  • Old Images of Albury Gallery”
    Notes: “Old Images of Albury Gallery” Image 01: The November 1824 crossing place of the Murray River by the Hume and Hovell expedition in a photograph taken in December 1919 as surveyors prepared for the Hume Dam construction. After reaching the future site of Albury, several of the party moved seven miles downstream looking for a place to cross but not finding a satisfactory place, they returned. They then explored nine miles upstream reaching a rocky islet that the natives called “Thurgoona.” Four miles further east they had passed the point where the Mitta River enters and found that the river was now just 40 yards across. They had gone east just 6 miles from where they first met the river, but 13 miles following the winding course of the river. The next day the party crossed the river after Thomas Boyd swam across with a rope and then towed their possessions across in a sapling framework covered with tarpaulins. The site chosen is now under the water at Lake Hume below what is now Hume Weir Village. Image 02: The paddlesteamer “Albury” was built in the shipyard of Robert Napier & Sons on the River Clyde in Scotland. It was shipped out in sections on the brig “Lady Emma” to Port Elliot, South Australia, arriving on January 17, 1855. From there it was taken to Goolwa South Australia and erected by Francis Cadell. On October 2, 1855, the “Albury” was the first steamer to reach Albury. The Argus (Melbourne) reported on October 10, 1855: The Murray River Navigation Company’s steamer “Albury,” Captain Johnston (Cadell’s line), arrived at Albury on the 2nd inst, to the great delight of the inhabitants of that thriving district.

  • Albury & District Timeline
    ALBURY & DISTRICT TIMELINE Please advise any corrections or omissions to [email protected] This timeline is to reflect more recent interpretations of history. Pre- Pre-European settlement: Indigenous people occupied this part of the Murray Valley for 1824 tens of thousands of years. By the 1820s those in the Albury district spoke a Wiradjuri language, though may have recently displaced a group known as the Jeihi. Different language groups occupied areas south of the Murray. Most people would have spoken more than one language. The Wiradjuri, the largest nation in NSW, occupied a large west of the Great Dividing Range. In 1824, Wiradjuri warriors, led by Windradyne, fought a war against the British in the Bathers district, ending in an extermination campaign that massacred indigenous men, women and children. Weeks later, and against this background, Hume and Hovell led an expedition through Wiradjuri country from Yass to Albury, but encountered no hostility from the Wiradjuri. Historians believe that in the 1840s Aboriginal groups in the Albury-Wodonga region were still numerous. In later decades, many died as a consequence of settler violence, being pushed off their lands and contracting diseases brought by the Europeans. Aboriginal occupation of the district began as early as 40,000 years ago – it was Wiradjuri Ngurambanggu country, an area known as Bungambrawatha; the Murray River was known as Milawa Billa; the meeting ground east of Albury known as Mungabareena; and Dight’s Hill to the west of Albury known as Jingera. A large rock, has been placed at Mungabareena inscribed, ‘Gawaimbanna-Gu Wiradjuri Nguranban’ – ‘Welcome to Wiradjuri Country.’ Official unveiling ceremony November 19, 1994 by Mayor Jim Paterson and Pastor Cec Grant Wiradjuri elder.
