The ''Grenville Advocate'' served the district in later half of the 19th century. It was established by printer Johann Hermann Vogt who, along with his wife Maria Elisabeth, (née Kellner, a former operatic singer) and family arrived in Melbourne, Australia on the ''Marco Polo'' on 6 December 1856. The family lived at Kew before later settling in the Scarsdale district. Journalist and editor, George Leonard Vogt (1848–1937), also worked on the ''Grenville Advocate''. The son of Johann and Maria, he was born on 1 November 1848 at Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Upon the death of his father in 1864, George was apprenticed to a Ballarat printer. From there he developed a deep interest in political reform movements. ==Archives== Microfilm copies of the ''Grenville Advocate'' held at the State Library of Victoria span 12 March 1862 to 4 December 1875.
