Description: SUDDEN DEATH IN VERNER-STREET.
AN old man named Homan Rice, watchmaker, died suddenly on Monday morning at his
residence in Verner-street. A magisterial inquiry was held at the Court-house in
the afternoon by Mr. O'Brien, and Dr. McKillop, after viewing the body and
hearing the evidence, came to the conclusion that the cause of death was senile
decay, accelerated by an attack of influenza. Deceased had been living with his
son Thomas Rice, a lad about 15 years of age. Thomas Rice gave evidence to the
effect that his father was 76 years of age, a widower, and a native of County
Cork, Ireland. Witness was his only son. He said his father went to bed on
Sunday night at half-past 12 o'clock and then complained of pains nearly all
over him. He had been complaining of illness off and on for about 10 days
previously. He slept in a bed next to witness, but the latter heard no noise
from him except constant coughing and a choking noise. He got up at 6 o'clock
and went to bed again at 8, intending to have an hour's rest. About nine o'clock
he started coughing and kept it up for half-an-hour, and at 25 minutes to 10 he
took a choking fit and went straight off. He had not been attended by a doctor.
Mary Beale, laundress, said she had been acquainted with deceased for a short
time. He had not had very good health since his arrived in Goulburn, about three
months ago. She saw him last Sunday week, and he seemed very bad then, and she
tried to get him to see a doctor, but he would not hear of it. On Sunday night
she went to see his son, who was ill, and deceased seemed much better and more
cheerful, but he was coughing very much. Next morning she was sent for and she
found deceased dead. The coroner's finding was in accordance with the medical
testimony.

Description: DEATH OF MR. ED. R. ROLFE.
South Coast Pioneer.
There passed away on Monday last an old identity of Nerriga, Nowra, and
Braidwood districts, in the per son of Mr. E. R. Rolfe, at the home-stead,
Nerriga (writes the Nowra "Leader.") He was equally well-known in either of the
places. For many years he was referred to by numerous friends as "Old Ned
Rolfe." He was a man of keen business acumen as a dealer in live stock. He was a
native of Windellema, near Goulburn where he was born in the year 1845, 86 years
ago, and even since he was able to cross his legs over a saddle there was seldom
a day he was not on horseback. Thousands of miles he travelled in that way, in
dealing in stock alone. He was an equestrian of no mean order up to several
years ago, though of more recent date was frequently to be seen driving in a
sulky either to Nowra or Braidwood, or Goulburn. Indeed he was a familiar figure
in the saleyards at those centres for half-dozen decades or more. The
last-mentioned centre was one of his principal marketing places. Perhaps there
was no better judge of beast horses or cattle for dealing purposes than
the same late Edward Richard Rolfe. He travelled in all weathers and under all
conditions, when snowing and more often the reverse when the broiling sun would
have his steed in a lather of sweat, whilst he himself lost sufficient
perspiration to damp the saddle on which he was seated.
Many thousands of head of stock passed through his hands, to say nothing of the
large numbers of sheep he bought and sold to advantage. Seldom, if ever, did he
fail to show a profit on his transactions, and deserves all credit for his
success, having made a competence, being possessed of considerable land and
stock. The late Mr. Rolfe, needless to say, was one of the hearty old school.
Though as stated previously, he travelled under all sorts of weather conditions,
he scarcely, if ever, indulged in the fiery liquor to keep the cold out or dull
the biting cold sleet winds that he surely faced in his long years of travel. He
was truly one of the old hardy pioneers that are fast passing out, leaving new
generations with more comfortable and modern means to journey such long
distances as in the days of yore. He was an excellent judge of Horseflesh, being
a particularly keen admirer of the best of blood stock, though it might be said
there were few better judges or greater admirers of the draught stock. He went
in for both. When the Coolangatta thoroughbreds dispersal sale took place, many
years ago, Mr. "Ned", Rolfe made it his business to be there and was one of the
largest purchasers. Some of the noted entires in blood stock he had were "Tim
Whiffler," "Churchhill," "Comet', and others. Old hands will remember "Lilly,"
in the days of the late George McGuire and the late Molyneux Harridge, chemist,
a fine race mare, which was one of his breeding. "Havanah," was another noted
sire, which passed through his hands, to obtain good racing strain. In the
draughts he had "Young Topsman," "Tallarand,' and various others.
He married a member of the old Henry family, Mr. Robt. Henry, of Ulladulla,
formerly of Nowra, was a nephew, and there was issue thirteen in family, eleven
of whom survive the grand old man, viz., Edward and William, who are twins, of
Nerriga John and Leslie (Kyogle); Harry (Sergeant of police, Sydney); Arthur
(Komungla, near Goulburn) ; Cecil (Ranger Cordeaux and Avin Dam). The daughters
were Francis (deceased) Mrs. Dunn; Jessie (Mrs. Wallis, Murwillumbah); Mabel
(Mrs. W. Underwood), Nowra; Amy (Mrs. Hart), Kyogle; and Ruby (Mrs Muffit)
Mortdale. The other son was Lindsay, who it will be remembered met a sad ending
on the mountain side at Sassafras as a result of a motor lorry accident at night
a little over twelve months ago.
The interment took place at Nerriga cemetery, which is on the estate on
Wednesday last, when a large circle of old friends attended to pay their last
tribute of respect.

The death occurred at Nowra on Saturday last of Mr John Kennedy at the age of 66
years. He only took ill on Tuesday last, and was taken to the Elmund Hospital.
Nowra. where pneumonia supervened, and he passed away as stated.
Mr. Kennedy purchased the De Mestre estate at Nerriga about 40 years ago, where
he carried on grazing until about 14 years ago, when he disposed of his property
and returned to Nowra to live.
The deceased married Miss Norah McNamara, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. E.
McNamara, of Nerriga, who predeceased him 25 years ago. He leaves one son and
two daughters, viz., John, of Nowra, Hilda (Mrs. Reg Hockey), of Nerriga, and
Molly, the wife of Councillor E. C. Smith, of Nerriga.
The deceased gentleman was a man of outstanding character , a man whose word was
his bond. Liked and respected by every one with whom he came in contact, he was
a man who had many friends.
To use the words of a Nerriga resident, 'He was the whitest man the district has
had.' The remains were brought to Nerriga on Sunday and interred in the R.C.
cemetery in the presence of a large gathering of relatives and friends. His
three brothers and a number of his intimate friends followed the cortege from
Nowra on Sunday. Rev. Father McGilvray conducted an impressive burial service.
Mr. J. J. Muller, of Nerriga, had charge of the funeral arrangements. We extend
our sympathy to his relatives, and particularly to Mrs. E. Smith, of Nerriga.

INQUEST
On Friday afternoon last , the District Coroner, Mr. Julius Vider, conducted an
inquiry in connection with the death of Mr. Louis Ingram.
Dr. James Macarthur deposed to having viewed the body in a horse yard near the
drill hall on 5th October.
He was quite dead, and in his opinion had been dead about an hour. There was no
evidence of any struggle. On the 6th October he performed a post mortem
examination. The body was well nourished, and there were no external marks of
violence. All the organs were healthy except the heart, which showed acute
dilitation and had evidently been diseased for some time.
In his opinion death was due to heart failure. He would say that deceased must
have been a man of strong character and grit, as from the nature of his trouble
he must have suffered considerably from heart pain and at times difficulty in
breathing. He had never attended him professionally.
Constable D. J. F. Sturgess deposed that at 5.50 on 5th October he went to the
horse yard, where he saw the body of Louis Ingram lying on his back.
He was dead, and appeared to have been dead for some time. There was no evidence
of any struggle or foul play. Dr. Macarthur arrived a few minutes later and
pronounced life extinct. The body was also viewed by the Coroner, Mr. Vider, who
ordered its removal to the hospital morgue for the purpose of post mortem
examination.
Edward Ingram, retired horse trainer, a brother of deceased, gave formal
evidence relating to the personal property, etc., of deceased and deposed that
he and his brother had lived together at Orbost for about 35 years, deceased
returning to Bombala about two years ago. He remembered Louis being very sick at
Orbost about five years ago, suffering from heart trouble.
He was attended by a doctor there.
He had complained of his heart ever since.
Sergeant G. H. Sewell gave formal evidence of having conveyed the body to the
hospital and attending the post mortem.
John R. Burgess, bank officer, deposed that between 5.30 and 6 p.m. on 5th
October he was in the vicinity of Sister Dent's cottage in Burton Street when a
lady came across and said there was a man lying in the corner of the horse yard
nearby, and that he was dead.
He went to the yard and saw the body lying on its back. Sister Dent came any
sign of life, and said, "He is dead."
He then went and informed the police.
Gordon Desmond Ingram, a schoolboy nephew of deceased, deposed to having been
talking to his uncle at the horse yard on his way home from school about 4.30,
when he seemed all right.
Lionel Robert Kimber, aged 10 years, deposed that he was going home past Mr.
Ingram's horse yard and saw Lou Ingram down in the far corner of the horse yard,
lying on his back. His hat was lying about a yard from his head. He ran home and
told his mother that Mr. Ingram was dead in the horse yard. His mother then went
down.
The Coroner found that deceased had died from heart failure due to acute
dilitation.

The finding of Mr. Louis Ingram's dead body in the open paddock adjoining the

BOMBALA
=====================================
Delegate Argus and Border Post, Saturday 21 September 1901
A Bride before the Court.
ON Monday, 16th inst., Mary Davey, a newly married woman of some 17 summers, and
attired in her bridal costume appeared before the court to answer the charge of
how she became possessed of a certain silver watch and rolled gold muff chain.
George Stutchbery deposed: I am a Senior Constable of Police, and reside at
Delegate; on the 13th inst. I received a communication from the Bombala police
reporting the loss of a lady's open faced silver watch and rolled gold muff
chain from the dwelling of Joseph Law Hawk, Bombala, on or about the 3rd inst; I
proceeded to Craigie on the 13th inst., and from something I heard there I went
to see the accused at Quinburra on the following morning about 8 a.m.: I saw the
accused in a paddock at Quinburra; I said to her, "Is your name Mrs Davey?? She
replied "Yes!" I said, "When were you married?" She replied, "I was married on
the 4th, in Bombala, by Mr Mitchie." I asked her whether she was living with her
husband; she said "No; and I don't intend to live with him; I was run on to
marry him, I don't like him." I said, "Were you at Mrs Law Hawk's place when you
were in Bombala?" She replied "Yes." I said "After you left Mrs Law Hawk missed
a watch and chain in a drawer in her dressing table." She said "I have a watch,"
and she handed me the watch and chain produced; I asked her where she got it
from; she said, "A little boy was playing with it and put it in my pocket." I
then brought her to the lockup at Delegate and charged her with stealing a watch
and chain from the dwelling of Joseph Law Hawk, at Bombala, on or about the 3rd
inst.; the watch and chain produced is identical with the one stolen from Law
Hawk's residence; I now pray that the accused be remanded to Bombala, to be
dealt with as the witnesses for the prosecution reside there. Remanded
accordingly.
=====================================
Bombala Times and Monaro and Coast Districts General Advertiser, Friday 20
September 1901
Police Court.
At the Delegate Police Court on Monday, Mary Davey was charged with stealing one
watch and chain of the value of £2. the property of Joseph Law Hawk, on 3rd
inst. Senior Constable Stutchbury said he received information as to the theft
of the watch and chain on the 13th instant, and then proceeded to Quinburra
where he met the accused in a paddock. In reply to questions accused said she
was married at Bombala by Mr. Michie on the 4th instant; she was not living with
her husband, nor did she intend to live with him; she was run on to marry him
and did not like him; she was at Mrs. Law Hawk's place when in Bombala. She
handed witness a watch and chain which she said she had got from the little boy
who was playing with it. Witness then brought her to Delegate and charged her
with the theft. The accused was remanded to Bombala to be dealt with. At the
Bombala Police Court on Thursday, before Mr. J. Badgery, J.P., the case was
continued. Constable Tilney produced the Delegate depositions, warrant, and
stolen articles. Joseph Law Hawk identified the watch and chain as belonging to
his wife's sister. They were in a drawer in his bedroom on the 3rd instant. He
did not give the accused authority to take the watch and chain. Florence Law
Hawk said that on the 3rd of this month the accused was in her bedroom until
half-past nine at night. Witness identified the watch and chain as belonging to
her sister. They were in a drawer in her bedroom on the morning of the 3rd
instant. She missed the watch from the drawer next morning when she went to wind
the watch up. She wrote to accused about it on the 8th or 9th and as she
received no reply she reported the loss to her husband. Witness never gave
accused authority to take the watch. Sarah Hepburn identified the watch and
chain as her property and said she had not given anyone authority to take it
from her sister's residence. The accused pleaded not guilty and elected to be
dealt with summarily. Fined 10s in default 7 days in Bombala gaol. Watch and
chain to be returned to Joseph Law Hawk.

Description: Bega District News (NSW) August 25, 2011
TO THOSE who know Eric Carpenter, it will be no surprise to hear where he spent
his 90th birthday last week.
He was at work, in the machinery shed of Rodney Griffin Pty Ltd in Auckland
Street amid the motors, pumps, drill-bits and lathes that have been part of his
trade for 77 years.
His birthday was much like any other work day: machining, welding, re-building
engines and fixing pumps from 8am-4pm.
“I tried retiring when I was 70 but I didn’t like it,” Eric said.
“That only lasted 12 months and I’ve been working ever since, and I’ll keep
going as long as I’m fit enough.
“I reckon work doesn’t kill, dodging work kills.”
That’s something Eric could not be accused of.
Born in Bemboka in “horse and cart days”, he began work as a 13-year-old in a
machinery shop in Bairnsdale for five shillings-a-week.
War broke out five years later and Eric enlisted, serving as a non-commissioned
officer in charge of field workshops in Darwin, Lae and the infamous Markham
Valley in Papua New Guinea.
Back in Bemboka after the war, he developed a reputation for being able to fix
just about anything.
He took on a job with Stevenson’s Earthmov-ing, Bega, where he worked for more
than 30 years.
When he describes his time with the company, it’s clear he helped to shape the
landscape of the modern Bega Valley Shire.
He levelled many of Bega’s playing fields, Merimbula Airport, Bega High School,
the old RSL bowling green and Tura Beach, which was “just raw bush in the old
days”.
Eric has been at Rodney Griffin since 2002.
“A lot of things have changed around the place, probably for the better and I
guess I’ve seen a lot of those changes,” Eric said.
“But I’m still using a lot of what I learned in that Bairnsdale machinery shop.
“What I’m doing now isn’t physically too hard, I’ve got my own space so I just
tinker away.
“I think you’ve got to keep working to keep living .”
Owner of Rodney Griffin, Bruce Griffin, recalls the first time he saw Eric.
“One day I was standing right here at the counter with Dave Stevenson and Eric
walked past outside,” Bruce said.
“You see that man, Dave said, he worked for me 30 years and he was never late
for work once and he was never late to leave.
“That’s just what he’s like, you could set your clock by him.”
Bruce said Eric, whose daily tasks might include anything from panel beating to
fitting and turning, could never be replaced.
“You’ve only got to look at the work he does to see how valuable he is,” Bruce
said.
“The knowledge he’s got is just incredible and there’s no way you could get
anybody else in to do what he does.
“On top of that, he’s just an all-round nice guy.”
Through most of his working life, Eric spent his free time indulging his passion
for power boat racing.
He introduced the sport on Wallaga Lake, put on a display on Lake Burley Griffin
for the prime minister and raced competitively for 30 years.
High-speed boating is now a thing of the past, but Eric’s daughter Lanelle said
her father continued to amaze the family.
“He still drives up to the Gold Coast every year and right through Sydney,” she
said.
“A lot of his friends have passed on but friends and family are his top
priority; he likes to have a beer and go up to the club.
“And I think he’ll keep working as long as he can stand up, probably longer.”
ABC South East NSW Posted 18 August, 2016 by Bill Brown
Eric Carpenter was born in the "old Carpenter homestead" on the family's dairy
farm near Bemboka on the far-south coast of New South Wales, one of six
children.
According to his parents he was born in 1922.
"My grand-parents reckon it was 1921. I'll take '22. It makes me a year
younger," he said.
As a child Mr Carpenter experienced a rural lifestyle more like the 1800s than
the 20th century.
Travel was by horse and sulky on dirt tracks, cars were a rare luxury, travel to
Sydney was by coastal steamer, and there was no electricity.
With kerosene lamp as the only lighting the family went to bed early and rose
early.
The highlight of each week was Tuesday.
"Cattle sale one Tuesday and the following Tuesday, the pig and calf sale," Mr
Carpenter said.
"That's what we always called 'handshake day'. When all the cockys would come to
town and meet one another. They used to mainly meet at the pub."
Mr Carpenter and his younger sister would travel to Bega with their parents by
horse and sulky.
"We used to leave about five or six in the morning, and get in around 10
o'clock."
They took a route that avoided the steepest hills, but young Eric would get
impatient at the slow uphill pace, and annoy his father.
"So Dad would get out and walk beside the horse, smoking his pipe. At the top of
the hill he'd hop back in and we'd jig-jog on again."
It was an early sign of a passion for speed.
They crossed the river upstream from Bega where there was a footbridge for the
family to cross while Mr Carpenter's father would ford the river in the sulky.
"We'd unyoke the horse at the coach-house [in Bega], then Dad would go to the
sale. Mum and us kids went up the street to go shopping," Mr Carpenter said.
The family would later meet up at the Bega Family Hotel opposite the
coach-house.
"If you wanted a drink of water you'd go outside to an underground tank with a
pump, and you'd pump a bit of water. There was a mug there on a string," he
said.
"And we'd wait for Dad, he'd come in and have a drink at the bar and then join
us in the dining room [that] had big long tables with stools."
After a meal they'd yoke the horse and be back to the farm by dark.
The family moved to Bairnsdale in Victoria when, during the Great Depression,
his father got work moving cattle from the Bega district to Bairnsdale. The
journey, by horse and sulky, took the family a week.
Mr Carpenter was 13 when he started his working life "welding and machining,
lathe-work, jack of all trades and master of none".
It was the beginning of a career that was all about initiative and a desire to
learn, but without formal training.
"In those days you had to learn as things came along. There was no-one there to
teach you in a lot of cases. You learn as you go. You try to improve things," he
said.
When World War II started he joined the army and was sent to Darwin just as the
Japanese began bombing.
"It was very serious. Everything was flattened. Darwin was in a mess. Ships
upside down in the bay. You couldn't believe it yourself to see everything
flattened."
From there he was sent to New Guinea until the last year of the war when he was
injured.
"I had a bit of a mishap doing our normal round-up of Japs in those days. You go
out and you chase. Just normal routine you do every day," he said.
He was flown back to Australia and spent nine months in hospital.
After returning to Bega Mr Carpenter worked in various machinery shops and
earthmoving businesses.
He also developed a passion for roller-skating and powerboat racing.
"I used to tune all my own motors when I was racing, built my own boats, my own
motors. Just general engineering and a bit of common sense."
He finally retired when he was 70, but "didn't like it".
"I went down to Pambula to do a job and ended up nine years there. Then up to
[Bega] and I was 10 years there."
Then Mr Carpenter began work at another workshop where he is still working "here
and there".
"I'm sort of taking it a bit easy now, getting a second wind."
He said he enjoyed his working life too much to stop.
"If anything was having trouble I always liked to tinker around and try to find
out the reason why, try to rectify it, and try to get a bit more out of things,"
Mr Carpenter said.
"I've thoroughly enjoyed it all. It's something I like doing. Work doesn't kill
anyone. It's dodging I think that does the damage. Good exercise. Keeps the mind
fresh. And I'm still looking forward to doing a bit."

Eden Magnet (NSW) 26 April, 2017
Obituary: Mary Cocks' legacy to Eden
Mary Cocks - who lived in Eden for 81 of her 91 years - died in Pambula Hospital
on Friday, April 21, 2017.
Born in Cobargo on May 25, 1925, Mary was the eldest daughter of Eileen and
Vincent (Barney) Welsh.
The family moved to Eden in 1935 and Mary attended St Joseph's Convent School
Eden where she met her future husband, Lloyd Cocks. Later she became the first
student to complete an Intermediate Certificate at St Vincent’s College, Sydney.
Mary and Lloyd were married in Eden at Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church
in 1953. They had three children, Stephen, Maryanne and Damien, and eight
grandchildren. In the Magnet last year Mary and Lloyd attributed their long and
happy lives to a love of Eden and love for each other.
Mary fought for women's rights and led the cause by example in the fields of
business, politics and community service. Her family owned the Hotel Eden, now
the Great Southern Hotel, and in 1951 she became the second woman in NSW to
obtain a publican's licence. She was secretary of LW and CK Cocks, started by
Lloyd and his brother Cedric in 1948.
She joined the Eden branch of the CWA in 1953, and over her 63 year-long
membership would hold every officer bearer's role; she became the first woman to
sit on the Eden Fishermen's Recreation Club board of directors. In 1975 she
founded and became president of TREES, the Truthful Reporting of Eden's
Environment and Surroundings; she also served as a Bega Valley Shire councillor.
She was named Apex Citizen of the Year in 1979 and was honoured with an Order of
Australia in 1995.
She organised the Combined Churches’ Debutante Ball, training debutantes and
partners for more than 30 years. She worked tirelessly for the Imlay Special
Needs and Meals on Wheels, and in her latter years knitted beanies for troops in
Afghanistan.
Mary was the eldest of seven children, three of whom are still living. Monica
Woods will remember her sister as a woman of deep faith and a great organiser
with an infectious laugh. Social Justice Advocate John Liston said Mary left an
"amazing legacy of good".

AVERY/CALDWELL
From:
Helen Gray
Sent: Thursday, 8 March 2018 11:15 PM
Subject: Avery - Caldwell
Marriage in "Maffra" in 1896
Hi Ian,
It feels like I've been around the world, several times, via Monaro Pioneers,
(namely looking against the Avery name), once with information for "William
Sextus Avery marrying Catherine Jane Caldwell", but in a Bombala Church. I
was unable to obtain any information by way of the Microfilm at the NLA, under
Bombala. (but now will go back to the Microfilm, and look against Maffra
heading, or Nimitabelle).
My information at hand, was the connection with William Sextus Avery, was that
he was a Constable at Nimitybelle not long after he had trained with the
Police force in Sydney in 1895. The other appointment was also in Adaminaby
during 1897, and while there, their first baby boy was born, William Charles
Avery. (William Sextus), presumably belonging to the Goulburn Police
force, returned to Goulburn where their other five girls were born in Goulburn.
My husbands mother, Ruth Edna (Avery) Gray born 1911, youngest daughter of
William & Catherine (Caldwell) Avery.
At this point not once did I think to connect the Caldwell name with NSW, as
Catherine Jane Caldwell was born in Heathcote Victoria.
It was only last Easter when cousins were together sharing a bottle of red wine,
which had been bottled by her son from Yarra Glen Victoria. The label on
the bottle indicated that he had used grapes from the Heathcote area. It
was after that, I went "Troving" through the Heathcote newspapers. Got loads of
information about her immediate family.
And in September last year, while spending a month looking after my daughters
home in Melbourne, all alone, I joined the Scotland Association of Family
History Societies, and was able to get an understanding of the Caldwells in the
Paisley, Renfrewshire Scotland. Found that Catherine Jane Caldwell's
mother was easier to track down, as her name was "Charlotte Kennedy Smith" and
that she married a William Caldwell, but, not so for - William
Caldwell born in 1827 --- as there were so many William Caldwells, I had no
success matching him to his parents. At one stage I came across a Janet
Gray who was married to a John Caldwell, but dismissed that at once, as I had
Williams death certificate, and it stated that his father was yet another
William.
It Puzzled me why a young man who had been born in Coleraine Victoria -
would end up travelling through Nimitabelle to get to Sydney to join the NSW
Police Force.
After William Sextus Avery's mother died in Coleraine in 1887, William Sextus
Avery left Colaraine and in 1894 along with Catherine Jane Caldwell was on the
move again, why Bombala? I did come across the John and Janet (Gray)
Caldwell family on your Monaro Pioneers website, and within that family who had
settled at Bobundarah near Cooma. And they have on their tree a son
William born 1827 but without any information.
So from Dec 2017 when I downloaded a copy of their family, until now and
looking at the Avery - Caldwell marriage, which doesn't mentions Bombala at all,
but the date and place being - 7 October 1896 at Maffra, according to the rights
of the Church of England. William Sextus Avery has listed his birthplace
as (Mulwala - but I am thinking this is incorrect). The next believable
information, that of Usual Occupation being "Police Constable", residence,
Nimmitybelle, that his father was a "Painter" (but deceased). And for Catherine
Jane Caldwell, residence, ?Maffra?, fathers occupation, (I am unable to
distinguish - (still living) - (was a gold miner in Heathcote, and before that,
in Scotland a weaver).
So your website has been most useful, in identifying the Officiating Minister
and the two witnesses present. That being Minister - Canon Ross Edwards;
witnesses presence: Bridget Roach and PW Jenkins.
Would it be possible if you could please, arrange for me, contact details of a
living member of the Caldwell family that would be willing to meet with me?
I feel more confident that I've finally found the missing link. Hopefully,
this meeting maybe able to connect the dots of their William Caldwell, born
1827.
Looking forward to a favourable outcome.
Helen Gray alias (MayGray)
Hi Helen,
Looks like you are correct, I found the following death registration for William
Caldwell in Victoria (Mother Janet Gray, father William Caldwell). Given
the notorious unreliability of DC information on parents, I suggest you
investigate this further....
As for family contacts, I recommend you put your request on our Facebook page
which is proving to be a remarkably successful vehicle for connecting people.

Description: Othell died on 15 October in a tragic accident...this is the
article from the Daily Mercury on his death...
Maitland Daily Mercury – 16 October 1917
Railway fatality at Lochinvar - At about 5o'clock last evening a sad fatality
occurred at the Lochinvar railway station, Othol Byrne railway porter at the
Lochinvar station, being the victim (writes our Lochinvar correspondent) . It is
believed that Byrne was attemptlng to board a moving coal train on his way home
to Allandale, when he missed his footing and fell on the line badly cut and
bruised. He lay on the line for a little time, when a railway carpenter, named
O'Brien, was the first to notice him, as he walked along some little time
afterwards. Byrne was carried into the waiting room and his wounds dressed and
attended to until a doctor arrived From Maitland. The Injuries were of a
serious nature. Byrne was severely cut about the head and body and one hand was
almost torn off. He had been porter at the Lochinvar railway station for only a
short time, and was a quiet, unassuming, hardworking young fellow, very popular
with everyone. Dr. Baruher was summoned from West Maitland when the accident
occurred, but the injured man expired before he reached Lochinvar. The remains
were removed to the morgue at West Maitland Hospital, whence the funeral will
move from tomorrow morning. At the time of the accident, the night officer (Mr.
John S. Jones) and Messrs. George Dean and O'Brien were on the platform. He was
about 19 years of age, and was the second eldest son of Mr. Wm. Byrne, dairy
farmer, of Allandale. The unfortunate young fellow succumbed to the injuries
very soon.
