his brother from Cape Town in 1832 who writes that: 'you and the family must have been frequently tormented by anxious hopes and fears of my safety or probably have heard that the vessel was wrecked and as a matter of course that I was lost' (Harnett 1832). In most respects shipwrecks, like other tragedies involving transportation, are civil or 'man made' disasters yet they also exhibit some of the 45 46 Disasters: Images and Contexts characteristics of natural disasters.l These include evoking in the victims feelings of powerlessness in the face of overwhelming natural forces and a timeframe which sometimes extends over a period of hours or even days.

  • South Australia & the Cornish Transnational Identity Philip Payton
    Regional Migration in SA: How Early Migrants Shaped Our Culture – A Cornish Case Study Philip Payton Summary • South Australia has long enjoyed a prominent place in both the historiography and ‘mythology’ of the Cornish transnational identity, from the ‘coppermania’ of Kapunda and Burra Burra in the 1840s to the rise of ‘Australia’s Little Cornwall’ at Moonta and environs in the 1860s and subsequently. This talk examines the enduring cultural impact of these early Cornish migrants in SA, and seeks to place South Australia’s Cornish connection within the broader contextual framework of ethno-cultural diversity and heterogeneity in Colonial and pre-WW2 Australia as a whole. It also locates the SA experience within the expansion of the nineteenth-century hard-rock mining frontier and the emergence with the Cornish transnational identity. Here the 1840s and 1860s are seen to be pivotal decades in the development of both the frontier and the transnational identity, establishing among other things a symbiotic relationship between Cornwall and South Australia at moments of rapid and profound change. This symbiosis was responsible, it is argued, for the privileged place of South Australia within ‘imaginings’ of the Cornish diaspora but also for the diverse nature of the cultural impact – economic, technological, religious, political, and so on – of those early migrants in SA itself.

  • South Australia's Cornish Mining Landscapes
    Place, Community And Identity: South Australia’s Cornish Mining Landscapes Philip Payton Proceedings of: Place, Community and Identity: South Australia’s Cornish Mining Landscapes The copper-mining landscapes of South Australia – principally those of Burra Burra in the mid-North and Moonta and environs on northern Yorke Peninsula – are today striking reminders of the State’s significant role in the mid-nineteenth century in the expansion of the international mining frontier and the attendant Cornish transnational identity. They are best understood against the background of the nineteenth-century Cornish diaspora (Payton: 2005). The economic marginalisation that progressively overtook Cornwall as the nineteenth century wore on precipitated a widespread exodus, spurred on by the political discontent of the ‘Reforming Thirties’ and the near-starvation of the ‘Hungry Forties’, and complementing the strong demand that existed already for Cornish agriculturalists and (especially) skilled Cornish miners on the rapidly expanding frontiers of America, Australia and South Africa. This was the ‘Great Emigration’, a sustained movement of people (miners and others) that was to characterise the Cornish experience until the years before the outbreak of the Great War in 1914. A.C. Todd considered that it ‘seems reasonable to suppose that Cornwall lost at least a third of its population’ (Todd: 1967, 19) in the nineteenth century, while Dudley Baines offers some frightening statistics. Between 1861 and 1900, he says, Cornwall lost no less than 10.5 percent of its male population overseas and 7.0 percent to other counties (far and away the greatest percentage loss of any county), with a corresponding loss of 5.3 percent of the female population overseas and 7.1 percent to other counties.
