SUMMARY:John Marshall and Bounty Migration to Port Phillip
DESCRIPTION:Emeritus Professor Graeme Davison AO\, Chair of the History Council of Victoria\, will launch Dr Liz Rushen’s book\, John Marshall: Shipowner\, Lloyd’s reformer and emigration agent. \nAfter the launch\, Dr Rushen will deliver a paper which explores the significant role John Marshall played in the white settlement of the Port Phillip District. When Port Phillip was first opened up for settlement\, Marshall was Britain’s most active emigration agent: in the three years 1839-1841\, he sent 21 ships containing nearly 5000 bounty migrants to the new settlement. A major shipowner of London\, Marshall instigated reform of Lloyd’s Register of Shipping and established Britain’s first emigration depot at Plymouth\, but today his contributions to the shipowning and merchant worlds of the nineteenth century have been largely forgotten. \nDr Liz Rushen\, well-known to RHSV members\, is a Melbourne-based historian who has written extensively on nineteenth-century migration to Australia. \nDrinks are served in the Gallery Downstairs from 5:15pm\, with the launch / lecture starting at 5:30pm. Books will be available for purchase and signing by the author.  \nPenny Larkins from The Good Girl Song Project will also be performing at the launch.  \nImmigration was as controversial in the nineteenth century as it is today. Australia has a long history of migration and is considered one of the world’s great immigration success stories\, but this process has not been without cost. \nThis book tells the story of the most active emigration agent of the nineteenth-century: John Marshall. His influence can be read in the naming of the town Marshall\, outside Geelong\, Victoria\, and in the lives of the descendants of the thousands of people he assisted to migrate to the British colonies of New Zealand\, Canada and North America\, Cape Town and most importantly\, Australia. Marshall’s work also impacts the world today through Lloyd’s Register of Shipping. \nA brilliant strategist\, Marshall instigated a review of the classification of ships and the merger of the red and green registers used by Lloyd’s shipowners and underwriters\, and later established Britain’s first emigration depot at Plymouth. Enterprise was much-admired in the early to mid-nineteenth century and Marshall was one of the most active entrepreneurs of the period. He was a merchant-adventurer and superb logistician who read the marketplace and was prepared to move to a new start-up each time his finances dictated a fresh start: brokerage\, trade\, shipping\, emigration\, coal. \nMarshall had both the vision and analytical skills to achieve great things\, but he lacked business acumen or the personality to successfully carry through any of his undertakings. This book links the various facets of Marshall’s life from his humble beginnings to his impoverished end. It explains how an unknown insurance broker from the provinces could rise to be a key player in London’s ship owning and merchant world of the early nineteenth century. \n

SUMMARY:Creating a Tramway Titan
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, Melbourne retains the title of having the largest electric street tram system in the world.

Today Gita retains its flagship teacher training course while embracing the digital world offering classes and courses across the airwaves. It has truly forged a place in Victoria’s cultural landscape. \nFay Woodhouse is a professional historian who has written widely on Australian social and political history and is the author of several entries in the Australian Dictionary of Biography and The Encyclopaedia of Melbourne. Her publications include histories of Monash and Melbourne Universities\, the 150-year history of Tahbilk Wines and the 100-year history of d’Arenberg Wines. Biographies include the nineteenth century Scottish stockbreeder and pioneer pastoralist\, Duncan MacGregor and the physician Leslie Latham. She has recently edited the biography of Melbourne’s first surveyor\, Robert Russell and the memoirs of the businessman\, Clive Smith. Fay regularly presents papers at conferences and contributes book chapters and articles to scholarly journals. \n\n\n\nCarolyn Rasmussen is an honorary fellow at the School of Historical and Philosophical Studies\, University of Melbourne. Carolyn does research in Australian political and social history and biography. Her dual biography of progressive politicians and activists Maurice and Doris Blackburn\, The Blackburns: Private Lives\, Public Ambition was published in March 2019 by MUP. She is chair of the Victorian Working Party of the Australian Dictionary of Biography and is currently researching a history of Computer Science and Communication and Information Technology at the University of Melbourne.
