Glen Wills Cemetery

VIC, Australia

 

From a plaque at the site:

 

"Between August 1894 and August 1920, ninety-seven burials took place at the Glen Wills Cemetery, on the Omeo Highway, North of Omeo and South of the Mitta Mitta township. This Cemetery is now cared for by the people of the near by Glen Valley.

 

During those 26 years this Cemetery served the mining areas of Sunnyside and Glen Wills. To stand on the site of the long gone township of Sunnyside is an eerie feeling. "Sunnyside is situated on the Sunny side of nearby Mt Wills and is approximately 4000 feet above sea level. Today there is little more than blackberry bushes and a few very ancient fruit trees to mark the place where once was a thriving township. A Hotel, Stores, Catholic Church, School and Mechanics Institute and a population of around 600 people.

 

Sunnyside was reached by a rough bush track from Omeo known as the Knocker Track. Mail was delivered by coach and heavy goods by Bullock Wagon. Farmers from Benambra would make trips to the township with fresh meat, vegetables, butter and other produce, which was much in demand. Mr George Fitzgerald of "Shannon Vale" supplied oats to feed the horses. By 1924 the ore had become difficult to treat financially and water was also causing a problem, and not long afterwards the town was abandoned.

 

The Cemetery records illustrate the hardships experienced during these years - isolation, the severe weather conditions in winter, primitive housing and no doctors. Of the 97 persons buried, 40 were infants - sometime twins, sometimes a mother had died and soon after her baby. No baby formulas to feed a motherless baby, whooping cough and other illnesses would account for young children dying. Several young men were buried "by order of the Police In Charge" - I wonder what the story behind that would reveal? These truly were the Pioneers of this land.

 

Some years ago, due to the efforts of Mr Cecil Cooper, a sign was erected denoting Glen Wills Cemetery and a fence along the roadside. By this time only two graves were marked - one unknown and another marked by a fence in which a tree denoting the grave of Mrs Phillis Emmer Bittner, aged 43, who was buried in 1916.

 

In recent years (1985) a firm of bridge builders were constructing a new bridge over the Mitta Mitta river at Glen Valley. The mother of the bridge builders (of Croatian descent), was visiting her sons and was amased that there were no crosses in the Cemetery. Before leaving the area, they built a large cross on a square slab and promised that one day they would come back and erect crosses to commemorate the grave sites. This they did in the summer of 1991. As there is no plan of the actual sites of the graves, they were placed in a double row consistent with the two graves visible."

'Ooh, he's here again,

The man with the child in his eyes.

Ooh, he's here again,

The man with the child in his eyes.

 

He's very understanding,

And he's so aware of all my situations.

And when I stay up late,

He's always waiting, but I feel him hesitate.

 

Oh, I'm so worried about my love.

They say, "No, no, it won't last forever."

And here I am again, my girl,

Wondering what on Earth I'm doing here.

Maybe he doesn't love me.

I just took a trip on my love for him.

After EMR reported that engineering work was being undertaken between Wellingboro' & Kettering, I decided to see if the outstanding snags from my last visit had been dealt with.

 

Here, at Bush Bridge O/B, the recent addition of the contact wire on the Down Slow can be seen (it still hadn't oxidised!); when I last visited, the drop-down registration arm wasn't attached to the mid-point anchor portal (structure no. SPC3/106/842).

 

Note that blue construction earths are still in place, indicating that the wires are still dead.

Shepherd's Bush is a district in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham situated 4.9 miles (7.9 km) west of Charing Cross.

 

[...]

 

The name is thought to have originated from the use of the common land here as a resting point for shepherds on their way to Smithfield Market in the City of London. An alternative theory is that it could have been named after someone in the area, because in 1635 the area was recorded as "Sheppards Bush Green".

******************

 

130 years ago Hammersmith & Fulham was a largely rural area. There is evidence of Roman and Saxon occupation of some riverside areas and the manor of Fulham, which included Hammersmith, was referred to in the Domesday Book.

 

A Roman road leading westwards ran from Oxford Street along the line of the present Goldhawk Road. Shepherds Bush derives its name from shepherds who used to rest their flocks on a triangular green in the north of the borough on their way to market up until 1900.

 

The arrival of the railways in the borough was the catalyst for the development of the present day Hammersmith & Fulham. The extension of the Metropolitan Railway to Hammersmith via Shepherds Bush from Paddington in 1864 started these changes, followed by the District Line's arrival in Hammersmith (1874), West Brompton (1869) and Putney Bridge (1880). As a result, the second half of the nineteenth century saw a huge increase in population, from 10,000 in 1801 to 250,000 in 1901.

Only you can do something about it. '

There's no-one there, my friend, any better.

I might know what you mean when you say you fall apart.

Aren't we all the same? In and out of doubt.

I can see angels standing around you.

They shimmer like mirrors in Summer.

But you don't know it.

And they will carry you o'er the walls.

 

If you need us, just call.

Rest your weary world in their hands.

Lay your broken laugh at their feet.

I can see angels around you.

They shimmer like mirrors in Summer.

There's someone who's loved you forever but you don't know it.

You might feel it and just not show it.'
