  • EORA Mapping Aboriginal Sydney 1770–1850 Exhibition Captions
    1 A View in Port Jackson, 1789 T. Prattent after Richard Cleveley (1747–1809) Engraving (reproduction) From Arthur Phillip, The Voyage of Governor Phillip to Botany Bay, London, printed for John Stockdale, 1789 Bequest of Sir William Dixson, 1952 Q78/26, plate 4 ‘Nowey — A Canoe’ Philip Gidley King, navy lieutenant, 1790 This saltwater scene in Port Jackson shows Aboriginal men, women and children in bark canoes. Women fished with handlines and ‘crescent­ shaped lures’ that were ground and chipped from shells. Fires burning in the canoes were used to cook fresh fish and mussels, which they spat into the water to attract fish. The English engraver seems to have freely adapted the subject matter from naive watercolour field sketches by the unidentified ‘Port Jackson Painter’. 2 Chart of Port Jackson New South Wales Survey’d by Capt.n Iohn [sic] Hunter Second Captain of His Majesties Ship the Sirius 1788. Drawn from the original by George Raper Midn’. George Raper (1769–1797) Manuscript chart, pen and ink, watercolour ZM2 811.15/1788/1 After the first survey of Port Jackson in February 1788, George Raper, a 19-year-old midshipman and watercolour painter, copied this chart from one drawn by his commanding officer, Captain John Hunter of HMS Sirius. Freshwater sources are marked and inlets given English placenames, some of which are still familiar: Farm Cove, Camp Cove, Rose Bay and Manly Cove. Other names are no longer used, such as Garden Cove (Woolloomooloo Bay); Keltie Cove (Double Bay), named for James Keltie, sailing master of HMS Supply; and Blackburn Cove (Rushcutters Bay), after David Blackburn, sailing master of HMS Sirius.

  • Culture and Customs
    Sydney Journal 1(1) March 2008 ISSN 1835-0151 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/ojs/index.php/sydney_journal/index Hurlstone Park Lesley Muir and Brian Madden Hurlstone Park, in the City of Canterbury, is part of the traditional land of the Wangal people. Hawkesbury sandstone outcrops form cliffs above Cooks River at the southern edge of the suburb, and two small creeks once ran down the hill from the Canterbury Road ridge, ending in wetlands along the river bank. The land was part of a 673-acre (272.3-hectare) estate, inherited by Sophia Ives Campbell in 1846 from her father, the Sydney merchant Robert Campbell. Sophia subdivided her estate in 1865 into farm blocks fronting three roads, which were probably the old cart tracks used by quarrymen to access the quarries that produced sandstone used to build the Sugarworks (1840–42) and St Paul’s Church (1859–60) at Canterbury. These roads were later named Floss Street, Kilbride/Burnett Street and Fernhill Street (now Foord Avenue). The rich clay deposits beside the creeks provided raw material for brickmakers Anthony and Richard Blamire and William and Elijah Pendlebury towards the end of the nineteenth century. In 1874, Sophia Campbell resubdivided her estate into smaller farms, naming Canberra Street after the locality of Duntroon, the Campbell family’s estate in today’s Australian Capital Territory. Dunstaffenage, Duntroon, Kilbride, Melford and Crinan Streets commemorate landmarks in Scotland associated with the family’s ancestors. Dairy farmers, brickmakers and land speculators bought some of the allotments, but many remained unsold until after the route of the branch railway from Marrickville to Belmore, passing through this land, was approved.

Having researched the history of the local area and its subsequent development, it created an interest in the families who resided in Landford. The Jeffreys were associated with Landford Manor and Landford Lodge, and the Mitcham’s with Newhouse (see elsewhere).
