EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of a large Welsh immigrant family enjoying a moment of relaxation outside their humble abode in the Australian outback town of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. Established in 1893 during the Coolgardie gold rush, Kalgoorlie became a bustling hub for British emigrants in search of new opportunities and wealth. By the early 1910s, the town had grown into a thriving community, with families like this one making their homes among the sandy dunes and sun-baked plains. The family, numbering at least ten, stands proudly on the verandah of their modest house at 269 Egan Street. The women and children are dressed in their Sunday best, while the men don work clothes, a testament to the hard labor that sustained their new lives Down Under. The warmth of the Australian sun filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows on the ground as the family shares a laugh or a story. The photograph transports us back to a time when the promise of a better life drew thousands of Welsh immigrants to the shores of Australia. The enduring legacy of their journey can still be felt in the rich cultural tapestry of Western Australia and the resilient spirit of the people who call this land home.
