 | "The Vernon"
The Vernon and the Sobraon, Nautical training ships for boys 1867-1911
The Vernon opened in 1867. It was used as an Industrial School and a Reformatory as there was no separate boys' reformatory schools until 1895. The ship held boys until they turned seven. The Vernon was docked at Cockatoo Island.
The Sobraon, which replaced the Vernon in 1892, was used until 1911, when the remaining boys were set to the Mittagong Farm Home for Boys and the Brush Farm Home for Boys. |

 | 1891 Census Alexander Frater
The 1891 Census of New South Wales. The census was taken on April 5, 1891. Individual’s names aren’t included other than the household information that was recorded, for instance, name, number in household, and number of Chinese or Aboriginal people. While this limits the extent of the census’ usefulness, it is also the first census since 1841 to have survived. A fire at the Garden Palace in 1882 destroyed the 50 years of census records held there.

MR. RICHARD EDWIN ELFORD

WHO WHILE SERVING THEIR COUNTRY
LOST THEIR LIVES ON THIS SPOT
IN AN AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT ON 13TH AUGUST 1940.
The memorial is a granite boulder set in a circular bed of loose gravel bounded by a low concrete wall.
It commemorates ten people, including three Cabinet Ministers and the Chief of the General Staff, who were killed when an R.A.A.F. Lockheed Hudson bomber crashed on 13 August 1940. The aircraft, which was flying from Melbourne to Canberra, had circled the runway and then flown towards Queanbeyan to make another approach. Coming in to land it stalled and crashed on to a hillside about 2.5 kilometres from the aerodrome.
The Court of Inquiry into the accident found that it was most likely due to the aircraft stalling on its landing approach, resulting in loss of control at a height too low to recover. The aircraft crashed with considerable force, killing all occupants instantly, then burning fiercely. Its proximity to the aerodrome and RAAF base saw emergency crews at the scene within minutes, but nothing could be done to save the occupants.
The Canberra RAAF base was later renamed RAAF Fairbairn in honour of one of the victims. James Fairbairn was an accomplished pilot who served with the Royal Flying Corps during WW I. On becoming a Member of Parliament he frequently flew himself to Canberra and landed at the aerodrome which was then a leased paddock near Duntroon. This eventually became the RAAF base
