[please excuse cross-postings] Do you know someone who immigrated to Victoria to work as a domestic servant after 1900? The Immigration Museum is undertaking research on this topic. (see below for more details....) If you have any photos or information, please contact Sue Doyle Image Researcher sdoyle@mov.vic.gov.au (03) 9927 2734. Details Monash University and the Immigration Museum are currently developing a publication to commemorate the economic contribution of immigrants to Victoria in the twentieth century. It will contain text by academics from Monash University supported by lots of photos. Whilst the project team are keen to include the many aspects of immigrant women's work, this can be difficult, so far as photos and personal stories are concerned due to the lack of records. Some of the most elusive materials are those that relate to the lives of domestic servants earlier this century. Advertisements and promotional material are available, but this is little to indicate how reality matched expectation.
