History of item

Part of Winston Burchett's index card set, created and used by Winston Burchett to support his research and writings. The set of cards is held by the East Melbourne Library and is fully digitised and published by the East Melbourne Historical Society with the permission of the Library. The reliability of the information in this set of cards varies considerably. It should not be used as a primary source but as a lead to other sources.

NOTE: The information on this card applies to the house which was on the corner of Jolimont Street and Jolimont Terrace. In the rate books and MMBW plan it was numbered 2 Jolimont Street. However it often appears elsewhere as 2 Jolimont Terrace. The street numbers were changed in the 1950s and the apartments now on the site are numbered 44 Jolimont Street.
