This year the Annual General Meeting was held at Ross and we were pleased to welcome 43 members and two visitors. Mr Peter Richardson, Senior Librarian from the Northern Regional Library spoke on the organisational changes at Hobart and the bringing together of all resources in one building. Mr John Cameron, manager of the Campbell Town Convict Brick Trail, outlined the project which will commemorate every convict individually, with name, age, date of sentence, crime and the name of the ship engraved onto a brick. Dr Alison Alexander gave a resume of her recent writings and generated animated comments in response to her survey on members' thoughts and attitudes on convicts and their subsequent lives in Tasmania. We look forward to the next AGM, hosted by Hobart Branch, on 20th June 2009— please keep this date free! Muriel, State Secretary.

Tasmanian Ancestry 75 September 2008 President's Report 2007/08 This is my fourth Annual Report for the Society and I feel very honoured to have had the chance to work with a great team of people. I would specially like to express appreciation to our Patron, Dr Alison Alexander for her cheerful willingness to serve for another five year term. Thank you, Alison! When I first became a delegate for the Launceston branch, it was very daunting, and I always seemed to be lost in all the paperwork of reports and notes etc. Meetings started at 10am and often didn't finish until 4pm. Nowadays things have changed, with meetings usually finished by 2pm—this has been achieved partly because we have been able to make greater use of emails for more efficient distribution of correspondence and reports, and a revision of the agenda format. Most importantly is the smooth communication and co-operation between all who attend the meetings. State Projects: Initially we estimated releasing T.A.M.I.O.T. 1 and 2 on CDRom within 12 months, but this has proved to be a bit ambitious—it would seem that it could be another two years before release. We are also looking into the possibility of putting Tasmanian Ancestry, Volumes 1-20 on CDRom. Publications Team: The Publications Team has been kept busy this year, with the release of the Tasmanian Ancestry Index to volumes 21-25, and the release of many branch publications. As Branches are now producing indexes on CDRom, the State Executive and the Publications Committee are in the process of preparing guidelines for electronic media productions—this will give branches some common standards with which to work. Membership: It is encouraging to report that membership numbers are on par with last year, including 145 new members—let's hope that the trend continues. Tasmanian Ancestry: The journal committee would like to thank all those who have sent in articles during the year, and to all those contemplating writing articles for the journal, we look forward to receiving them. TFHS Inc. Award: This year the Executive received 7 nominations: Kathy Bluhm, Werner, Bluhm, Judith De Jong, Coralie Mesecke, Leo Prior, Barrie Robinson and Helen Stuart. Lilian Watson Family History Award: Eight entries were received. The winner was

  • Convict Labour and Colonial Society in the Campbell Town Police District: 1820-1839
    Convict Labour and Colonial Society in the Campbell Town Police District: 1820-1839. Margaret C. Dillon B.A. (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.) University of Tasmania April 2008 I confirm that this thesis is entirely my own work and contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis. Margaret C. Dillon. -ii- This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Margaret C. Dillon -iii- Abstract This thesis examines the lives of the convict workers who constituted the primary work force in the Campbell Town district in Van Diemen’s Land during the assignment period but focuses particularly on the 1830s. Over 1000 assigned men and women, ganged government convicts, convict police and ticket holders became the district’s unfree working class. Although studies have been completed on each of the groups separately, especially female convicts and ganged convicts, no holistic studies have investigated how convicts were integrated into a district as its multi-layered working class and the ways this affected their working and leisure lives and their interactions with their employers. Research has paid particular attention to the Lower Court records for 1835 to extract both quantitative data about the management of different groups of convicts, and also to provide more specific narratives about aspects of their work and leisure.

  • JOURNAL Number Six
    THE JAMES CAIRD SOCIETY JOURNAL Number Six Antarctic Exploration Sir Ernest Shackleton MARCH 2012 1 Shackleton and a friend (Oliver Locker Lampson) in Cromer, c.1910. Image courtesy of Cromer Museum. 2 The James Caird Society Journal – Number Six March 2012 The Centennial season has arrived. Having celebrated Shackleton’s British Antarctic (Nimrod) Expedition, courtesy of the ‘Matrix Shackleton Centenary Expedition’, in 2008/9, we now turn our attention to the events of 1910/12. This was a period when 3 very extraordinary and ambitious men (Amundsen, Scott and Mawson) headed south, to a mixture of acclaim and tragedy. A little later (in 2014) we will be celebrating Sir Ernest’s ‘crowning glory’ –the Centenary of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic (Endurance) Expedition 1914/17. Shackleton failed in his main objective (to be the first to cross from one side of Antarctica to the other). He even failed to commence his land journey from the Weddell Sea coast to Ross Island. However, the rescue of his entire team from the ice and extreme cold (made possible by the remarkable voyage of the James Caird and the first crossing of South Georgia’s interior) was a remarkable feat and is the reason why most of us revere our polar hero and choose to be members of this Society. For all the alleged shenanigans between Scott and Shackleton, it would be a travesty if ‘Number Six’ failed to honour Captain Scott’s remarkable achievements - in particular, the important geographical and scientific work carried out on the Discovery and Terra Nova expeditions (1901-3 and 1910-12 respectively).

  • Negotiating Femininity in Nineteenth-Century Colonial Australia
    "A Woman Doesn't Represent Business Here": Negotiating Femininity in Nineteenth-Century Colonial Australia Eleanor Conlin Casella Attempting to access services in Katherine, a tiny frontier town of Australia's Northern Territory, Mrs. Jeannie Gunn was consistently re/located in her moral feminine role with the firm reminder: "A Woman doesn't represent Business here" (Gunn 1908) Although Mrs. Gunn and "Mine Host" (the Hotel Manager) had their encounter in the farthest frontier of Outback Anglo-Australia, she still had no excuse to transcend morality by entering the masculine arena of business. In fact, the harsh conditions of the colonial frontier created enough threat to Victorian social order, that strict adherence to "the civilizing roles of genteel society" became a self-conscious performance, a means to lessen the ambiguities of bushlife (Sobel 1991). * * * Nineteenth-century Victorian England witnessed the birth of the "Ideal Woman." Developed within the socio-economically elite world of the British upper classes, this role effected gender relations around the world, as the British Empire spread cultural prescriptions throughout its colonies. The Victorian "Ideal Woman" became the template for defining and constructing concepts of "femininity," the blueprint for maintaining gender relations (Strobel 1991; Vicinus 1972). Bounded and carefully prescribed behavior defined the role of this ideal woman. She was essentially of the ruling classes, although less perfect versions of her existed throughout the social hierarchy. The Perfect Lady was high priestess in the infamous Victorian cult of domesticity: Once married, the perfect lady did not work; she had servants. She was mother only at set times of the day, even of the year; she left heirs in the hands of nannies and governesses.

  • Overview of Tasmania's Offshore Islands and Their Role in Nature
    Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 154, 2020 83 OVERVIEW OF TASMANIA’S OFFSHORE ISLANDS AND THEIR ROLE IN NATURE CONSERVATION by Sally L. Bryant and Stephen Harris (with one text-figure, two tables, eight plates and two appendices) Bryant, S.L. & Harris, S. 2020 (9:xii): Overview of Tasmania’s offshore islands and their role in nature conservation.Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania 154: 83–106. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.154.83 ISSN: 0080–4703. Tasmanian Land Conservancy, PO Box 2112, Lower Sandy Bay, Tasmania 7005, Australia (SLB*); Department of Archaeology and Natural History, College of Asia and the Pacific, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 2601 (SH). *Author for correspondence: Email: [email protected] Since the 1970s, knowledge of Tasmania’s offshore islands has expanded greatly due to an increase in systematic and regional surveys, the continuation of several long-term monitoring programs and the improved delivery of pest management and translocation programs. However, many islands remain data-poor especially for invertebrate fauna, and non-vascular flora, and information sources are dispersed across numerous platforms. While more than 90% of Tasmania’s offshore islands are statutory reserves, many are impacted by a range of disturbances, particularly invasive species with no decision-making framework in place to prioritise their management. This paper synthesises the significant contribution offshore islands make to Tasmania’s land-based natural assets and identifies gaps and deficiencies hampering their protection. A continuing focus on detailed gap-filling surveys aided by partnership restoration programs and collaborative national forums must be strengthened if we are to capitalise on the conservation benefits islands provide in the face of rapidly changing environmental conditions and pressure for future use.
