Personal Notes:
Georeg Main e-mail 3 Feb 2014
Regarding my research project mentioned in our email correspondence below, I’m helping to organise a small event associated with the history of the Narrandera district, and I’m hoping you’d be able to distribute an invitation to all Jenkins family descendants with links to Buckingbong? I’ve copied this email to addresses I’ve found online, which hopefully will reach other family members.

In April this year, a small group of people will be walking for two days from Buckingbong camping reserve on the Murrumbidgee River to ‘North Taylors’ paddock, visiting significant places along the way. The walk will acknowledge local history, honour the capacities of land and people to produce food and fibre, and help build cultural and ecological resilience. Each night, four artists will present artworks, performance and installations made especially for each campsite. The project ends with a performance by acclaimed Australian singer songwriter Neil Murray. Partners include The Cad Factory (an innovative arts organisation located in the Narrandera district), Tirkandi Inaburra Cultural and Development Centre (see http://www.tirkandi.org.au/), National Museum of Australia, Wiradjuri Condobolin Corporation, Narrandera High School and visiting and local artists.

As you probably know, a well-documented component of the history of the Narrandera district is the intense conflict that occurred in the late 1830s and early 1840 between squatters and the local Wiradjuri people. In his book Narrandera Shire, historian Bill Gammage explains how this conflict culminated in a massacre of Wiradjuri people on Buckingbong, now recorded in the official name ‘Massacre Island’, an island on the Murrumbidgee River, between Buckingbong homestead and Narrandera town.
