DETAILS

TitleAust House, later known as Samsonvale House, home of the pioneering Joyner family at Samsonvale, 1904DescriptionIn 1845, William Joyner (1815-1847) purchased the Samsonvale Run on the south side of the North Pine River. The fine two-storey home shown here was built in 1865 of red cedar with brick chimneys. It was first called Aust House, after the birthplace of William Joyner, and it remained a significant landmark in the area until it was finally pulled down in 1949. With the coming of closer settlement in the 1860s, the Joyners had moved from grazing to farming pursuits and the size of the property was greatly reduced.Date1904PhotographerGold, HenryCollectorGold CollectionRecord typePhotographFormat typePhysicalOriginal format colourBlack and white
