Personal Notes:

Georeg Main e-mail 3 Feb 2014
Regarding my research project mentioned in our email correspondence below, I’m helping to organise a small event associated with the history of the Narrandera district, and I’m hoping you’d be able to distribute an invitation to all Jenkins family descendants with links to Buckingbong? I’ve copied this email to addresses I’ve found online, which hopefully will reach other family members.

In April this year, a small group of people will be walking for two days from Buckingbong camping reserve on the Murrumbidgee River to ‘North Taylors’ paddock, visiting significant places along the way. The walk will acknowledge local history, honour the capacities of land and people to produce food and fibre, and help build cultural and ecological resilience. Each night, four artists will present artworks, performance and installations made especially for each campsite. The project ends with a performance by acclaimed Australian singer songwriter Neil Murray. Partners include The Cad Factory (an innovative arts organisation located in the Narrandera district), Tirkandi Inaburra Cultural and Development Centre (see http://www.tirkandi.org.au/), National Museum of Australia, Wiradjuri Condobolin Corporation, Narrandera High School and visiting and local artists.

As you probably know, a well-documented component of the history of the Narrandera district is the intense conflict that occurred in the late 1830s and early 1840 between squatters and the local Wiradjuri people. In his book Narrandera Shire, historian Bill Gammage explains how this conflict culminated in a massacre of Wiradjuri people on Buckingbong, now recorded in the official name ‘Massacre Island’, an island on the Murrumbidgee River, between Buckingbong homestead and Narrandera town.

This public tree has about 60,100 people. Every person in the tree is related by birth or marriage to at least one other person in the tree - no strays. The people in the tree come mainly from four projects.

My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000
Canberra and Queanbeyan Pioneers. The next 30,000 begun about 2004. Sourced almost entirely from HAGSOC's excellent 'Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan'. The project began when I decided to add siblings, spouses and parents for a relation with an entry in the Register. 12 years work.
Wagga Pioneers. I moved to Wagga and thought I would extend the Queanbeyan project by adding people from Wagga Wagga & District Family History Society's 'Pioneers of Wagga Wagga and District'. About 10,300 people added over about a year.
Tumut Valley Pioneers. During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, I decided to extend the above projects by adding pioneers of the Tumut Valley. Initial sources were Snowden's 'Pioneers of the Tumut Valley' and 'Relict of ... Lives of Pioneering Women of Tumut and District'. Excellent references published by Tumut Family History Group. I've also added material from newspapers of the time - especially, death records, obituaries and weddings from 'Tumut and Adelong Times'. This project is in its early stage and might take a few years. I plan to extend to the upper Monaro (Adaminaby, Kiandra, Cooma, Jindabyne).

I upload new information to this website about every 3 months. My motivation for these projects is to provide public information for people seeking to trace ancestors and what became of them. Much of the information I provide can be difficult to find.
If you find errors - anything incorrect (dates, places, wrong parents, wrong children), and you have evidence, I would love to fix them. Or, if you have information that would extend my projects, do not hestiate to contact me on the email link below. I do not publish information on living people - which means I'm not much interested in people born after about 1920, and I usually distrust material from before about 1770 without extremely good sources.
