I was the first descendant ever to visit my 3xgreat-grandfather's grave, now I'm the first to see him move. Meet William Peacock 1796-1882 from Leek in Staffordshire, England, the stone mason who settled Encounter Bay, veteran of the Australian goldfields, and the first of my male genetic line to come to Australia.
Bowen, Ipswich, Sydney and then he was never seen again... please follow the link on my profile for the story “Mystery of 19th century chemist William Lale.”
Awesome news!! I've made the BIG TIME and am now considered AUSTRALIAN
The Marquess, Lords, Ladies, and Lairds made it the wedding of the century. The Tradies make this an incredible tale. Follow the link on my profile for the story, “Wedding of the century.” Please let my friends at @westbremerradio know what you think of the story told live! Photo by Whitby Photography.
He was the author, chairman of the review committee, and acting governor to sign its Royal Assent, of the first criminal code in Australia which was passed in 1899. He was also the Chief Justice of the Australian High Court interpreting his code for the first time. This was Sir Samuel Griffith. Thank you Michael Halliday, retired Barrister-at Law, Magistrate and Coroner, and The Royal Historical Society of Queensland, for an outstanding lecture on Sir Samuel Griffith and the Writing of the Queensland Criminal Code. The address was delivered in the magnificent convict-built 1824 Commissariat Store in #Brisbane.
It's taken more than a century of pain but justice appears to be on the cusp of being served. Please follow the link on my profile to read the story, “Injustice exposed after 102 years” and let me know what you think.
