Chinese fathers and their Australian families return to China, 1902 to 1940Kate Bagnall
Slides from presentation by Dr Kate Bagnall at the Visible Immigrants Seven conference, Flinders University/Migration Museum, Adelaide, Australia on 14 December 2012.
ABSTRACT
From as early as the late 1850s, Chinese migrant fathers began taking their Australian families to China. Over the eighty years or so that followed, hundreds of young Australians—some full Chinese, some part Chinese and some of full European descent—accompanied their Chinese fathers and step fathers to Hong Kong and southern China, particularly to the Pearl River Delta counties in Guangdong province. For some men, these return journeys signalled the end of an Australian sojourn, while for others it was but a temporary return to their homeland—an opportunity to take care of business or family matters, to educate children, or to visit with friends and relatives before returning ‘home’ once again to Australia.
This paper drew on records created in the administration of the Immigration Restriction Act—legislation which limited the mobility of Chinese people in and out of Australia—to explore this history of geographical mobility in Chinese Australian families. While records of travel in the colonial period are limited, after the introduction of the Immigration Restriction Act in 1901 officials kept careful track of Chinese leaving Australia to ensure that those who returned had the right to do so. The detailed administrative records created by these officials provide information that can be used to investigate both the motivations and mechanisms of travel by Chinese men and their Australian families in the early White Australia period. Why did Chinese fathers take their Australian children with them to China? Where did they travel to? How did they get there? How long did they spend overseas? What did they do there? And, finally, how did they negotiate their personal and familial mobility within the restrictions imposed by White Australia?
Henry VIII ruled England from 1509 to 1547. He had six wives: Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Katherine Parr. Henry broke from the Catholic Church and established himself as the head of the new Church of England after failing to obtain an annulment from Catherine of Aragon. He had Catherine and Anne Boleyn executed and divorced the other wives. Henry's children included Mary I, Elizabeth I, and Edward VI, who succeeded him as monarchs of England.

He was politically engaged and wrote A Modest Proposal in 1729 to satirize the political situation in Ireland under British rule. At the time, Catholic Irish people faced extreme poverty and oppression under the Penal Laws enacted by Britain. In just three sentences, the document provides biographical context on Swift and outlines the political situation in Ireland involving the subjugation of the Catholic Irish majority that informed Swift's writing of A Modest Proposal.

This document provides biographical information about Enos Stookey and Jemima Elizabeth Child, including their ancestry and family origins in Illinois. It details their conversion to Mormonism in the 1850s, their emigration from Illinois to Utah Territory in 1855 with the John Hindley pioneer company, and their subsequent settlement in Clover, Utah (now part of Rush Valley). The document incorporates excerpts from Jemima Stookey's autobiography describing their difficult wagon train journey across the plains and early experiences in Salt Lake City upon arrival in September 1855.
This document provides a genealogical summary of the Waldegrave family lineage from Sir Guerin de Waldegrave in 1000 AD in France and Normandy to the present day. It traces the descendants across generations, providing the names of each individual, their birth/death dates, spouses and children. The lineage is one of nobility and land ownership across England and Europe over many centuries.
The English Renaissance occurred between 1485-1625. It was inspired by rediscovery of classical Greek and Roman arts and literature. Key developments included the introduction of humanism and the printing press, which increased access to books. Notable figures included William Shakespeare, who wrote 37 plays and invented over 3,000 words, and Sir Walter Raleigh, a poet and explorer. The Protestant Reformation led by Martin Luther divided the Catholic Church, with Henry VIII later breaking England's ties with Rome. Elizabeth I's long reign saw England defeat the Spanish Armada and establish itself as a major power.
L ecture1 the beginning of literature in americathreebayar
The document provides historical context on the beginnings of literature in America. It discusses how early American literature was closely tied to English literature, as the earliest settlers brought the English language and books with them and modeled their writing after English authors for nearly 200 years. It was not until the 18th century that some colonial writing began to be considered meritorious in its own right. The document then gives brief overviews of the founding and early settlers of the Jamestown colony in Virginia in 1607 and the Puritan colonization of New England from 1620-1640, noting the different motivations that drove colonization in each region.
The document is a PowerPoint presentation about famous people from Massachusetts containing information on several individuals, including:
- Henry David Thoreau, a writer from Concord who lived at Walden Pond and advocated for civil disobedience.
- Maria Mitchell, the first female astronomer in the US who discovered a comet and received honors from universities and scientific organizations.
- Susan B. Anthony, a teacher and abolitionist who fought for women's suffrage and helped women gain the right to vote.
- Several other revolutionary figures are mentioned briefly like Paul Revere, John Hancock, Ben Franklin, John F. Kennedy, Clara Barton, Deborah Sampson, and Horace Mann.
The document provides an agenda and overview for a field experience at New Windsor Cantonment teaching about the Hudson Valley during the Revolutionary War era. It includes educational resources, demographics of 18th century America before the Revolution, details on government and daily life at the time. Biographies are given for several individuals from the period, including Henry Kneeland, Oliver Cromwell, Deborah Sampson, and Sarah Osborn Benjamin. Artifacts from the time like a Spanish dollar, Chinese porcelain, iron ax, musket, and stays are also briefly described.
This document provides a literary map of significant English writers from the Middle English period to the early 20th century. It lists writers such as Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare, John Milton, Charles Dickens, and T.S. Eliot, and provides brief biographies of some of the writers including their dates, works, and other details. The document also divides English literary history into various periods such as the Renaissance, Romanticism, and Victorian period to contextualize the writers chronologically.
John Dalton was born in 1766 in Cumberland, England. He worked as a teacher and lecturer in England. He began teaching at age 12 and taught for 10 years at a Quaker school before moving to Manchester to teach. Dalton made pioneering contributions to the development of atomic theory and research on color blindness, which is sometimes called Daltonism. He died in 1844 at the age of 78 from paralysis and a stroke.
Daniel Defoe was an English writer born in 1660 who is considered the founder of the English novel. Some of his most famous works include Moll Flanders, A Journal of the Plague Year, and Robinson Crusoe. Robinson Crusoe was based partly on the true story of Scottish castaway Alexander Selkirk, who spent over four years stranded on an uninhabited island in the early 1700s. Defoe came from a middle-class family, received a dissenting education, and published many political pamphlets and satires throughout his career in addition to his groundbreaking novels.
The Mormon & Quaker Moons of Lancashire: Stories of Religious Conversion & Mi...Cometan
In 1653, a branch of the Moon family of the Fylde coast made the radical decision to join the newly-formed Religious Society of Friends. Edward Moon and his sons faced fines, harassment and imprisonment at Lancaster Castle for this decision but remained steadfast in their Quaker beliefs and close to their leader George Fox. The Moon family continued the trend of religious dissidence when another branch converted to Mormonism in 1837 and set sail for New York on 6th June 1840, becoming the first British Latter-day Saints to emigrate to America. There, the Mormon Moons endured angry mobs, witnessed the assassination of their prophet and became pioneers, eventually settling in the wasteland of the Great Salt Lake Valley in modern-day Utah.

…I therefore visited Bedford Record Office and checked their printed index to the
apprentice records. There to my delight was the record for Robert Tilley the son of
John Tilley of Henlow being apprenticed to a Bedford tailor named John Jones for the
term of eight years in October 1617. So the reason Robert did not travel to America
with his parents was that he was already serving an apprenticeship in Bedford…

8. “Jan Tellij” of Leyden was Not John Tilley of the Mayflower
The accompanying illustration presents the record of the betrothal at Leyden, on 13
February, 1615, of “Jan Tellij” and “Prijntgen Van den Velde.” This record is found
in the “Kerkelicke Huwelycke Proclamatie Boeck”, folio 48 verso, with other
betrothals of the same date. The marriage took place on 3 March, 1615.
The betrothal record reads as follows:
(The Dutch Record)
Jan Tellij Saeywercker Jongman van Leyden vergeselschapt met Paulus Telly zyn
vader met Prijntgen Van den Velde Jonge dochter mede van Leijden vergselschapt
met Maeychen Tay haer moeder
(The English Translation)
John Telly, say weaver, single man, of Leyden, accompanied by Paul Telly his
father, with Pryntgen Van den Velde, single woman, also of Leyden, accompanied by
Maeychen Tay her mother.
The use of the terms “Jongman”, meaning single man, or bachelor, and “Jonge
dochter,” meaning single woman, proves that neither “Jan Tellij” nor “Prijntgen Van
den Velde” had ever been married before.
Elizabeth Tilley came in the Mayflower with her father, John Tilley, and later
married John Howland. The date of her marriage is unknown, but her son John2
Howland, born 24 February, 1626/7,[1] and her daughter Desire2 Howland, whose
birth date is unknown, were both living on 22 May, 1627.[2] Unless these children
were twins, which seems unlikely from the meager data obtainable, Desire2 must have
been born as early as February, 1625/6. Whether or not they were twins, it is certain
that on 24 February, 1626/7, Elizabeth (Tilley) Howland was the mother of two
children. In her will, dated 17 December, 1686, she called herself “Seventy nine
yeares of Age but of good & perfect memory”,[3] thus fixing her own birth date as
about 1607, or 1608. As the statement of the will is supported by the known facts
regarding her children, and nothing has been found which casts any doubt upon it, we
must accept it as correct. But even if we did not have the statement of the will by
which to fix the age of Elizabeth Tilley, it is evident that she must have been born
9. before 3 March, 1615 otherwise she would have become the mother of two children
before she was twelve years of age. Since Elizabeth (Tilley) Howland was born before
3 March, 1615, she could not have been a daughter either of “Jan Tellij” or of
“Prijntgen Van den Velde” who were married on that date, neither having been
married before.
The only known contemporary references to the parentage of Elizabeth (Tilley)
Howland are found in Bradford’s History. In the list of the Mayflower Passengers he
mentions her three times, as follows:
“John Tillie, and his wife; and Eelizabeth their doughter”
“John Howland maried the doughter of John Tillie, Elizabeth, and they are both
now living;”
“John Tillie, and his wife both dyed, a little after they came ashore; and their
daughter Elizabeth maried with John Howland”[4]
These statements were written by Governor Bradford while John Howland and his
wife were still living in Plymouth, where all three had lived for more than thirty years,
and Bradford must then have had his own manuscript “register…recording some of
the first deaths, marriages and punishments”, which Rev. Thomas Prince obtained
from the Governor's grandson, Major John Bradford, and referred to so frequently in
his New England Chronology, published in 1736. Governor Bradford was in a
position to know the facts. Therefore, as no evidence has yet been produced to
controvert his statements, we must accept them as they have come down to us in his
own handwriting.
It has been shown that Elizabeth (Tilley) Howland was not the daughter of “Jan
Tellij”, the Leyden bridegroom of 1615; and on the other hand it has been shown that
she was the daughter of John Tilley of the Mayflower. It is evident, therefore, that
“Jan Tellij” and John Tilley were not identical, but were two entirely distinct
individuals.
