photograph, Desmond, home of O'Hara family
"Desmond", on the Cockatoo Creek, on land which now forms part of Alma Treloar Reserve, was the home of the O'Hara family ca. 1910. The poet John Bernard O'Hara, used to visit his mother there, and remembered many wonderful holidays with the "city folk" who travelled to Cockatoo on "Puffing Billy" and camped along the creek. The family in the foreground is most likely the O'Hara family.The photograph is significant because it shows a Cockatoo home of around 1910.Black and white photograph of "Desmond", home of the O'Hara family, with a family group in foreground.

Kew Historical Society Inc
Plan - Subdivision Plan, High Street, Kew, 1920-1935
Pru Sanderson, in her groundbreaking ‘City of Kew Urban Conservation Study : Volume 2 - Development History’ (1988), summarised the periods of urban development and subdivisions of land in Kew. The periods that she identified included 1845-1880, 1880-1893, 1893-1921, 1921-1933, 1933-1943, and Post-War Development. These periods were selected as they represented periods of rapid growth or decline in urban development. An obvious starting point for Sanderson’s groupings involved population growth and the associated economic cycles. These cycles also highlighted urban expansion onto land that was predominantly rural, although in other cases it represented the decline and breakup of large estates. A number of the plans in the Kew Historical Society’s collection can also be found in other collections, such as those of the State Library of Victoria and the Boroondara Library Service. A number are however unique to the collection.The Kew Historical Society collection includes almost 100 subdivision plans pertaining to suburbs of the City of Melbourne. Most of these are of Kew, Kew East or Studley Park, although a smaller number are plans of Camberwell, Deepdene, Balwyn and Hawthorn. It is believed that the majority of the plans were gifted to the Society by persons connected with the real estate firm - J. R. Mathers and McMillan, 136 Cotham Road, Kew. The Plans in the collection are rarely in pristine form, being working plans on which the agent would write notes and record lots sold and the prices of these. The subdivision plans are historically significant examples of the growth of urban Melbourne from the beginning of the 20th Century up until the 1980s. A number of the plans are double-sided and often include a photograph on the reverse. A number of the latter are by noted photographers such as J.E. Barnes.A roughly drawn and faded actual or projected subdivision of a parcel of land bordering on High and Mary Streets. The plan shows five allotments facing High Street and at their rear, another allotment facing Mary Street. In 1906, when the Board of Works surveyors completed Detail Plan 1589, the allotment in Mary Street is shown to include a building. The section of land attached to this building is shown to be undeveloped, thus making a further subdivision possible.subdivision plans - kew, high street -- kew (vic.), mary street -- kew (vic.) -

Map - Maps, Soldiers Settlement WW2, Circa 1950
The soldiers' settlement scheme operated after the first and second world wars in an effort to more closely settle the land and also give opportunities to returned soldiers. Crown land and other larger estates were acquired for the purpose. Most of these maps relate to the area north of Warrnambool where many of the subdivisions were parts of larger estates.These maps pertaining to the Soldiers' Settlement program, relate to an interesting part of Australian and local history. As such they have historic and social interest and significance.A collection of 25 paper maps which relate to to the soldiers settlement post World War 2. Some have details of the people allocated the land and some smaller maps have the printed details of the applicants requirements.Text is black on white paper which in some cases is quite aged. The maps are as follows: .1 Narrapumelap Estate ( Ripon & Hampden) .2 Narrapumelap Estate Part 2 (Villers & Ripon) .3 Narrapumelap Estate Part 3 ( Villiers & Ripon) .4 Burrumbeet Estate ( Ripon) .5 ' Berrambool' Estate 9 Hampden & Villiers) .6 ' Hopkins Hill' Estate Villiers 4011 acres .7 Caramut North No 2 Estate ( Villiers ) .8 ' Morpor' Estate ( Villiers) 4172 acres .9 ' Morgiana' Estate ( Normandy) 3453 acres .10 ' Chatsworth House' ( Villiers) 9341 Acres .11 ' East Elwood' Estate Villiers 2407 acres .12 Grey's Estate ( Mornington) 1151acres .13 ' Rowes Estate' ( Buln Buln Gippsland 733 acres .14 'Tarrone' Estate No 2 Part map .15 'Chaldon Meade' Estate (Bourke) Bulla 517 acres .16 ' Terranallum South' Estate Hampden 3757 acres .17 ' Brung Brungle' Estate Dundas 695 .18 ' Armidale ' Estate ( Dundas)2108 acres .19 ' Moyne Falls' Estate ( Villiers) 627 acres .20' Yulong' Estate 9 Lowan 6321 acres .21 Murray Valley Irrigation District 9 Moira)113 acres .22 Murray Valley Irrigation District 103 acres .23 ' Mount Fyans' Estate ( Hampden) .24 ' Barwidgee ' Estate ( Villiers) 4277 acres .25 'Pine Hills' Estate 2nd portion ( Lowan) 6190 acres narrapumelap, berrambool, hopkins hill, caramut north, morpor, chatsworth house, east elwood, terrinallum, moyne falls, tarrone, caramut soldiers settlers, burrumbeet, morgiana, grey's estate mornington, chaldon meade, brung brungle -
