Subject: [AUS-VIC-WESTERN-DISTRICT] PHOTOGRAPHS OF PIONEERS

Hi all,



This was unknown by me until a few weeks ago, so I thought I would post the
information here in case anyone else is unaware of this wonderful piece of
Victorian history that may help their research; this may be the only
photograph of an ancestor of yours that exists -



THOMAS FOSTER CHUCK, photographer, (born England) arrived in Melbourne in
1863. He opened photographic studies in Melbourne, Daylesford, St Kilda and
Ballarat. Chuck set about photographing the first explorers, pioneers and
settlers who were still alive around 1864. When he completed his task of
photographing as many of the pioneers as he could find, the result became a
huge mosaic standing nearly two metres tall and containing over 1,000
portraits. It is stored in the basement of the State Library of Victoria
and there is a quarter-size copy in the National Library in Canberra. No
women are acknowledged as pioneers. The National Library only sells
photographs of the whole montage; SLV used to sell individuals if you
provided the relevant number, but I haven't received confirmation from them
that they still do so or if they are now only selling the complete montage.



If you would like to see his finished montage click on the link:-

All the portraits he used in the montage were numbered and identified. I
have a copy of the Key identifying all the photographs. If anyone would
like me to look up a name for them I am happy to do so. The list of
surnames is:-
