March HISTORY MATTERS

The March Edition of 𝑯𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 is now available at the 𝑇𝑜𝑟𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑦 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠𝑎𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑦 or electronically to our members and digital subscribers. In this edition we celebrate the 30th birthday of the Australian National Surfing Museum and the women leaders of the Shire. Learn who Sir Samuel Mogg was and what it was like working at Dennys Lascelles in the early last century through Margaret Ganly’s eyes and about the Foam shipwreck. Where did the name of the town Buckley come from? There are also our regular cemetery tales and South Barwon councillor stories.
