Rob Upson became a volunteer at the Bendigo Visitor Centre in 1998. The Staff produced a monthly newsletter called ‘The Grapevine’. Being reasonably new to Bendigo, Rob became interested in its history and began writing articles to share with the volunteers. He called them ‘Grapevine Cuttings’ under the pen name of ‘Merlot’. Rob wrote about 90 articles over a period of 12 years until ‘The Grapevine’ was finally pruned and shutdown.

The four allotments along the eastern side of Mitchell Street from Pall Mall to Hargreaves Street, were all first transferred from the Crown on the 21st and 22nd. of April 1854 ( Parish Plan, Section 1C, allotment 15 - now known as 19 - 21 Mitchell Street, Bendigo. The surrounding properties along Mitchell Street were transferred from the Crown to J. Pike (to corner with Pall Mall) and Henry Backhaus ( corner of Mitchell Street and Hargreaves Street, also on the 21st and 22nd. April 1854). At this time, the section of Mitchell Street and Pall Mall, which later came to be known as 'Pikes Corner' was considered a 'semi-swamp, for the ground had all been turned up by the diggers, being the foot of Pennyweight Gully, just where it joined the Bendigo Creek and there was more water than land to be seen of it.....I think the three allotments cost him less than 100 pounds each' (Bendigo Advertiser, 9th November, 1889, page 6, letter 'Pikes Corner'). Nine page photocopy of typed document prepared by the City of Greater Bendigo on the history of the allotments 19 - 21 Mitchell Street, Bendigo.

George Henry Backhaus (1811-1882) was born in Prussia. He was ordained as a Catholic priest in 1836 and began his missionary work in India. In 1846 he came to Australia, first ministering in Sydney and then Adelaide. With the discovery of gold in Victoria, Backhaus believed he was called to become a missionary on the goldfields. His first Bendigo mass was celebrated 2/5/1852. He travelled extensively throughout the goldfields eventually establishing a tent church on the site of St Killians in 1852. In 1853 this was replaced by a slab-walled and canvas-roofed church.. The site also included a Catholic school. In 1863 he returned to Germany but came back to Bendigo in 1867. He retired from parish work in 1881 and moved to Melbourne but as his health declined he returned to Bendigo in 1882 to die.The age from 08/01/1966.
