INDEX TO MARRICKVILLE HERITAGE SOCIETY INC NEWSLETTER ISSN 0818-0695 Vol 1 No 1 June 1984 To Vol 25 No 10 June 2009 Compiled by Robert Thompson The first issue of Marrickville Heritage Society’s Newsletter appeared in June 1984, just a short time after the formation of the Society. That first issue boldly declared itself to be vol 1 no 1. That we are now able to present an index to Volumes 1 to 25 is due to the determination and skill of each of the editors and contributors who have continued to produce a publication of such high quality. An early decision taken by members of the Society was that it should be an active organisation, rather than a remote one where members would simply pay their subscriptions and leave all the work to a committee. Because of its superb program of activities it has become a true ‘society’. The resulting comradeship has seen members working together to preserve not only the built environment of Marrickville but, perhaps more importantly, our social history as well. The story of Marrickville’s people is a vibrant, ongoing one in which each of us continues to play a part. And while members’ research will uncover and document more of our past, the initiatives and activities of Marrickville Heritage Society will ensure its relevance to a wider society, encouraging the protection of our heritage into the future. The Newsletter records each of our excursions and the speakers – from within and outside the Society – who have entertained and informed us; the fascinating, the horrifying and the sometimes bizarre in Marrickville’s unique story. It documents the awarding of the coveted Marrickville Medal and the achievements of the ever-vigilant Heritage Watch Committee. Indeed, much of what is published in the Newsletter will appear nowhere else, so an index to its contents is vital. The first index to the Newsletter covered the period from June 1984 to June 1996 and was supplemented by two further parts, for the periods July 1996 to June 2000 and July 2000 to June 2004, respectively. These are now incorporated into a revised and expanded index covering the first 25 years of the life of the Society. In addition, the names of new members – more than 1200 entries – have been recorded, according to when their name appeared in occasional lists of new members in the Newsletter, having joined MHS shortly before that month. Inevitably, because the index has been compiled over some 16 years, inconsistencies have crept in. I have quoted the subject entries from the text of each edition of the Newsletter, except for those with an ongoing coverage, whose entries are grouped under one title, or at least appear in a block. Spelling of surnames has, where possible, been standardised. I congratulate the Society on its 25th anniversary and hope that it continues to thrive as new generations take up its work.
