- Summary:
-
The record of the mapping and stories of the farming heritage in the Parishes of Truganina, Tarneit and Derrimut, which includes the localities of Mt. Cotterell (Cottrell) and Rockbank has been undertaken in three stages. Initially, a series of hand drawn maps and detailed text naming the landholders and describing their lives was prepared by Albert Evans (1916-2005) as a retirement project. His project was named History of Truganina in the Early Days and From the Settlers to the 1969 Fires. Between 1994-1995, most of the localities of the properties and additional sites of heritage significance were transferred to a single large Victorian State Government map by John Todd and Frances Overmars. This map was named Sites of European Significance 1994-1995 which is updated as new information becomes available. Consultation for this map was undertaken with local families, including Eric Davis, Jack and Gwen Smith, Frank and Gwen Rowe, Norm Lawler, Ian Cowie, Jessie Squies, Barry Hopkins and from Werribee, Gwen Hames, W.D.H.S. and Daryl Wells. From 2019-2021 Judi Clark and Lance Pritchard from the Werribee District Historical Society provided a new title to a Powerpoint presentation and this book, with the aim of making this valuable recollection of the local history of Truganina, Tarneit and Derrimut more readily available.
