Darren should learn how to spell properly!

Located at 4525 Panako Rodd, this Classical Revival bank was built in 1929 by the J.L. Young Engineering Co. It was designed by architect John Mason and is now home to a branch of the First Hawaiian Bank. In 1978, the property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

 

Waimea, Hawaiʻi is a small community on the southwestern side of the island of Kauaʻi. The locality was the site of Captain James Cook's January 1778 landing on the Hawaiian Islands. Because of this history, Kauaʻi claims the slogan that it is "Hawaii's Original Visitor Destination."

On a quest to be become a better Victorian I have made it a goal to check out more tourist attractions. I didn't grow up here so I never got to go on all those boring field trips.

 

This is the Fisgard Lighthouse located at Fort Rodd Hill. It was pretty neat.

Rodd & Gunn opened at Broadway Plaza in 2021 after a delay of over a year. The original plans for a full interior and exterior renovation were scrapped, and the interior was left more or less as it was before - a long-vacant bebe store. The exterior fared a bit better.

 

Rodd & Gunn closed in 2025, and has since been replaced by a showroom for electric vehicle manufacturer Rivian.

Francis inherited the Trebartha estates from his cousin & possibly intended bride Mary Spoure / Bellott / Grylls www.flickr.com/gp/52219527@N00/m499JW who died from smallpox in 1729

Her bequest said this was "provided he is not already married to, or shall not at any time take to wife, Jane Parker, now living in Covent Garden, London."

3. Alicia b 1735

 

His son Francis had succeeded to his father's estate when he was only 4 years old. While he was a minor, his estates were managed by his mother Alice who added considerably to the lands

Afterwards Francis bought more lands including Altarnun, Lewannick, Linkinhorne and North Hill. He acquired even more valuable property by his marriage in 1763 to Jane Hearle of Penryn. Part of the marriage settlement says that Francis "... is entitled to a considerable fortune, which will not only be a very eligible and advantageous match for him, but may ultimately conduce to the Interest of his sisters". (thought all 3 sisters seem to have died unmarried ) Francis was to pay his sisters £1000 each and the sisters were to release all their rights to any other part of the settlement and legacy.

 

His grandson Francis Hearle Rodd 1766 - 1836 died without an heir when the estate passed to his brother Rev Edward Rodd

This image was scanned from a photograph in the personal papers of Lieutenant Colonel Brent B. Rodd of Newcastle, NSW, Australia, held by Cultural Collections at the University of Newcastle, NSW, Australia. It is from a collection by Lt. Col. Rodd, who served as a Major in the A.I.F. during World War I. He served with distinction, being wounded at the Battle of Villers-Bretonneux in 1918. His efforts are mentioned in Bean's official history of World War 1.

Here at Round Head Headland near Town of 1770 this species occurs side by side in both red and white (or cream) coloured forms.

Interestingly, this is the site where Captain Cook and Joseph Banks, presumably who the species was named after, came ashore on the 24th May 1770.

The following is from Tony Rodd - re the naming of Grevillea banksii. ((See comment on another photo)

G. banksii was named by Robert Brown in 1810, in the Transactions of the Linnean Society of London. Brown stated its origin as "In Novae Hollandiae ora orientale: Keppel Bay, Pine Port, &c". The actual specimen in the British Museum, chosen as lectotype by McGillivray and Makinson from among Brown's collections in the British Museum, is cited by them as "Port I [between Facing and Curtis Islands, near Gladstone]".

 

Here is a few other pics I have of a taller growing Grevillea banksii I have growing here at home.

Not far from the site of the old military depot at Glenroy is a grave whose lonely headstone tells a poignant story. Now heavily weathered the text is as follows, verbatim:

 

"SACRED

To The MEMORY

of ELIZA RODD

who departed this life

September 14the 1831

Aged 8 months and 6 days,

daughter of J Rodd colour sergant

in his MAGESTY 39th Regt foot

 

How can a tender Mothers care

Cease to love the child she bers

How can my frends discontented be

Since my Savour has taken me"

 

Glenroy was a significant government station in the two decades after 1816. Nothing remains above ground of the government site and this grave is unusual testimony to the soldiers stationed there. It is also the earliest dated gravemarker west of the Blue Mountains. Preceding civil registration, this stone is the only evidence of Eliza Rodd's existence. Its vernacular spelling and touching text are valuable evidence for social life in the area in the 1830s and of high significance at so early a date.

 

As soon as William Cox and his convicts built a road over the Blue Mountains and across the western plains in 1813-14, Governor Macquarie moved government stock over the mountains first to Hartley in 1815 then to Glenroy in 1816. The Glenroy settlement consisted of stockyards, pens, slab huts for stockmen and soldiers' accommodation near Cox's crossing of Cox's River: it retained importance until the early 1830s. In 1831 the 39th regiment of foot was stationed at Glenroy: on 12 January the wife of the colour sergeant, James Rodd, bore a daughter: she was christened Eliza but died on 14 September 1831 and was buried some 300 metres from the barracks. The property has been pastoral since the military withdrew soon after Eliza's burial. Historical Period Built 1826 - 1850, Used 1826 - 1850.

Bride and Bridesmaids after the ceremony!

 

Rodd and Ellejah have been good friends of mine for quite some time and I was honored when they wanted to hire me for their wedding. Now I've been to quite a few weddings in my days, but this was my favorite. It just seemed to me exactly how I would do it. It was a beautiful day in Isla Morada, Florida (Florida Keys), they had the ceremony in the back with an ocean view. Reception was a few steps away, great food. I had an amazing time and I was working!

Colwood, BC Canada

 

Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Site, on Fisgard Island at the mouth of Esquimalt Harbour in Colwood, British Columbia, is the site of Fisgard Lighthouse, the first lighthouse on the west coast of Canada.

 

Fisgard Lighthouse is about 6.2 miles by boat or 7.8 miles by car from downtown Victoria. Automated in 1929, the light shows a white isophase light of 2 second period in a sector from 322° to 195° at 71 ft above mean sea level, and in other directions it shows red shutters. The white 48 ft tower is floodlit below balcony level.

 

Fisgard Lighthouse was built in 1860 to guide vessels through the entrance of Esquimalt harbour. It was named after HMS Fisgard, a British Navy ship that spent time in the Pacific. 

 

Fisgard Lighthouse and its sister station Race Rocks Light, were constructed in 1859–60, to ease the movement of naval ships into Esquimalt harbour and merchant ships into Victoria Harbour. The light stations were also seen as a significant political and fiduciary commitment on the part of the British government to the Colony of Vancouver Island, partly in response to the American gold miners flooding into the region: some 25,000 arrived in 1858 for the Fraser gold rush.

 

The cast-iron spiral staircase in the tower was made in sections in San Francisco.Local legend claims that the brick and stone used in construction were sent out from Britain as ballast; in fact local brick yards and quarries supplied these materials, while the lens, lamp apparatus and lantern room were accompanied from England by the first keeper, Mr. George Davies, in 1859. The cast-iron spiral staircase in the tower was made in sections in San Francisco.

 

Fisgard first showed a light from the tower at sunset on 16 November 1860. Colonial Governor James Douglas petitioned the British government to build the lighthouse. Captain Richards supported his position. Construction was supervised by Colonial Surveyor and Engineer JD Pemberton. Architects John Wright and Hermann Otto Tiedemann did the design of the lighthouse and the picturesque gothic red brick residence adjoining it.

 

Permanent steel shutters were added to the landward side of the lantern room some time after 1897, when concussion from the 6-inch guns at newly built Fort Rodd Hill caused cracks to appear in the lantern windows. The last keeper to actually live full-time at Fisgard was George Johnson; Josiah Gosse, Fisgard's final keeper, had permission from the lighthouse authority to live ashore (nearby on Esquimalt Lagoon), and row out to Fisgard every evening.

 

In the early 1940s, the acetylene lamp in Fisgard's tower was replaced by a battery-powered electric light. In 1950–51, a causeway was built out to Fisgard Island from the foreshore at Fort Rodd Hill by the Canadian Army; this was intended as a military obstacle, but also provided direct access to Fisgard Lighthouse.
