SUMMARY:Launch of Our New Houses Journal
DESCRIPTION:The new Houses journal covers\, in detail\, twelve houses and their occupants\, with copious illustrations. It is a follow up to our 2018 publication\, Houses of the Ashfield District. The preparation of this publication was supported by an Inner West Council grant.  \n\n\n\nMembers will be able to collect their copy of the new Houses journal at this event. \n\n\n\nTo launch this Journal\, Society Member Dennis McManus PSM will speak on heritage in the Southern Highlands \n\n\n\nHeritage in the Southern Highlands\n\n\n\nThis illustrated talk provides a background to a recent 2021-2023  Wingecarribee Shire Community Heritage Study. The illustrations will confirm that\, like Ashfield\, the heritage of the Shire is no accident. It is the result of people who had both the ideas and resources to employ competent and sometimes renowned local and Sydney based architects\, builders and others to make their dream a reality. Like Ashfield\, the work of local historians has been of major assistance to the Shire Council in providing the best possible advice to ensure informed heritage management. \n\n\n\nDennis is an Hon. Heritage Consultant and Retired Senior Officerof the NSW Heritage Council. He was awarded a Public Service Medal in 1997 for services to Heritage Conservation in NSW.  Dennis wrote a 21 page article on Victoria Square\,  Ashfield and his home\, Portland House\,  for the 2018 Houses of the Ashfield District. \n\n\n\nRefreshments provided. \n\n\n\nRegistration Required. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue: Summer Hill Community Centre\, 131 Smith Street\, Summer Hill

SUMMARY:Book Launch: Ann O'Connell's 'John Jasper Stone'\,(1848-1921): Engineer\, Architect and Baptist
DESCRIPTION:This project is supported by Create NSW’s Grant Program administered by the Royal Australian Historical Society on behalf of the NSW Government.\n\n\n\nJohn Jasper Stone was born in Shoreditch\, a poor part of London and at age seven\, arrived in Australia in 1855 with his parents\, settling in crowded Surry Hills. As a lad\, he joined the Public Works Department in Sydney and trained as a draughtsman\, later becoming a civil engineer. In 1888 Stone branched out on his own as a Consulting Engineer\, Patent Attorney and Architect and over his working life was involved in many projects across New South Wales. \n\n\n\nAnn O’Connell has researched and written a book about Stone\, with information and images of his buildings\, industrial works and patents that have been identified.  Among these are several houses in Ashfield and also the original Baptist Church in Holden Street. \n\n\n\nAshfield Baptist Church\, built in 1885 and opened in January 1886\, survives today\, hidden behind a shopfront in Holden Street Ashfield.  (Photo courtesy of David Chivers\, ADHS Collection)\n\n\n\nRegistration Required. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nOrganiser

SUMMARY:LAUNCH OF PRESERVING THEIR NAMES
DESCRIPTION:The Society’s journal commemorating those from Ashfield and district who served in WW1. is now ready to be distributed. The research began with the work of Kerry Ann O’Reilly and Peter Byron recording the names on as many local WW1 Honour Boards as they could find. Then more searches of a variety of sources by a dedicated team added to the list and we ended up with over 3\,000 names. Detailed stories from 19 entries were explored and in the process some surprises were found. One story is about the five Jones brothers\, from 156 Liverpool Road Ashfield. \nPreserving Their Names was compiled and edited by Bernadette Williamson and Carolyn Carter\, with contributions from the Committee. The publication is free for financial members of the Society. \nGUEST SPEAKER –  BRAD MANERA\nWe are delighted that Brad Manera\, the CEO and Senior Historian at Sydney’s Hyde Park Anzac Memorial\, will launch Preserving Their Names. Mr Manera is described by the NSW RSL as a “war history guru”. His life-long passion for military history and battlefield archaeology has transcended both pastime and vocation. Mr Manera was a member of the editorial team writing the official history of NSW in the Great War. \nThere is a limit of 40 people at this COVID 19 aware event. BYO mask. A waiting list will be established in case places become available closer to the day or restrictions are further eased. \nPlease email to reserve a place at this event:  events@ashfieldhistory.org.au
