    Cootamundra War Memorial

    COOTAMUNDRA WAR MEMORIAL ALBERT PARK – HOVELL STREET COOTAMUNDRA WORLD WAR 1 HONOUR ROLL Compilation by Kevin Casey, Breakfast Point 2012 COOTAMUNDRA WAR MEMORIAL – WORLD WAR 1 A marble obelisk and other memorials have been erected in Albert Park in memory of those citizens of Cootamundra and District who served and died in the defence of Australia during times of conflict. The names of many of those who served in World Wars 1 and 2 are engraved and highlighted in gold on the obelisk. This account has been prepared to provide a background to the men associated with the Cootamundra district who served and died in World War 1. While it is acknowledged that an exhaustive list of local men who served in the war has not been compiled, this account briefly highlights the family and military backgrounds of those who did and who are recorded on the obelisk. Other men not listed on the obelisk but who were associated with the district and who also served and died in the war have been identified in the course of the research. They are also included in this account. No doubt further research will identify more men. Hopefully this account will jog a few memories and inspire further research into the topic. An invitation is extended to interested people to add to the knowledge of those who served Those who served came from a wide range of backgrounds. A number of the men had long family associations with the district and many have family members who are still residents of the district.
  • The Secret Life of Elsie Curtin

    The Secret Life of Elsie Curtin

    Curtin University The secret life of Elsie Curtin Public Lecture presented by JCPML Visiting Scholar Associate Professor Bobbie Oliver on 17 October 2012. Vice Chancellor, distinguished guests, members of the Curtin family, colleagues, friends. It is a great honour to give the John Curtin Prime Ministerial Library’s lecture as their 2012 Visiting Scholar. I thank Lesley Wallace, Deanne Barrett and all the staff of the John Curtin Prime Ministerial Library, firstly for their invitation to me last year to be the 2012 Visiting Scholar, and for their willing and courteous assistance throughout this year as I researched Elsie Curtin’s life. You will soon be able to see the full results on the web site. I dedicate this lecture to the late Professor Tom Stannage, a fine historian, who sadly and most unexpectedly passed away on 4 October. Many of you knew Tom as Executive Dean of Humanities from 1999 to 2005, but some years prior to that, he was my colleague, mentor, friend and Ph.D. supervisor in the History Department at UWA. Working with Tom inspired an enthusiasm for Australian history that I had not previously known, and through him, I discovered John Curtin – and then Elsie Curtin, whose story is the subject of my lecture today. Elsie Needham was born at Ballarat, Victoria, on 4 October 1890 – the third child of Abraham Needham, a sign writer and painter, and his wife, Annie. She had two older brothers, William and Leslie. From 1898 until 1908, Elsie lived with her family in Cape Town, South Africa, where her father had established the signwriting firm of Needham and Bennett.

    BDA Source Description Pages Sydney Burial Ground

    BDA Source Description Pages http://www.bda-online.org.au Sydney Burial Ground – Re-interment Register 1900 The Title page from the following book reads: Sydney Burial Ground 1819-1901 (Elizabeth and Devonshire Streets) and History of Sydney’s Early Cemeteries from 1788 by Keith A. Johnson and Malcolm R. Sainty. published by the Library of Australian History, Sydney 2001. The book details a comprehensive history of the cemetery. One of the main sections of the book deals with the Re-interment Register that was compiled by the Department of Public Works of the NSW government in 1901, to record the names of the deceased who were being removed to make way for Sydney’s Central Railway Station. The history of this process, taken from the book, is reproduced below. The book also contains copies of documents relating to this process. It is copyright. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Removal of Sydney Burial Ground in 1901 N.S.W. Government Gazette 22 January 1901, P. 433. Department of Public Works Sydney. 17 January 1901 City Railway Extension and Devonshire Street Cemetery It having been determined to extend the City Railway to Devonshire Street, notice is hereby given that in all cases where application has been made to the Minister of Justice by the representative of deceased persons buried in the Devonshire Street Cemetery and permission obtained to exhume such bodies with the sanction of the cemetery trustees within 2 months from this date the Department of Public Works will bear all reasonable expenses incurred in the re-interment of such bodies in such cemetery as the said representatives may desire.
  • Rookwood Sectional Notes

    Rookwood Sectional Notes

    Rookwood Sectional notes These notes are intended to assist in locating particular graves at Rookwood. The section names and grave numbers are as allocated by the relevant cemetery authority. The row numbers have been ascribed by SAG for the purpose of making clear where rows start and end, and also to assist in locating graves. However, they are not part of the cemetery record. The absence of a section from these notes indicates that the numbering system and location of graves within a section is expected to present the researcher no difficulty. Grave numbers are generally inscribed on the headstone itself, or on the kerb. In some cases they have been obtained from the burial registers maintained by the relevant trustees. The grave numbering systems used by the various cemetery trusts have varied from time to time, and from trust to trust. In some cases the graves in a row are numbered (e.g.) 1, 3, 5, 7 etc with the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8 etc used in the row behind. We refer to this system as "alternate numbering". In other cases the graves are numbered in strict numerical sequence (e.g.) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc. We refer to this system as "sequential numbering". If in doubt about the system in use, viewing a Nearby Graves report will generally reveal the pattern of numbering. In some sections, or in particular rows, the situation is confused by the use of both systems, apparently as a result of the section being extended in area at some stage. The notes below alert the user to these situations, but it is impossible in these notes to provide detailed guidance.

It is a place of 4 5 remembrance and peace; however it is also historically and culturally significant. The first burial at Rookwood took place in 1867, after the Sydney colony outgrew its previous cemeteries, located at the site of the current Sydney Town Hall and near Central Station. Rookwood Cemetery now conducts over 5,500 burials and cremations annually and caters for up to ninety different religious and cultural groups. Rookwood General Cemeteries Reserve Trust (RGCRT) was established in 2012, by the Minister for Primary Industries the Honourable Katrina Hodgkinson, to unite the former Anglican, General, Independent, Jewish and Muslim Trusts that managed Rookwood. Today we are custodians of 190 hectares of the cemetery, which equates to two-thirds of this iconic site. The remainder is managed by the Catholic Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (CMCT) and the Rookwood Memorial Gardens and Crematorium. Since the amalgamation RGCRT has transformed into a stronger, more unified organisation.

Designed in the traditional grid-like layout, popular in the Victorian era, the cemetery is demonstrative of the early European community’s need for burial grounds. The fabric, setting and context of the site are all important. The cemetery has distinct sections which show its evolution from a Victorian cemetery, established in the 1870s, to one that includes newer forms of burial, such as the war and lawn cemeteries. Within the cemetery grounds is an early and intact shelter built in 1891 and the sexton’s residence, a substantial interwar timber house on the corner of Gympie and Kitchener Roads. The cemetery has an important Commonwealth War Graves Commission burial section on the site which contains 386 World War II graves. Mature trees on the site, which include rows of Camphor Laurel and Cypress Pine trees, add to the site’s significance and visual appeal. History “Cemeteries not only help explain our past, they also provide a sense of continuity and identity. So our burial grounds reflect vital aspects of our social, religious, folk, architectural, literary and botanical history which are not found in such a combination in any other place.”1 1 After the declaration of Queensland as a colony, separate to New South Wales, in 1859, the new Queensland Government was anxious to increase the colony’s population and to encourage agricultural settlements.
