50077Sydney : Government Printer 1885. Invitation card 113 x 115 mm; lithograph printed recto only in black on cream lightweight card stock; O'Connor's name entered in manuscript; toned and lightly marked tiny loss at one corner verso with superficial loss from where the card was once mounted in an album. Provenance: Removed from a dilapidated album of mounted printed ephemera compiled by J. G. O'Connor 1839-1913 Irish-born Sydney journalist printer and politician. From the ADB: 'Joseph Graham O'Connor 1839-1913 journalist and politician was born at Dareen House King's County Ireland son of Stephen O'Connor tanner and currier and his wife Ann née Graham. At 2 he went with his parents to New South Wales. Educated by the Christian Brothers and at the Sydney College he was apprenticed to a wood engraver and printer. In the late 1850s O'Connor began business as an engraver and printer and in 1860 produced the short-lived Sunbeam for the Catholic Young Men's Society. In 1864 he joined W. B. Dalley W. J. Macleay and J. J. Harpur in bringing out the unsuccessful Sydney Times devoted to 'the promotion of Australian literature and the advocacy and encouragement of native industry'. In 1867 he began the Balmain Reporter one of the earliest suburban newspapers. His journalistic pursuits became more exclusively Irish and Catholic. In 1870-71 he edited and printed the Catholic Association Reporter. In 1876 he had debts of over £1400 sold his press and was not discharged from bankruptcy until 1884 after paying 3s. in the £. In 1877 he had begun the Catholic Times in opposition to the Freeman's Journal. In 1880 Archbishop Vaughan was dissatisfied with the Freeman's independent attitude and bought the Catholic Times changing its name to the Express. In 1884 O'Connor took it over again and began the Nation devoted to Irish news; he incorporated it in the Express in 1887. In 1890 debts forced him to close his last newspaper venture and his estate was again sequestered. He had supported his unprofitable newspapers with a mostly successful printing business but in 1892 his friends had him appointed chief clerk on the Water and Sewerage Board at Newcastle from which he retired in 1909. As a youth O'Connor had helped to collect funds to relieve the 1858 Donegal famine victims and next year became an original member of the Celtic Association. In 1869-72 he was lay secretary of the Catholic Association founded by Archbishop Polding in 1867 to support a separate system for Catholic schools. In the 1870s and 1880s he organized several concert tours of country districts to raise funds for the Church. Active in municipal politics with various Irish Catholic factions he was auditor of the Sydney City Council in 1870-74. After several attempts he was elected in 1873 to the Legislative Assembly for Mudgee in the Catholic interest. Defeated in 1875 he lost again in 1880. O'Connor helped to organize the annual St Patrick's Day celebrations and did not eschew more controversial Irish causes: in 1866 he was treasurer of the Irish State Prisoners' Fund organized to assist the dependants of Fenian prisoners in Ireland; in 1871 he helped to welcome Fenian prisoners released from Western Australia and in 1883 he was one of the few prominent Irish Catholics to welcome William and John Redmond. Affectionately known as 'old white hat' from the topper he invariably wore he chaired their first Sydney meeting and was president of the local branch of the Irish National League. He remained close friends with the Redmonds and helped later Irish delegates. At Sydney in 1861 O'Connor had married Mary Earl d.1903. He died of bronchitis at his Mayfield home on 22 July 1913 and was survived by a married daughter. The Irish Parliamentary Party contributed to a monument over his grave in Sandgate cemetery.' unknown

1883213731883. Albumen cabinet card with original photograph of the Australian station now located in the township called Barooga. Photograph on card with printed border the title written in pencil on verso. A small station house is visible at the right side of the image with a long wooden fence bordering the river. <br /> <br /> The area which later became Boomanoomana Station was first settled in the early 1800’s by Colonel Henry Gwynne who arrived there in the footsteps of Charles Sturt. By 1863 the station got its name when William Hay acquired 80000 acres. The property extended from Corowa in the east to Tuppal Station in the west and was quite wooded therefore suitable for cattle. But Hay wanted to establish a sheep station so he sold off his cattle cleared the trees at great effort and fenced the land purchasing merino sheep from established stations. Hay built a homestead which still stands; it was owned by Sir David Hay 1916 - 2009 head of Aboriginal Affairs Administrator of Papua New Guinea and Ambassador to the UN who restored the grounds and buildings to original condition. <br /> 3 1/2 x 6 1/2" image on card 4 1/2 x 6 1/2". Cabinet card not recorded in Trove.<br /> with <br /> American Merino Rams recorded in the American Merino Register selected by W. G. Markham Avon NY USA from the best American Flocks. Shipped from San Francisco California June 1883. Consignee: Alfred Hay Esq. Boomanoomana Mulwala New South Wales Australia. <br /> <br /> W. G. Markham was heavily involved in the exportation of merinos to Australia. He convinced Australian wool growers that introducing American merinos into the Australia flock would increase their weight and this was very successful. The purchaser here is Alfred Hay 1846 - 1918 the son of William Hay who established Boomanoomana Station. Alfred Hay became sole owner of Boomanoomana Station in 1886 after the dissolution of the partnership between his father himself and brother. Boomanoomana Station at the time consisted of 33000 acres of freehold and about 5000 acres of Crown lands.<br /> <br /> Markham was mentioned in many articles about Australian wool growing. In the "Pacific Rural Press" Volume 36 Number 24 15 December 1888 it reads: "We imagine it was this large purchase of sheep by Mr. Samuel McCaughey which started that genial globetrotter in the sheep interest Mr. W. G. Markham of Western New York on a pleasure trip to Australia last summer. Mr. Markham made us a call in California on his way out but did not disclose his business. We imagine that he went to see if there were any more sheep buyers like Mr. McCaughey in Australia and turn their attention to the flock of Western New York as well as to those of the Green Mountain State. It might not be amiss for some of our California breeders to Blip over to the Island continent just to see how things are over there." Samuel McCaughey of Melbourne was reputed to be the owner of a million sheep and one of the most influential wool producers in Australia. <br /> <br /> The pedigree published in New York 1883. 17 pp text with a fold-out pedigree of Ranzin 464. Oblong 12mo orig. brown mat boards with gilt. "Compliments of W. G. Markham" on the front cover black cloth spine. Slt. watermark on back board otherwise pristine. unknown
