Hogarth Esq My dear Sir, I have just sent off to you Pr “Gambia” mail via Calcutta a packet containing 5 original sketches I have made from the spot of the Australian Gold field at “Ophir” - for publication, & dividing profits - I think them very likely to have an immense sale – they must be got up in the first style of art, & I give you the London Copywright; so that no one else may bring out spurious copies from those lithographed here - I think Harding is the man for them - you should loose no time in getting them out – I now enclose you duplicate tracings in case the originals might miscarry. These go by way of Valparaiso, so that the two packets, one going East & the other West, will circumnavigate the Globe and meet each other, maybe, on your London counter, in due season – I wrote you more fully by way of India so I will only now add [page 8] that it would afford me some considerable degree of pleasure to receive a remittance of profits from sale of African work & also accts. of the sale of sketches left in your hands - Please write me to Adelaide, South Australia, & send me out a copy or two of the Ophir views through Messrs. Bell Baddin & Co 2 Jeffrey Square St. Mary Axe With kind regards I am my dear Sir Yours very truly George French Angas Kind regards to your family & all old friends. [page 9] Sydney Sept. 30th. 1851. My dear Sir, I have the pleasure of introducing to you my Sydney Publishers, Messrs. Woolcott & Clarke who are sending home a view of Sydney to be lithographed under your superintendence, and they request me to give you a few instructions concerning it. It must be executed in the very best style of tinted lithography I think Mr. Needham would do it very well – The sky may be altered according to the judgment of the lithographer. The Coloring must be delicate & judicious - Angas family - letters, 1836-1877 Aa 11 Mitchell Library, State Library of NSW [page 10] The writing for the Plate, (which must be exactly the size of the original drawing) must be as follows – Title - The City & Harbour of Sydney from near Vaucluse – Artist’s name – George French Angas – underneath the title in small neat lettering, as follows – “This view shews the approach to Sydney on entering the Harbour from the Sea – In the distance are the Blue Mts. – to the right of the city is seen the entrance to Parramatta River.

It is a record of the colourful characters and individuals who have contributed so much to the development of our City. This entertaining booklet paints a picture of a community that is proud of its past and positive about its future; a community that welcomes and embraces people whose luck in life has run out and a community that includes many, very successful businesses and individuals. The Historic South West Corner booklet is a project initiated by the South West Community Network. The Network was instigated and is supported by Adelaide City Council. The Council encourages active engagement of local communities in City life and in making decisions about their neighbourhood. A method of accomplishing this is through the development of local projects such as the production of this booklet. The booklet presents a history of the South West Corner of the City that will inspire people to think of this area as an interesting place to live, work and visit. I hope that you will enjoy reading this exciting, factual and humorous account of how the South West community of the past created a great community spirit of the present.

HOW THE BARR SMITH LIBRARY GOT ITS NAME 1980 sees the fiftieth anniversary of the laying of the founda­ tion stone of the Barr Smith Library by Mary Isobel Barr Smith on 29th September 1930. The building was a gift to the University from her husband, Tom Elder Barr Smith, intended as a monument to his father, Robert, who during his lifetime contributed large sums 6f money for the purchase of books. In its early days the income of the University was small and Council allowed only £150 for the purchase of books each year, as it was difficult to provide much more than enough to pay for period­ icals and the cost of binding; nor was money forthcoming from the public. C.W. Holgate's survey of the chief libraries of Australia published in 1886 noted that the Library of the University of 1)1: Adelaide "has but few gifts of value, and in fact very few gifts at , "' .. all". Robert Barr Smith changed this unfortunate situation when in .!;" 1892 he made the first of his donations, which were to amount to - :;.;,~~ £9000, to be expended in the purchase of books for the Library. ~:i}}~ In appreciation of his liberality, the Council resolved in 1899 that ;'1 - the Library should bear the name of its benefactor. Irij~ The example of Robert Barr Smith had a stimulating influence, and has since been followed by a number of gifts and bequests af great value.

  • ANGAS FAMILY PAPERS PRG 175 Series List John Howard Angas
    ___________________________________________________________________________ ANGAS FAMILY PAPERS PRG 175 Series List John Howard Angas (1823-1904) was the second son of George Fife Angas. He arrived in South Australia in September 1843, having been appointed to manage his father's estates in the colony. He settled at Tarrawatta near Angaston where he established a successful pastoral business and built a fine homestead called Collingrove. The purchase of further land and livestock soon made him one of the largest landowners and foremost stud-breeders in the colony. In 1871 he entered Parliament as the member for Barossa later becoming a member of the Legislative Council for the Central District from 1887-94. His social, religious and philanthropic interests were also extensive and influential, and he contributed generously towards the establishment of many colonial institutions, including the University of Adelaide. He left an estate worth some £800,000.1 Susanne Collins Angas, the wife of John Howard Angas, was the daughter of Richard Collins, a corn-factor of Bowden, near Manchester. Her marriage to J.H. Angas took place in England in May 1855. She returned with her husband to live at Collingrove, but ill-health caused them to return to England for some years during which time a son and daughter were born. She died in April 1910, six years after the death of her husband.2 Charles Howard Angas (1861-1928) was the son of J.H. Angas. After being educated at St. Peter's College Adelaide, and in England, he gradually assumed responsibility for his father's vast properties and interests. He too became prominent as a stock-breeder, most notably with Lincoln sheep, while his business interests included chairmanship of the Willowie Land and Pastoral Association and the S.A.

    HERITAGE ASSESSMENT REPORT NAME: Lynedoch Vale Tree PLACE: 26481 ADDRESS: 1311 Barossa Valley Way, near Lyndoch SA 5351 HISTORY Lyndoch Vale Tree, Barossa Valley Way near Lyndoch showing side of tree facing the road. Source: Googlemaps, 2018 Colonel Light’s discovery and subsequent exploration of the area around Lyndoch Vale (1837 & 1839) Colonel William Light explored the area around Lyndoch on three separate occasions and sketched a number of different landscapes. The nominated tree was sketched during his first expedition to the area and the following is a brief description of that journey based on diary entries made by Light each day. On 11 December 1837, Light, Fisher, Jas Fisher, Morphett, Samuel Stephens and others set out from Adelaide to explore the countryside to the north- east of the fledgling city with the aim of identifying a northerly means of communication between Adelaide and the Murray River. After travelling about 18 miles over the plains in a north-north-easterly direction, they made camp on the bank of a river, later identified by Dutton as the Para River. The following morning the party commenced travel again at 6am and journeyed across a boggy flat and up some low hills. By 10:30am they had reached the Mete Watte River (Gawler River), where they lunched until 3pm before following the river for a further 3 miles and establishing camp for the night.1 The party set out again at 6am on 13 December and travelled in a north-easterly direction over ‘high undulating ground’ for approximately 6 miles. They then descended into a little plain where they stopped at 9:30am beside a ‘small river running in a tortuous form from the eastward’ (probably the North Para River).
