SUMMARY:What Ship Did You Come Out On?
DESCRIPTION:Discover the history of ships in Port Melbourne with local author Nick Cree.          \nNick Cree will be speaking about the ships that came through Port Melbourne in the 50’s and 60’s\, and the myriad of personal stories of the people who embarked in Melbourne. Do you have a personal association with one of those ships?  \nThis event is part of the exhibition Remarkable: stories of Australians and their boats. \nAustralia’s history is full of maritime-related stories. With over 1\,000 rivers and a coast that stretches for more than 36\,000 kilometres\, it is no surprise that Australia abounds with stories of people who have lived and worked on the water.

SUMMARY:No Ordinary Convict
DESCRIPTION:It is Family History Month at Yarra Plenty Regional Library. or much of her life\, Janine Marshall Wood\, a former English\, History and French teacher\, has been gripped by the remarkable story of John Hughes\, his leadership in the Rebecca Riots\, his convict years and life afterwards in Tasmania. She has retold this tale countless times to audiences of all ages throughout Australia – sometimes even in French. \nThe Rebecca Riots (1839–1844)\, a protest movement that galvanised and amused much of the Western world\, was known for its audaciousness and humour. Their aim was to alleviate the hardship of unfair tollgate charges in rural Wales. One of its leaders (or Rebeccas) was John Hughes (Jac Ty-isha)\, who is the subject of Janine’s recent book “No ordinary convict: a Welshman called Rebecca”. \n“No Ordinary Convict: a Welshman called Rebecca” addresses the context from which this extraordinary movement arose and then traces John Hughes’ background\, arrest\, trial\, petitions for freedom and voyage to Van Diemen’s Land. Simultaneously\, and throughout the entire book\, there are comparisons and contrasts between other Rebeccaites and the entire convict population. \nCopies of “No ordinary convict: a Welshman called Rebecca” will be available for sale. \nImage: Painting by John Wynne Hopkins\, 2021 \nEltham Library\, Panther Place\, Eltham\, Vic.
