A collection of six nineteenth century photograph albums containing nearly 300 portraits of three generations of the Hawkins and Robertson families

The photographs (cartes de visite and cabinet cards) depict Annie Griffith Roberts, her first husband Dr James Hawkins, her second husband, Dr Edward Bruce Robertson, and Oriana, one of the children of the second marriage. The Robertsons came to Australia in 1887; Oriana married into the Moodie family of 'Wando Dale', Coleraine, Victoria. Of primary importance are the approximately 50 portraits featuring prominent members of pioneering Western District pastoral families: the Camerons of 'Dunan'; the Edgars of Pine Hills; the Gardiners of Nangwary; the McConochies of Konongwootong; and the Trangmars of Burswood. The photographs are contained in five full-leather quarto albums, and an attractive arch-topped six-panel folding panoramic frame (for cartes de visite) in full morocco. [6 items].
