DATE: 1900 – 1915.Limerick lace – By the Poor For the Rich: Lace in Context Blonde Limerick lace refers to a specific style of Limerick lace—an Irish embroidered net—that adopts the aesthetic of 18th/19th-century French "blonde" lace, often featuring fine silk or cream-colored thread on a net base. It is a mixed lace, combining tambour or needle-run embroidery on a machine-made net. Characteristics and Context: Definition: Limerick lace is a "mixed" lace created by decorating machine-made net with hand embroidery, specifically tambour work (using a hook) or needle-run work. "Blonde" Aspect: Traditionally, blonde lace was a French silk lace known for its natural cream/pale gold color. When applied to Limerick lace, this refers to the use of fine cream or écru threads to create intricate patterns. Types of Limerick Lace: Tambour: A hook is used to create chain stitches. Needle-run: Embroidery is applied using a needle. Design and History: Patterns often feature floral, foliate, and nature-inspired motifs, such as shamrocks, ferns, or butterflies. While the industry began in 1829, styles evolved to include varied fillings. Production: The Limerick Lace School has produced modern interpretations, including stoles and veils featuring this technique.Cream net with an all over design in cream floss silk embroidery in a bold floral design. 5 cm silk fringe.

Catherine Waite married Hugh Hyndman in Albury in 1929 at the age of 23 years. She was a great granddaughter of John Waite and Mary Ann Robinson who settled in “Bungil” and became pioneers of the Upper Murray region of Victoria. John Waite was born in 1771 at Gravesend, Kent, England. He arrived in Sydney on 7th May 1804 from Sevenoaks, Kent, England on the convict ship "Coromandel" having been convicted of stealing two sheep. He was assigned to Dr Charles Throsby, surgeon, land holder and inland explorer. John Waite was granted an absolute pardon in 1818. John married Mary Robinson on 14th April 1812 at Windsor, NSW. Mary was the daughter of a member of the NSW Corps and an emancipated convict. John and Mary went on to have 14 children. The family of John Waite formed strong connections with the Hore family which also became prominent in the Upper Murray, Albury and Wodonga. John Hore (Hoare) Snr. of Wexford County, Ireland, was a volunteer in the English Navy for four years before being sentenced to death for mutiny. On appeal this was commuted to seven years’ transportation to Australia. In Australia several marriages occurred between the two families. After the journey of Hume and Hovell to Victoria, John Waite and the Hore family sought pastoral land further south. John Hore Jnr and his brothers Andrew, William, Thomas and Charles all settled in the Upper Murray. John and Elizabeth's son John Hore Jnr married Elizabeth Waite, a daughter of John and Mary Waite. This forged a family connection that would have an influence on the Upper Murray for generations to come. John Waite formed the Bungil run for his son-in-law John Hore, acquiring land through the Robertson Land Act of 1861 which enabled land owners to use relatives as "dummies" to help acquire land. When the “dummy” defaulted on the rent John Hore and other landowners were able to buy the land at reduced prices at auction. In this way the Hore family and their relatives established a large pastoral empire in the Upper Murray, including Bungil, Wagra and Cumberoona. Catherine Waite was born in Albury, NSW in 1905, great granddaughter of John Waite Snr and Mary Robinson. In 1929 she married Hugh Hyndman who before migrating to Australia from Northern Ireland had worked on the construction of the Titanic at the dockyards in Belfast. This dress is significant because it was worn by a descendant of two important pioneer families of the Upper Murray Region of Victoria.A wedding dress from the late 1920s made from peach coloured silk and lace. The bodice and sleeves feature a lace overlay which is repeated from hip length. It is matched with cloche style hat made from matching lace and decorated with ribbon, flowers and a bow.1920s wedding dress, waite family, hore family
