Laver Family LAVER FAMILY Jonas Laver, a farmer from Somerset, England arrived in Melbourne on board the ‘Maitland’ in 1846, and married Mary Ann Fry in 1854. They had seven sons, all of them helping to make up an unusually talented family in the medical, sporting and musical fields. Their third son, Charles William Laver, was born in Castlemaine, Victoria on the 26th June 1863, and moved to Western Australia in the 1880s, where he became a drover before returning to Victoria to attend the Medical School at the University of Melbourne. Marrying Edith Beatrice Attewell in 1904, he returned to Western Australia as a country doctor, where he was known as ‘Mr the Doctor’ by the Aborigines. The family lived at Laverton, Wellington Mills, Kanowna, Menzies and Midland Junction before moving to Kalgoorlie in May 1920,. Charles died in 1937, being survived by his wife and six children. Following Dr. Laver’s death, Mrs Laver and her daughters, Sheila and Elizabeth settled in East Melbourne. Sheila and Elizabeth returned to Kalgoorlie in 1979, they bought a house in Collins Street the following year, where they spent their retirement years.

  • AIMPE Supplementary SUBMISSION to HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVES
    AIMPE Supplementary Submission on Coastal Shipping SUBMISSION 52 AIMPE Supplementary SUBMISSION to HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STANDING COMMITTEE ON INFRASTRUCTURE, TRANSPORT, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT INQUIRY INTO AUSTRALIAN COASTAL SHIPPING AIMPE Supplementary Submission on Coastal Shipping SUBMISSION 52 1. Introduction During the hearing in Sydney on 17th April 2008, Committee Members asked a number of questions which required further detail to be provided. AIMPE has prepared a Supplementary Submission to deal with some of these areas requiring further detail. These include an identification of the vessels that are licensed and some more detailed information about those vessels including their country of registration [flag]. AIMPE also seeks to place before the Committee further information on the issue of the declared vessels which were referred to in the initial submission. The Committee sought extra detail about the Coastal Shipping task and the patterns of trade so AIMPE seeks to place more information regarding this matter on the public record. Further the question of training has attracted much discussion and AIMPE seeks to put a more detailed position to the Committee on that subject. During the initial hearing there was also interest from the Committee in the question of the interaction between cabotage policies and the concept of free trade. AIMPE responded verbally and now seeks to set out some information in writing for the Committee. Finally, the CSL submission generated some detailed questions from Committee members and AIMPE seeks to place further information before the Committee on the history of CSL operations both in Australia and elsewhere around the world. AIMPE Supplementary Submission on Coastal Shipping SUBMISSION 52 2.

  • Just Passing Through
    1 JUST PASSING THROUGH 1. INTRODUCTION I was born in Estonia. Leaving there as a teenager ahead of the second Soviet occupation of that country in September 1944, I became a refugee in Germany. Immigrating to Australia in 1949 and becoming a citizen, most of my working life was then spent in the minerals industry until retirement in 1999. Some of my friends, no doubt conscious of the relentless passage of time, have urged me to record my recollections. They have been mostly too gentle to add “before it is too late”. I had been doing this in considerable detail, including my family history going back just over 300 years and the events in Western Mining Corporation during the 25 years I was the Chairman. The complete record is too detailed to be of general interest and I have therefore prepared this selection of topics which, while omitting many episodes and only just touching on others, deals with many of the happenings in my life and includes reflections on a number of issues. It is not for publication, but a private document for a limited circle of family and friends. The initial manuscript was concluded in September 2005. Amended and updated on several occasions, it was finalised in January 2008. When considering past events, we must remember that the world then was different from today‟s. Even in my lifetime both the physical conditions of life – travel, communications, living standards generally – and people‟s attitudes, perceptions and values have gone through a great change. Going further back the changes are greater still.

  • Hamersley Iron and the Mount Newman Company
    Journal of Australasian Mining History, Vol. 11, October 2013 The Establishment of Iron Ore Giants: Hamersley Iron and the Mount Newman Mining Company, 1961–1969 By DAVID LEE Director of the Historical Publications and Information Section, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Adjunct Professor in History, Deakin University. etween 1938 and 1960 the Australian Government prohibited export of iron ore because of its belief that Australia’s limited accessible reserves of iron ore had B to be preserved for the Broken Hill Proprietary Company (BHP) and the Australian steel industry. After the Commonwealth hesitantly relaxed the embargo in November 1960 to encourage exploration, independent Australian prospectors Lang Hancock and Stan Hilditch revealed that they had already discovered huge deposits of iron ore in the Pilbara in Western Australia. This article explores the development of companies to mine these deposits during a period when the Australian Government, although lifting the iron embargo, attempted to regulate the prices that the companies negotiated with their buyers. The success of the two largest iron ore companies, Hamersley Iron and the Mount Newman Company, was based on their signing long- term contracts with the Japanese steel industry, which permitted them to obtain the considerable foreign capital needed to finance the infrastructure for mines located hundreds of kilometres from the coast. While that was the case and while Hancock and Hilditch were forced to approach overseas miners to initiate the development of mining companies, Australian management of both operations was also an essential part of the success of both ventures. End of the embargo, and iron ore discoveries of Lang Hancock and Stan Hilditch The embargo of iron ore from 1938 to 1960 was a period of steady growth in the Australian steel industry and of BHP, so much so that BHP’s management became strongly wedded to the maintenance of the export ban well after the Pacific War had ended.
