He and wife Beatrice (1885?-1978) moved into Villa Maria in 1920 and developed a fine garden. In 1929 they moved to a new house, Santos, at 11 Yosefa Ave. “Mr Aley, the architect, and incidentally the owner, has planned both house and garden with the utmost care, so that each should combine to make a delightful whole. The irregular shape and sloping nature of the ground presented many difficulties, but at the same time abounded with possibilities, of which he has taken full advantage. The most important thing, in a house of this sort, and indeed in any house, is aspect, and here it is just right.

  • SL MAGAZINE Autumn 2018 State Library of New South Wales NEWS
    –Magazine for members Autumn 2018 Message I am writing this on a rainy Monday looking out to Macquarie Street. Libraries like wet weather because it encourages more people to seek them out. Many years ago I had a colleague who argued that great developments in human thought could be tracked alongside the climate. People from the very coldest places tend to focus on survival and keeping warm, but as you go further north (or south, depending on your orientation), temperate surroundings encourage tempered thought. When it gets too hot, once again you tend to focus on survival and keeping cool. If you seek us out in our own (always temperate) zone, you will find some of our latest acquisitions and developments. Improvements to our website and catalogue should make this easier. For example, have a look at the DX Lab’s brilliant online commentary on Dr David Mabberley’s book on botanical artist Ferdinand Bauer, the addition of a major Pix magazine archive to Trove, and the further development of Amplify (our crowdsourced oral history transcription tool). New arrivals include a manuscript account of two voyages between 1902 and 1904 by the National Antarctic Relief Ship SY Morning, another manuscript account of life on the mid-nineteenth century NSW goldfields by George Lacy containing important evidence about the Wiradjuri people, a first edition of TS Eliot’s The Waste Land, and a collection of photographs by Louise Whelan of historic signage in Sydney’s CBD. Keep an eye on our educational programs — many are available to young people throughout the state through videoconferencing — and look up the Joseph Banks archive now on our website, and the work of our Fellows.
