Biographical History
Papers collected by Cigler while researching a book on Douglas Grant, a full-blooded Aborigine, draughtsman and soldier who was born in the Bellenden Ker Ranges, Queensland, and adopted at 12 months by Robert Grant after his parents were killed. Grant joined the 13th Battalion AIF in 1916, was taken prisoner-of-war at the battle of Bullecourt, and held near Berlin.
Educationalist and historian. Cigler had an active role in researching and pushing for the publication of histories of ethnic communities in Australia and campaigned successfully to have the former migrant camp, Bonegilla, converted into a museum of immigration in Victoria. He died in 1990.
