​Kaip ir pernai, nuo rugsėjo 10-os iki spalio 1-os, taip ir šiais metais MLK patalpos (Teatras, Baro salė, Jubiliejinė salė, Jaunimo kambarys, Moterų kambarys ir Bendruomenės kambarys) bus ir vėl išnuomoti Fringe festivaliui. Tuo metu lietuvių organizacijos negalės naudotis šiomis patalpomis, todėl iš anksto atsiprašome už nepatogumus. Tačiau, kaip ir visada, biblioteka lauks skaitytojų ir šv. Mišios bei sekmadieniniai pietūs vyks tuo pačiu laiku.

​MLK would like to inform that the Club will be unavailable for regular Lithuanian activities during 10 Sept – 1 Oct due to the Melbourne Fringe Festival. However you are more than welcome to visit the club as usual on Sundays. The library will be open and Sunday lunch will still be served, or you may like to attend some of the Fringe performances.

​Does anyone in the community remember Adomas Ivanauskas and
his wife Jean? (Please find some photos below)
A granddaughter of Adomas who was born in Lithuania after he was
forced to flee during World War II is looking for any information
about the grandfather she never knew.

Adomas Ivanauskas was born in Pazapsiai, Lithuania, in 1912. He
was at one stage a Sergeant in the Lithuanian Army, but was forced
to flee the advancing Soviets and lived in a Displaced Persons
Camp in Lübeck, Germany. Adomas departed Bremenhaven,
Germany, on October 30, 1947, and sailed to Fremantle, Western
Australia aboard the GENERAL STUART HEINTZELMAN with a
number of fellow Lithuanians, as well as some Latvians and
Estonians (see attached passenger list).

It is believed Adomas and Jean lived briefly in both Iron Knob and
Adelaide, South Australia, before moving to Melbourne, Victoria.
domas and Jean are both listed as living at 84 Elgin Street, Carlton,
Victoria, in 1963. Adomai occupation was welder, and his wife Jean
a process worker. Other Melbourne addresses the couple lived at
were 12 Vaucluse Street, Richmond, and 18 Manton Street,
Burnley. Adomas is believed to have died in 1967 in Karrakatta in
Western Australia.

If anyone from within the Lithuanian-Australian community
remembers these names, or perhaps further information about their
migration journey that could shed light on his life in Australia for his
granddaughter, please contact genealogist
