Yohann was a miner and died in the All Nations Mine collapse at Derwnt Jack's in 1877. Interesting to note in the following information that the Hanlon Consol mamager, William Maughan was also the manager of the Try Again Mine in Piggoreet. He was also on the six man school committee of Piggoreet Common School No. 726. (Is this why George Yung ended up working in Rokewood because of a previous connection at Piggoreet? George married Clara Emma Smith from Happy Valley and worked in a mine at Allendale. They later moved to Yendon) About the Hanlon gold mining company near Rokewood. 1901 - Information Bendigo Prospecting Club, 21/08/2020. Information provided once again by Peter McCarthy. Christopher Hanlon had put down a line of bores south of the Rokewood main street, looking for a continuation of the Break O’Day lead which had been worked for two or three miles with highly payable results, though in a primitive manner. Ground was being paddocked 30 feet deep and made to pay. The bores suggested the sinking would be about 70 feet and a shaft site was selected at the back of Stanbrook’s Hotel. The Hanlon Gold Mining Company was formed in March 1895 and the shaft was bottomed at 68 feet, getting just over an ounce of gold from the shaft bottom. By January 1896, the poppet heads were up, and steam plant was nearly ready. The mine produced 846 oz by September, which was not as good as expected, but they installed a second puddling machine. The mine was profitable for the next three years, with periods of prospecting and the need to install steam pumps in 1897. A second shaft was sunk in 1899, which bottomed at 86 feet on good wash and was sunk on to 109 feet. 1743 oz of gold had been produced in six months to September 1899, but the No1 shaft was let on tribute as the No2 workings were opened and machinery installed the following year. The No1 shaft tributors broke even in 1900 and in 1901 the shaft was shut down, with the No1 shaft machinery sold late in 1902. By September 1901, the mine had produced gold worth £66,124 and the No2 shaft main drive was in 346 feet, with gold being found mainly in crevices in the hard floor. Mining continued, but once the No2 shaft workings met up with the old No1 shaft workings at the end of 1902 there was not much wash remaining. The mine was let on tribute in June 1903 and a drive was put in to test deeper ground. The company was wound up in February 1904 and the plant sold. From what they discovered, the manager concluded that the mine sat at the edge of an ancient coastline and the gold was in a beach deposit. The total gold production from the mine was worth £73,294. J Lee Archer JP, shareholder, was the manager of the Bank of Victoria in Ballarat. Born in Tasmania, he came to Victoria with his parents and first came to Ballarat in 1855 as a junior clerk with the bank. He died in 1902 aged 64. Alexander J. Peacock was a legal manager and a share broker. In 1897 Peacock, born in Creswick, had been elected as one of the Victorian delegates to the Constitutional Convention which wrote the Australian Constitution. He later became a politician, state treasurer and three times state premier of Victoria and was knighted KCGM. He died in 1933 aged 72. William Maughan, director, was an English miner who came to Victoria in the 1850s and became a mine manager, managing the Try Again at Piggoreet, Ryan’s Freehold and the Madam Berry, among others. He died in Williamstown in 1915 aged 85. Sepia photographRhs front of photo: R.

In the beginning, they met at the house of their founder, Mrs Eric Thake, 48 Harp Road, East Kew, but the growth and interest was so rapid that it was soon necessary to find a larger meeting place, so the group moved to the Harrier’s Pavilion in Victoria Park, Kew. At the fifth meeting of the group, a committee was formed, and a constitution adopted on 4 December 1945.The Club was aimed to be non-political, non-sectarian and open to women from any locality. The Club’s motto was “To Help others, Improve Ourselves, and Foster the Community Spirit”. The first twenty years of the Club was recorded in a small, nine-page publication “East Kew Women’s Club : Twenty Years 20-7-1945 - 30-7-1965”. Following the closure of the Club in 1973, after twenty-eight years, its records were deposited with the Kew Historical Society and are thus available for research into the history of women’s groups in the post war period in Australia. The Society holds the Club’s Minute Books of Meetings (1953-73), Attendance Registers (1959-73), Visitors Book, and sundry items of print ephemera published by the Club.1-page typed Constitution of the East Kew Women's Clubeast kew women's club, community groups, women's groups -

Lot 82 Plan of Subdivision 9473, Part of Crown Allotment 18, Parish of Ringwood, Certificate of Title Volume 6739, Folio 1347671.AI Summary using CoPilot (5/9/2026): The documents relate to the 1946 sale of Lot 82, Plan of Subdivision 9473, part of Crown Allotment 18 in the Parish of Ringwood, owned by William Bradbury and purchased by Mrs Sylvia Ellis Tunks for £40. The sale was handled by C.E. Carter, estate agent of Ringwood. A formal Contract of Sale is included, prepared under the Real Estate & Stock Institute of Victoria’s 1946 copyright conditions. It records the property description, the price of £40, and a £5 deposit, with the balance payable within 14 days of receiving government consent—a requirement under wartime National Security (Land Transfer) and Economic Organisation Regulations. The contract is signed by both Bradbury and Tunks, witnessed, and includes standard conditions about payment, possession, obligations, and government approvals. Earlier, on 10 July 1946, Carter issued a preliminary receipt acknowledging a £3 preliminary deposit from Mrs Tunks, subject to the owner’s approval, and confirming her intention to sign a formal contract under the Transfer of Land Act conditions. On 17 March 1946, prior to the formal contract, a letter from C. Bradbury (writing on behalf of William Bradbury) thanks the agent for arranging the sale and asks whether the transfer could be completed by mail or whether a Saturday meeting would suit the purchaser. On 23 July 1946, Carter wrote to Bradbury enclosing the contract in triplicate and Form 5 for signature, requesting their prompt return. On 1 August 1946, Carter forwarded the signed contract and Forms 5 and 7 to the Delegate of the Treasurer, Land Sales Control, seeking the required Commonwealth consent. He noted that the land had previously been valued at £40 earlier in the year, so another valuation should not be needed. On 17 August 1946, Carter wrote to Mrs Tunks advising that the Treasurer’s Delegate had granted consent to the sale, enclosing her copy of the contract. Later, on 3 September 1946, Bradbury wrote to the agent asking whether the sale had been completed and whether the £10 deposit refund (likely referring to an earlier payment or adjustment) had been overlooked, as some time had passed since signing. On 9 November 1946, Carter sent the stamped contract bearing the Treasurer’s consent to Mr M. Niall & Co., solicitors, completing the administrative process. -

The contract, prepared by C.E. Carter, set the price at £90, with a £5 deposit and the balance payable within 14 days of receiving Commonwealth Treasury consent, which was required under wartime National Security regulations. The contract followed the 1946 Real Estate Institute conditions and included the usual clauses about title, easements, tax adjustments, and government approval. Attached is also a 1923 contract showing that the same land had previously been sold to Lena (Eleanor) F. Bell Chambers for £90 under instalment terms through agents Keogh & King, with detailed conditions about fencing, quarrying restrictions, instalments, and plan registration. The 1946 correspondence shows the administrative steps for the new sale: Godfrey Stewart & Co., solicitors for Sutherland, returned the executed contracts and requested the vendor’s signature, valuation certificate, and Form 5 for Treasury consent. They also noted a discrepancy in the spelling of Bellchambers’ Christian names on the title versus the contract and asked whether she wished them to act for her. Carter forwarded the required forms and confirmed that Mr Bellchambers had no solicitor. Shortly afterwards, both Mr and Mrs Bellchambers instructed Stewart & Co. to act for them and confirmed that their names should match the title. The final document is Carter’s account sales statement to Mrs Bellchambers, showing the £5 deposit, the purchaser’s cheque for £81 8s, Carter’s commission of £4 10s, a valuation fee of £1 1s, and a net amount of £80 17s 8d remitted to her. -

A valuation fee of £2/2/- was charged for the required government valuation, with the valuer’s fee shared between vendor and purchaser.

It set out the property description, the price, the deposit, and the condition that the balance of the purchase money would be paid within 14 days of receiving required government consent, which was mandatory under wartime National Security Regulations. The contract was signed in triplicate by the vendor but later marked “Cancelled.” Included with the contract was the National Security (Economic Organisation) Regulations – Form 7, completed by the purchaser, Jane Franzke. In this form she stated that she wished to buy the land to build a home, confirmed that the land was vacant, and declared that she and her husband owned other property. She also confirmed that no related or contingent transactions existed and that the purchase price involved no furniture, livestock, plant, or fittings. She signed the statutory declaration on 16 August 1947. Alongside these documents was a letter dated 29 August 1947 from C.E. Carter & Son to Mrs. Franzke. The agent enclosed a cheque for the £5 deposit, stating it was being returned “as arranged,” and asked her to return the original receipt. This letter indicates that the sale did not proceed, consistent with the contract copies being marked “Cancelled.” Overall, the documents show that a 1947 land sale was initiated, formally documented, submitted for government approval, and then abandoned, with the deposit refunded to the purchaser."
