Album of portraits of the Lovelock, Meyer and other families
Album containing portraits of Meyer and Lovelock family members. Kelly, Genery, Herbert, Polhill, Sanders, Clayton, Ramsay, Gerrard and other families are included. Some families appear to be from the Yankalilla area. It is not known who compiled the album. To view images, take the Browse Album link. The album provides examples of carte-de visite and cabinet portraiture of many Adelaide photographers of the 1870s to 1890s, as well as good examples of the clothing and dress fashion of the day. The photographers are noted in brackets after the caption, where they are known. Photograph 26 shows a person in military uniform with a distinctive pill box cap, possibly the uniform of the Mounted Volunteer Corps of the Volunteer Militia. The album has a hand sewn cream suede cover, with rudimentary embroidery done in an acorn and leaf pattern. Additional research was carried out by Anthony Laube, who believes the album probably belonged to Mrs Lovelock. His additional information is shown in square brackets.

View on the Patawalonga
Early morning view from the Patawalonga of the river bank, about where Stanley Street now meets the river frontage, 19 November 1948. 'The location of these trees can be clearly identified in photo PRG 1459/2/8. At high tide, as shown here, it was possible to thread the canoe through a very obscure, narrow channel and beach right under the shade of the trees. This was the location of the secret picnic site that Doug Mackenzie shared with his dog, as told in his story entitled "The Smelly Old Patawalonga. A Boy's Own Wonderland" [PRG 1459/3]. A large part of a later subdivision, bounded on the north by a newly created Anderson Avenue and Stanley Street to the south, was compulsorily acquired and held for years by the state government as provision for a new channel to the sea. This was to be immediately south of Anderson Avenue and is clearly shown on page 105 of Doug Mackenzie's book "Glenelg and the Patawalonga" [PRG 1459/1] as it appeared in the "The Advertiser" on 21 March 1950. When this plan was later scrapped the Government sold off the subdivision at a very nice profit indeed.' [Information supplied by Doug Mackenzie].
