  • Chapter 1 Pre-Settlement
    ¢¢CHAPTER 1 PRE-SETTLEMENT The Aborigines1 are believed to have been on the South Coast of New South Wales for at least 20,000 years, judging from dating of carbon found in a cave near Burrill Lake. It is hard to get such a number of years into perspective. A thousand generations? A hundred times the duration of white settlement? We are not used to such scales of time. It is short as geologists measure time, but it is long enough to include the peak of the most recent ice age, when sea levels were lower by up to 100 metres. The shore would have been further east, and Brush Island not an island at all, for much of this time. Few legacies of the Aborigines remain.2 Murramarang headland has a large midden which was found by anthropologists from the Australian Museum in the 1920s, and from which many artefacts were collected. At that time, the midden area was bare, with shifting sand dunes that would cover or expose parts of it, so on each visit you could expect to see something new. The present vegetation is recent, and the result of deliberate efforts to ‘stabilise’ the dunes.3 1 Today, the term Aborigine is rarely used, having been replaced by ‘Aboriginal people’ or ‘Indigenous people/communities’ (A.G. and S.F.). 2 Many legacies of traditional Aboriginal use and occupation of the area still remain. The area has numerous recorded archaeological sites, and one of the best known is the large midden on Murramarang headland (see previous section).

Their leadership came from the religious congregations of Brownist English Dissenters who had fled the volatile political environment in the East Midlands of England for the relative calm and tolerance of Holland in the Netherlands. Concerned with losing their cultural identity, the group later arranged with English investors to establish a new colony in North America. The colony, established in 1620, became the second successful English settlement (after the founding of Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607) and later the oldest continuously inhabited British settlement in what was to become the United States of America. The Pilgrims' story of seeking religious freedom has become a central theme of the history and culture of the United States. History Separatists in Scrooby The core of the group that would come to be known as the Pilgrims were brought together by a common belief in the ideas promoted by Richard Clyfton, a Brownist parson at All Saints' Parish Church in Babworth, Nottinghamshire, between 1586 and 1605.

  • Deal Island an Historical Overview
    Introduction. In June 1840 the Port Officer of Hobart Captain W. Moriarty wrote to the Governor of Van Diemen’s Land, Sir John Franklin suggesting that lighthouses should be erected in Bass Strait. On February 3rd. 1841 Sir John Franklin wrote to Sir George Gipps, Governor of New South Wales seeking his co-operation. Government House, Van Diemen’s Land. 3rd. February 1841 My Dear Sir George. ………………….This matter has occupied much of my attention since my arrival in the Colony, and recent ocurances in Bass Strait have given increased importance to the subject, within the four years of my residence here, two large barques have been entirely wrecked there, a third stranded a brig lost with all her crew, besides two or three colonial schooners, whose passengers and crew shared the same fate, not to mention the recent loss of the Clonmell steamer, the prevalence of strong winds, the uncertainty of either the set or force of the currents, the number of small rocks, islets and shoals, which though they appear on the chart, have but been imperfectly surveyed, combine to render Bass Strait under any circumstances an anxious passage for seamen to enter. The Legislative Council, Votes and Proceedings between 1841 – 42 had much correspondence on the viability of erecting lighthouses in Bass Strait including Deal Island. In 1846 construction of the lightstation began on Deal Island with the lighthouse completed in February 1848. The first keeper William Baudinet, his wife and seven children arriving on the island in March 1848. From 1816 to 1961 about 18 recorded shipwrecks have occurred in the vicinity of Deal Island, with the Bulli (1877) and the Karitane (1921) the most well known of these shipwrecks.

EX AIT. IN AUSTRALIA. By R. C. Carolin, University of Sydney. (Four Text-figures.) [Read 29th November, 1961.] Synopsis. Seven indigenous species of Pelargonmm are distinguished and described, P. helmsii for the first time. P. littorale Hiigel and P. drummondii Turcz. are reinstated. Introduced species are also considered. Some problems raised by the distributions of the various species are discussed. Introduction. The genus Pelargonium lias attracted considerable attention due to the horticultural value of many of the species. It is not surprising, then, to find the most showy of the species occurring on the eastern seaboard of Australia being cultivated in Europe at quite an early date. P. australe was described by Willdenow in 1800 and it appears that it was widely cultivated even then. P. inodoriim was described by the same worker a little later and, subsequently, the name was misapplied to a number of Table l.
