  • Death of Johnny and His Burial on the Foreshore at Mccrae
    10. Death of Johnny and his burial on the foreshore at McCrae Johnny’s death and burial occurred in a later and different era, the gold rush period, 11 years after the Protectorate moved from the Mornington Peninsula. I came upon the location of his grave when seeking information from George Gordon McCrae’s journal about George Smith. Then George Smith turned out to be the earliest legal licence holder of the foreshore where Johnny was buried. I was struck with the intimacy, the connectedness of these people, black and white, in those far-off days: here are the same people, Bogy Bogy/Pereuk and George Smith, first met with in the Protectorate era. And when I went down to the lighthouse precinct to estimate what George Gordon McCrae might have meant by ‘a little to the south of the present lighthouse’, it seemed obvious that Johnny was buried either beneath a public car park or possibly beneath Point Nepean Road. We must walk unknowingly over Aboriginal graves on the Mornington Peninsula, but it is quite a different matter to park vehicles and trailers on a grave once we know it is there. This chapter brings together all the information gathered about Johnny’s death and the location of his grave site. Aboriginal Affairs Victoria will act on the matter. The most well-known account of Johnnie’s death comes to us from the journal of Georgiana McCrae: it survived almost by accident, being included in a portion of Georgiana’s diary ‘Scrip scrap’ which had become separated from the rest of her journals and was found damaged and disordered in her desk:1 it is a brief and moving account.

    PORT PHILLIP RISING sea level rise walk Port Phillip Bay November 21 – 27, 2009 http://www.portphilliprising.org/ Port Phillip Rising – November 2009 - 1 of 21 CONTENTS the walk page 2 sea level rise page 4 walk diary page 6 media on the walk page 17 recommendations page 21 links page 21 Port Phillip Rising part 2 page 21 [produced December 2009] why the walk? The sea is rising at an increasing rate because of climate change. Scientists are predicting that seas globally will rise by more than a metre in the near future and possibly much more than that by the end of this century. For example, melting of the Greenland ice sheet is accelerating; it contains the equivalent amount of water of about 7 metres of sea-level rise. Without immediate action to greatly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, millions of people around the world will be displaced, many thousands of communities will be lost, and the map of the continents as we know it will be changed. While polling tells us that the majority of people want our governments to take action on climate change, this is not yet happening at the scale that is required. As part of our efforts to mobilise a broad cross section of the community, Friends of the Earth (FoE) has engaged in a number of new projects in 2009. The Port Phillip Rising walk was one of these. In November 2009, a small group walked the eastern side of Port Phillip Bay, to highlight the impacts of sea level rise on people, communities and landscapes along the way.
