    In 1875 the local parish priest Father Geranimo Davadi originally from Le Marche Italy encouraged the tin miners to diversify as he could foresee problems when incomes from tin petered out. He even helped with cuttings from his own established nursery. His first vineyard being the horse paddock of the presbytery. Later planting a vineyard at the foot of Mt Marley. He is referred to as ‘ Father of the Fruit Industry ‘. Italian Influx After both world wars there was an influx of mainly Italian immigrants to the region many taking up land that Soldier settlers had abandoned. Some of them working and or farming on orchards and table grape vineyards. Local growers then making and providing bulk wine from excess ripe grapes to supply to their family and friends in the northern Queensland cane fields. A few vineyards today can trace their history back to this time with Bungawarra (Angelo Barbagallo 1920’s), Ballandean Estate (Salvatore Cardillo 1930) and Rumbalara (1928) all being established on older table grape vineyards.

    I'm suspecting this is a propaganda photograph?
  • Art Siegel said:
    It definitely shows a scene from a peaceful and friendly occupation. I think almost all of the Bain war photos are propaganda, depending on which side the audience for the photo was rooting.
  • billy_pilgrim said:
    I wonder if the guy on the bike is making some sort of rude gesture (early photo bomb). The only thing I can think of is the "biting the thumb" gesture that means screw you. He looks too intently at the camera not to be in some way making his own comment on the scene.
  • Art Siegel said:
    looking at the hi-res version, it seems he has a pipe in his mouth.
