THE GARDNER FAMILY OF ROUCHELBROOK 1840-1958

The late heads of the family were Enniskillen born in the County Fermanagh Northern Ireland, as were five of their children, four children of a first marriage – Mary born 1822, Eliza born 1828, William Irwin born 1831, Ann time of birth unknown, and James son of second marriage, born 1840. Children born after reaching Australia were John and sister Jennie. The years of births of John and Jennie are unknown to writer. The maiden names of the two Mrs. Gardners unknown by the present generations. But it is believed the first Mrs. Gardner’s maiden name was Irwin, Irvin or Irvine, as one or other of those names was given in the Christian names of at least seven of her descendants. [Some family records indicate that William’s second wife was Elizabeth Burnside. Shipping records show William, Elizabeth and 4 children listed together. Mary is not included in this list; she appears to be old enough to have been included amongst a group of single women, unnamed but counted, on board the ship. There were two other Gardner families on board, also from County Fermanagh] However the original Gardner [William] with his second wife [Elizabeth] and five children came to Australia 13 February 1842. The boat [Broom – shipping records research] called at Glasgow and before sailing from that port a Mrs. Morrison came to the wharf and said she lived in the Candlerigs and asked the head of the family would he please deliver a letter to her son John Morrison, saying that he was sure to see him as he had some time previously sailed for Australia. At that time it appeared as though at least some of the people in the home countries [sic] must have thought Australia was somebody’s back yard. The letter was addressed to John Morrison Australia. However extensive as Australia is, strange though it may seem, the letter was delivered to John Morrison, the rightful owner. When the family disembarked in Sydney and started to travel north they seemed to realise that Australia was a pretty extensive country and by the time they arrived in Muswellbrook in June or July 1843 had practically given up hopes of finding the addressee but after being in Muswellbrook some time the son, William, came home one day and said “I believe I have found the whereabouts of John Morrison”, so investigations were made and John Morrison was found working as engineer for people by name Chivers who owned and were operating a tweed factory in the building at the dead end of what is now Mill Street, at present occupied by the Commercial Freezing Company Ltd for the purpose of freezing rabbits. This building was opened as a tweed factory in 1841, it is at least 117 years old and still very solid. The said letter was delivered and a friendship struck up between the recipient and the Gardner family and later [1st December 1845 – BDM records] John Morrison and Eliza Gardner became man and wife. The Gardner family shifted to Aberdeen and as far as it is known the heads of the family also lived in Scone, for it was there that the original Gardner died and was buried in the St. Luke’s Churchyard at the corner of Hill and Liverpool Streets Scone. A headstone was ordered to mark the spot and was cut and completed at Thornthwaite 12 miles west of Scone. The stone was being brought to Scone by dray and when crossing the Middle Brook about ¾ of a mile from its

destination was broken, there was never another stone made to replace it. The ground was cleared for the erection of the present St. Luke’s and the church was erected in 1888, over his grave. [see page 41] There is no mark to verify this on the church. In 1896 whilst standing near the intersection of Hill and St. Aubins Streets I heard his daughter Jenny say whilst looking towards the church, “What a wonderful monument to my father”. She then went on to give details mentioned above. MARY GARDNER: the oldest of the Gardner family married John McMullin and for some time resided at Oswald on the Hunter River between Greta and Lochinvar, where most of her family were born. The McMullins later shifted to Rouchel Brook and settled at Bingeberrie, at present the home of two of their grandchildren, Reg and Jack McMullin. Later they shifted to what is now Brooklyn but at that time it was called Half Moon because of the bend in the Brook and the road. The old lady occupied a cottage on the place, which she called Oswald Cottage. The cottage was rebuilt some years after her death and is still known as Oswald Cottage, situated on a hill near George McMullin’s woolshed. George is present owner of Brooklyn. John and Mary McMullin nee Gardner raised a family of eight – two sons and six daughters, viz. William, John, Elizabeth, Mary, Sarah, Beckie, Emma and Ellen. Family of Mary McMullin (nee Gardner) to 1958. 1. William G. McMullin born 1868, late owner of Brooklyn, Brookdale, Cockcrow and also a property known as Sandy Creek Paddock now owned by Allan Bell.

3. Reg McMullin born 1894, living on part of Bingeberrie. Until a few years ago owner of Bridgelands and Keans Creek, but now sold to a man named Campbell, and later bought a property part of Martindale estate near Denman. Married Jenny Campbell of Arden Hall now deceased. Reg was for a time manager for M. Campbell and Co. Rouchel store. One daughter. 4. John McMullin born 1897, resides on part of Bingeberrie Rouchel and owns Broad Gully on Back Creek Rouchel. Married Miss Logan, Lower Rouchel. One daughter, Ann.

6. Amy McMulllin married ---- Burgess. Now deceased. Her late husband at one time managed the Aberdeen and Rouchel stores for M. Campbell and Co. and later was in business as storekeeper at Currabubula. At the time of his death was the Accountant at Campbell’s Garages Pty. Ltd. Muswellbrook. Three daughters. 3. Elizabeth McMullin – married Donald Cameron, resided on a property I think Glenerne (now owned by Jim Carter) about 17 ½ miles from Aberdeen at Upper Rouchel. After the death of Donald Cameron Elizabeth carried on on the property that was later occupied by her son Bill, now deceased. Elizabeth raised a family of three sons and three daughters, as follows: 1. Lucy Cameron born 1866, married Alex Thomas of Scone and later of Walgett district. No details of family. 2. John Cameron – a school teacher, was at one time stationed at Red Range in the Glen Innes district. No details of family. 3. Alexander Cameron – married Bertha Wilkinson of Carrow Creek in the Singleton area. Had a property at Redbank Belltrees, later Bridgelands Rouchel and still later a property at Narrabri. Alex was a noted cricketer, second only to his brother Bill. 4. Mary Cameron – married George Wilkinson of Carrow Brook in the Singleton district. Three or four in family. 5. Roubens Cameron [BDM shows a Robina, no Roubens] – married Claude Wilkinson of Mullee Davis Creek, later went to live in Queensland where her husband passed away. Roubens is still alive and I think is residing in Dalby Queensland. No details of family. 6. William Cameron – married Muriel Miller of Rouchel Public School. Bill as he was called represented Upper Hunter electorates in the House of Assembly for upwards of 12 years and was still a member at the time of his death. For a time was Chairman of the Public Works Committee NSW Parliament. Bill went to the Boer War and was later chosen as one of the NSW representatives at the coronation of King Edward VII in 1902. He was also a cricketer of some note. Although he never played in test cricket, it was said by not a few that he was fit for it as an all-rounder. Whilst playing with an Upper Hunter team in Howe Park, Singleton against a Sydney team he hit seventeen sixes off seventeen consecutive balls, that would be 102 off less than three overs, a pretty good effort. On another occasion whilst playing in Muswellbrook he opened his shoulders and hit a ball right out of the old showground, the ball was found in Scone a distance of 16 miles. Fact is it landed in an open railway truck attached to a goods train passing at the time. The ball was found in the truck when it reached Scone and sent back to Muswellbrook. No evidence to say if the game was held up pending the return of the ball. Bill also played in county cricket whilst on the Coronation tour in England. His highest score was in a county against county match was 250. When reminded of the feat on his return he calmly said, “It was county cricket, not test”.

In his younger days he was an employee at M.C. McKenzie store Aberdeen, he also had a selection at Redbank near Belltrees. One of his sons, Neil, occupies a soldier settlement block on Belltrees between Belltrees and Moonan Flat. Bill’s widow lives in Sydney. Bill Cameron was buried on the Rouchel and had a very large and representative funeral including representatives from State government departments. It has often been said that Bill Cameron was a friend to many and often gave away more than he could afford. So it is little wonder that many of his acquaintances at the end said “farewell old friend”. 4. Mary Ann McMullin – married Kenneth Cameron, Davis Creek and had a family of four sons and two daughters, as follows: 1. Helen Cameron born 1875 [BDM lists her as Ellen] – married Duncan Cumming. Now deceased. Her family still carry on the properties Stellenbosch, Elbow Creek, Malumla and their late father’s property on Keans Creek. One son Ross served in World War II and a daughter Dora was a Nursing Sister during World War II in the AIF abroad. She took part in the evacuation from Crete and was mentioned in dispatches.

2. Don Cameron – married Miss Doors of Mullee, Davis Creek. In his younger days was employed by the late George Watts of Malumla and later at Ellerston near the head of the Hunter River. From there he enlisted in the Light Horse and served in the Boer War. He contracted Enteric Fever and was invalided home. He later re-enlisted and sailed as a Lieutenant. He was reported missing after the Zend River Battle, but turned up after the relief of Ladysmith or Mafeking, having been a prisoner of war. He resided on the Rouchel and at the outbreak of World War I he enlisted and sailed to the Middle East in charge of the 12th Light Horse with the rank of Major. During hostilities he was promoted in the field to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel DSO and later received a Bar. He returned home and resided on part of his father’s property on the Rouchel side and later acquired Stellenbosch, Elbow Creek and Malumla as well as his father’s property on Davis Creek and Rouchel. At a function given in Sydney in honour of the visit of General Allenby, who had commanded the British forces during the campaign in the Middle East, General Allenby said, “If Colonel Cameron is in the room will he please come forward”, so the long lean Colonel strode up (He stood almost 6 ft 4 ins) and was personally thanked by the General for the part he played in the campaign, especially the historic Charge of Beersheba, which he led. It was always said of him in his orders he would say come, not go and always placed himself right in the front. It has been said and I think written that the Charge of Beersheba so demoralised the enemy that it hastened the end of the war, anyway as far as the Middle East was concerned. Later he disposed of Stellenbosch, Elbow Creek and Malumla to his sister Helen, who was married to Duncan Cumming. Their family still carry it on. Donald was also on Home Defence during World War II and he had one son, Dick who was in the forces during World War II. Don retained the Davis Creek and Rouchel properties portions of his late father’s. His widow still carries on since his death a few years ago at an age I’d say near the 80 mark. 3. Elsie Cameron born 1879, married Walter Lonsdale who at one time was in business as a

storekeeper at Nundle. They are now living retired at Back Creek. No particulars of family.

4. Allan Cameron born 1881, married Martha Kennedy of Back Creek Rouchel and purchased a property known as Hartney’s on Back Creek. A couple of years ago he sold out and is now living retired in Muswellbrook. A son, Douglas, was killed in Action during World War II. Allan had at least two daughters, one of whom is a Mrs. Turner.

5. Kenneth Cameron born 1884. Do not know his wife’s maiden name. He manages a station somewhere in Queensland. No particulars of the family. Kenneth served in World War I. 6. Malcolm Cameron As far as I know never married and at one time put in some time in New Guinea and nearby islands but is now in Queensland. Also a World War I veteran.

5. Sarah McMullin – married Thomas Caban, a native of Wollombi, who had a property on Davis Creek, Poplar Valley. They had three sons and two daughters, as follows: 1. Irvine/Irwin Caban born 1874, is now deceased. He carried on on his late father’s property in partnership with his brother Freeman. They also had property bought from Belltrees Estate, situated at Red Bank. Later Poplar Valley was sold and Irwin shifted to somewhere on the South Coast, where he passed away. I believe his widow still lives on the South Coast. Her maiden name was Fernifil. 2. Freeman Caban [William Freeman in BDM] – born 1879, married Maude Radnidge, who is now deceased, they had a family of one son, Edwin and three daughters. Freeman and his son still carry on on a place on Davis Creek purchased from Ravensworth North Estate

about 1903. They still hold the Red Bank property. Freeman, who is now about 80, has been a member of the Upper Hunter Pastoral and Agricultural Society Muswellbrook since shortly after leaving school. If he is not the oldest member I think he would hold the longest membership. About the beginning of the present century he managed Miranee near Gundy for the late W.T. Seaward, later managed the Puddledock Estate near Ellerston for the Estate of the late James Pinkerton. He is also a judge of stock and for a good many years carried on in that capacity for various shows and rodeo events throughout the state. His daughters’ names and particulars are unknown. 3. Ada Caban born 1881, married W. Pinkerton of Gum Flat, Gundy and is now deceased. No particulars of the family, only that they exhibited with success in the horse section at Upper Hunter shows. 4. Edgar Caban born 1883, married a Miss Harper from Scone and joined the NSW Police Force and went through all the ranks. At the time of his death he was living as a retired Superintendent of Police somewhere on the North Coast. It was said of him even before his death or retirement that he was a gentleman of the Police Force and always gave everyone under him, irrespective of rank, a fair and just hearing. Edgar had a son who served in World War II. 5. Edith Caban – married Bill Hewston of Singleton and later lived on Moobi Road Scone. No particulars of family. [BDM also shows two unnamed babies, born in 1875 and 1877.]

6. Beckie McMullin married Billy Madden and resided at Davis Creek. I know of a family of three – one son and two daughters, as follows: 1. Florence Madden born 1890. No particulars are known. 2. Grace Madden born 1892. No particulars are known. 3. Sidney Madden born 1895. He joined the Police Force and is now living as a retired Sergeant of Police at Bondi where he was last stationed.

4. William E Madden born 1899. [Found in BDM, not listed by MHB who commented that there may be more in the family than the first three.]

7. Emma McMullin married Andy Pinkerton of Fanborough Gundy and later kept an hotel at Nundle. They had a family of at least four, one son and three daughters, as follows:

the Gardner family somehow, but the origin is unknown by the present generation. No particular of her marriage or family. I have an idea there are more members of this family but not certain.

8. Ellen McMullin – the youngest and only survivor of family of Mary McMullin nee Gardner. She now lives in Scone with daughters Bella and Ellie and is now in her 93rd year and still retains her faculties. But she says she getting a bit forgetful.

Ellie Jones – Lives in Scone, still single. End of details as far as is known of the descendants of the original Gardner family through their daughter Mary.

************************************

ELIZA GARDNER: born in County Fermanagh Northern Ireland in 1828, she came to Australia with her parents about 1840 and on to Muswellbrook in 1843, in June or July. She said they arrived in Muswellbrook two days before the death of Lewis Ward (?), whose tomb is in the Catholic Cemetery Muswellbrook. In checking on this the date of Lewis Ward’s death is given as July 1843. Eliza in her single days was in the services of the late “Boshie” Nowland who kept an hotel in Bridge Street Muswellbrook just where the Commercial Banking Co. of Sydney Ltd. now stands. One of her duties she used to tell about was to keep her employer apprised as to the time of day, so she said “Boshie” would call, “Eliza please see what time it is.” This entailed a jaunt to a store kept by one Stringhaul situated where Coroneo’s Niagara Café now stands. After looking at his clock, which, fortunately, could be seen from the footpath, she would return and tell him the time. One day one of his customers said, “Nowland why don’t you buy a clock and save all this trouble?” His reply was “I won’t have anything about the place that won’t breed”. So the jaunts still went on. Eliza married John Morrison and went into residence at the Tweed Factory in rooms since demolished. At least one and probably two daughters were born there, Mary and Margaret. Mary was born in September 1848 and was the first child baptised in what is now the old Presbyterian Church in Hill Street, now used as a Sunday School and meeting place. The Morrisons then shifted to Aberdeen where John Morrison operated the Flour Mill and where a third daughter was born on April 4th 1851, named Elizabeth. Incidentally the same year as Hargraves found the first payable

gold in the colonies. John Morrison carried on with the Mill till his death in Maitland Hospital in 1852 caused by the effects of a broken leg and was buried in the East Maitland cemetery on the road leading from East Maitland to Morpeth. The Mill was on the old stone roller system and I believe the old machinery in the old building is still intact. The old building can be seen quite close to the railway line and stands between the railway line and the road leading from Aberdeen to Rouchel. It is said to probably be the only one on the stone roller system now standing intact in the world. It hasn’t produced flour for at least the last 69 years. It was the job of one or two of the children to feed the mill from the top floor by means of a scraper. The children were so small that they had to wear safety belts as a precaution against going in with the wheat. After the death of her husband Eliza married a man by name William Walker and two more daughters were born, Emma and Ellen. William Walker was burned to death whilst on a droving trip somewhere in the Dirrinbandi district in south western Queensland and was buried there. After the death of her second husband Eliza for a time conducted a store in Aberdeen and later resided with members of her family at Rouchel, Aberdeen and Muswellbrook. She died at Muswellbrook in 1915 aged 87 years. [Note from Margaret – when in Muswellbrook she lived at Rosebrook on the Wybong Road. Grandfather, MHB, claimed that she sat “at the corner of the round table”.] It has been said of Eliza Gardner that during the time she conducted a store in Aberdeen she helped many a lame dog over a stile, including the late Sir John Robertson, the father of the Free Selection Act, one time Premier of NSW and after whom the Robertson, first a State and now a Federal Electorate, was named. Another was the late THH Goodwin, one time resident of Scone and later owner of Pooloocooroo, a property in the Curlewis district, where he carried on wheat and sheep farming in a fairly big way. The help was real and genuine. Family of Eliza Morrison (nee Gardner) to 1958. 1. Margaret Morrison[though spelled this way here, MHB always insisted that she was Margret] – whom I believe was the eldest daughter of Eliza, believed to be born in Muswellbrook. Age not certain. [Born c. 1846] She married George Lambert and had two children, one son and one daughter, John and Ettie. They lived for a time on the opposite side of Rouchel Brook from Halls Flat, 9 ½ miles on the Rouchel Road leading from Aberdeen. I believe Margaret died and was buried in Main Camp Cemetery, Rouchel. Later her husband and the two children shifted and had a farm at Lower Belford some miles down the river from Singleton. George Lambert lost the sight of both his eyes, but still carried on on the farm for a number of years with the help of his two children. He once said he believed it paid a farmer to lose his crop by flood once in a while as the flooding of the ground, although it brought a lot of rubbish, enriched the land to almost double its producing power. 1. John Lambert – married Miss Bergman, cousin of Bishop Bergman of Goulburn. He

carried on farming in the Belford area and later worked in coal mines at Greta. He also had a wine (?) licence for a time at Harpers Hill between Greta and Lochinvar. Later he was an employee of Maitland Council. Some time about 1946 he died in Maitland as a result of being knocked down by a motor car. His widow still lives in Maitland. They raised a family of about four sons, of whom Fred served in the Islands in World War II.

[This is incorrect – it was Fred’s brother John Lambert, NX126521. He died of peritonitis and was buried in the Lae Cemetery, NG, 26.7.1945. Information provided by his niece, Sylvia Hamblin, May 2016]

2. Ettie Lambert – whose Christian name I believe is Harriette, married Bill Chalk, then employed by one McDouell, at the then Glendon Butter and Milk preserving factory, also situated down the river from Singleton in the Scotts Flat area. Ettie has a family of three or four, one of her children was killed in William Street Sydney as the result of being run over by a car in which the actress Miss Muriel Starr was a passenger. That would be about 1915 not sure. Ettie has passed her 80th birthday and is at the present time as far as I know in Boddington Red Cross Hospital, Wentworth Falls but looks on her home as Sydney with a daughter Ivy, Mrs. Smith, who lives at Kingsford, a Sydney suburb.

2. Mary Ann Morrison – second daughter of Eliza Gardner, born Muswellbrook September 1848. Spent her child and girlhood days at Muswellbrook, Aberdeen, Rouchel and at Oswald with the McMullin family. In her girlhood days she did shepherding for her uncle, the late William Gardner of Rose Vale, Lower Rouchel and used to take the sheep as far away as what is known as The Needles. In January 1867 she married William Bridge, a native of Wollombi and for a time resided in Aberdeen. Then on Davis Creek and later at Bridgelands Upper Rouchel. Land selected by her husband and son John, in all about 1280 acres. When John had completed his 5 years residence he transferred his portion to his father. When William Bridge lost his place through financial difficulties, she left with her husband and family and went to live for a while in Scone. This was in 1896, then to Gundy for a couple of years then back to Scone and in 1900 to Blandford till 1905 when they shifted to Muswellbrook, where they remained till about 1923. The couple then went to Scone and lived with their daughter, Mrs. George Budden [Ellen Eliza Bridge]. In January 1927 the pair celebrated the Diamond Jubilee of their marriage. Mary was noted for her handwriting, even up to the end her handwriting would be classed as copperplate. However at the time of her death in April 1927, she would be writing for at least 76 years. As I have heard her mother say, Mary could recite the Lords Prayer and also write it at the age of 3 years. Out of the births of 17 children twelve were reared. The youngest, Archie, was 36 years of age when the first break came by the death of the second son, William, who died at Goondiwindi in 1931 in his 62nd year. Strange though it may seem yet it is a fact, the twelve never were together at one time. I think that may be a record at least with the descendants of the Gardners. The family consisted of nine sons , three daughters. Five children were still born including one twin. [This appears to be not quite correct. Two died as infants – John Morrison 1 and Mary Ann. In most family records 14 births are listed including these two. It may be that there were three still births. The twin who died was twin to Percy Alwyn] 1. John Morrison Bridge – born at Aberdeen, 1868, went with parents to Rouchel and took up a selection which he afterwards transferred to his father. He did knock about jobs mostly horsebreaking combined with a bit of horseracing. One good horse he owned was a gelding, by name of Sylva, bred by the late James Campbell of Arden Hall, Gundy and was by a horse named Zeno. I don’t know the dam. I don’t think there would be many about who would remember the horse since the passing of the late Al Gray, Harry Harper and Fred Watters. Oliver Snell and Alf Harper may remember him. Jack Bridge went to Manilla in the mid 1890’s and there carried on a butchering business for some time, he later went to Lismore and also carried on butchering, that would be in 1897. He there married Mona Davis, and they had one daughter. He put in most of the remainder

of his life about Lismore with the exception of a few years in Queensland in the St.

George district. Then again returned to Lismore and later again to St. George where he died in 1953, aged 85 years. His last visit to the Hunter was in 1917. Jack left some great grandchildren, they are in the 7th generation of Gardner stock in Australia.

1. Mary Morrison Bridge married ---- Iveli. Living in Lismore in 1958. 2. William Thomas Bridge – born Aberdeen, 1870. In his younger days he worked about Rouchel doing various types of work but mostly as a builder. He also had a racehorse by name Leslie by Speculator bred by the late Billy Madden. He won a race in Aberdeen and was disqualified for having previously run on an unregistered course. It was said that the horse that was given the prize had also run at the unregistered meeting, but the committee had the final say so that just about wound up his days as a racing man.

One of the buildings he worked on as a builder is now occupied by Frazer Adams at Willowburn Upper Rouchel. That building was erected in 1895 and was erected to house

the late -.N. Wilson, free Presbyterian minister of that area, which took in Stewarts Brook, Rouchel and Goorangoola – he later went to the Warwick district in Queensland

to work for the late Harry Batterham who took up country in that district. He also was horse driver on –elltown Station in Queensland where the horse paddock was a mere 20,000 acres. He depended on his saddle horse to find the draught horses. He later went to Lismore and worked on the building and joinery work of the Hotel Ryan. He made and built the staircase in that building, when the hotel was remodelled the same staircase was preserved and is said to be still in use. The hotel was originally built in 1900. He erected the first Municipal Sale yards built in Lismore. Bill then returned to Queensland and put in a good part of his time about Dalby. He made one trip back to the Hunter in 1914. He worked for the late – Barrett on the erection of the Butter Factory for A.C. & F. Co in Aberdeen. After that he went back to Queensland and put in most of his time about Goondiwindi, Nindy Gully and Dirranbandi. He never came back to Hunter. At one time whilst working on a Queensland station one of the station hands died, owing to wet weather and floods. It was practically impossible to get a coffin to the place so the station owner, knowing that Bill was a carpenter and master of the adze, said, “Bill will you have a look around and see if you can find anything you can fashion a coffin from, if so try and make one”. The best he could find was some split slabs in the wall of an out building, so he went to work with adze and what other few tools could be found about the place and made a coffin, when it was finished the boss and all hands said that it was a coffin that if anyone who knew it would be proud to rest in it. In 1910 Bill took a job at Tenterfield with a Telegraph contractor to run a telephone wire to Tabulum, when that was completed, Bill with the same contractors, by name Coleman, ran a copper wire from Wallangarra to Tamworth. The line was part of a wire from Brisbane to Sydney. The mode of getting from camp to work was on foot. Walk to work in the boss’s time and home in your own time. The camp being at Tenterfield, the walk to Wallangarra was 11 miles. The wire was then run towards Tenterfield and by knock off time had covered about 6 miles, leaving a walk of 5 miles to camp and so it went on. Then the next section, from Muswellbrook to Sydney, with a gang working from each end. They met at Greta. The next telegraph job he took was with a gang to run a line of poles north from Newcastle and that was the first telephone erected through the Hexham swamps. The other telephone and telegraph lines are along the railway embankment. This one being for the Railway Dept., was put along the railway fence. The method of getting the poles up was to point the butts, affix guy ropes to the pole, stand pole up and rock same by means of pikes and guy ropes, rock the pole until it sunk to required depth. Some spots didn’t

need any rocking, at least one pole when stood up went straight down to about nine feet instead of the usual five feet. Bill died and was buried in Goondiwindi in 1931 ages 61 years. He never married. 3. Donald Irwin Bridge – born Aberdeen, 1872. After leaving school, was one day in Aberdeen with the late Jim Smith who had a dray and 3 or 4 horses. The team was left standing while some business was being transacted. A train passed, the horses took fright and bolted. When Don was seen on the dray he was called on to jump off and so doing had the misfortune to break a leg and put in some time in the old hospital in Sowerby Street Muswellbrook. After his recovery he was employed in M.C. McKenzie’s branch store at Manilla under the management of the late Alfred Stafford, that would be in the late 1880’s, for a start wages 2/6 per week and keep. About 1891 was transferred to the Aberdeen store and later worked for W.I. Gardner Jnr. who had the Rouchel store, from there he went to Narrabri and worked in Barry and Staffords store and later in the late John Gately’s store in the same town. From there he went to Gunnedah with brother Andy and opened a store. Whilst there the brothers made an attempt to start a flour mill and after a lot of knock backs through financial difficulties lost the store. In 1904 however a company was formed under the name North Western Milling Co. but their share in that venture was very small. Don returned to Narrabri and worked in the hardware department in Barry and Staffords till the head of the store decided to get out and the head of each department took over their own department. However Don carried on for some time, but that also appeared to be beyond his financial status. After that he carried on for some years as a commission agent and from there went to Sydney and worked in the baths and sinks department in Grace Bros. Broadway store. He stayed there till well on the shady side of 80, when they retired him. He married Annie Malone of Narrabri in 1899. His widow lives at Rose Bay.

commission work. It was he who was the instigator of the shift of the licence from Howes Hotel in Maitland Street Gunnedah to the present Club House Hotel in Connadilly street. He also was the mover in the cutting up of Mornington Estate on the opposite side of the Railway from the original town and like the flour mill and hotel got precious little out of it, his brains, someone else’s profit. It was said that he carried his office in his vest pocket. He married Sarah Schofield of Nundle in 1895. Andy was killed in 1936 as the result of being knocked down by a boy on a push bike at the intersection of Connadilly and Abbot Streets, Gunnedah, aged 62 years.

He then returned to Moree as a debt collector for Barry and Stafford. When this ended he took a job with the Singer Sewing Machine Co., that would be in 1905. He represented the said firm in Inverell and Manilla districts as salesman and collector. After that he went to Sydney and worked at the Eveleigh Railway Workshops and later to Chullora as storeman and during this time handled all the material that passed through the Chullora works in connection with the electrification of the Sydney Electric trains service, as far as the book and pencil was concerned.

Centennial picnic held in one of Rouchel Vale’s paddocks adjoining Jim Carter’s Oakfield property on January 26th 1888. I was then about 4 ½ years old. I well remember part of a speech made at that gathering by the late John Miller of Back Creek. I mentioned lately that my long distance memory was good and my short distance memory not so good. Was told it would be better to forget the long distance stuff. However I think if my long distance memory was cut off I couldn’t write what I’m writing at the present time. I refer to the history of the Gardner family which is at least 99% fact. What bit of schooling had was at Rouchel, Brushy Hill, Davis Creek and Gundy schools. All put together wouldn’t be anything like 3 years. I never saw the inside of a school until I was at least 9 ½ years old and certainly none after passing 14. What I got was only broken time. Until I was 20 years old I did odd jobs of station work then went to Gunnedah and from

there to Inverell to Singer Sewing Machine Co., then Guyra and Muswellbrook for same people, went back to Gunnedah to work in a flour mill, from there took on driving a steam traction engine mostly carting timber from a sawmill in Trinkey scrub halfway between Curlewis and Tambar Springs. I carted for the Tambar Springs Police Station and Court House for the late Thomas Bowen, owner of the mill and traction engine. We had a rake of 4 waggons hitched to engine and after the timber would be cut for cottages in Gunnedah would load a whole cottage and take it to its destination, often before the load was off the framework of the cottage would be standing up. Then in about April 1909, I contracted enteric fever. After coming out of hospital I came to Muswellbrook, then went and worked at Randwick Park doing irrigation work till 1912. I then married Annie Bush of Denman and in 1912 shifted to Muswellbrook and worked for the late Walter Barrett at his joinery works as a stoker and later making ice, however left there in 1916 and took the job for Singer Sewing Machine Co in Muswellbrook district. Was also for a time selling Griffiths Teas. Then in 1920 when rabbits and their skins were a good price I took on the game of trapper and poisoner and in about 1925 started at St. Helliers Colliery as stoker and finished up there in mid 1930 when the Colliery closed down, almost, owing to slackness of trade in the depression years so went back to the rabbits till 1935, when I bought a mail and rabbit run between Muswellbrook and Wybong. Carried on at this and sold out in 1944, then worked on Aluinn Horse Stud near Roxburgh and owing to a bit of a decline in health left there in 1954. Whilst working for the late Walter Barrett he offered to build me a cottage. He said “You buy the land and give me the deeds on mortgage and I’ll build the house. When you go in pay me a pound a week, interest 7%, adjustable yearly” and he later rose my wages to assist me to pay. The price of the house was 357 pounds, land 40 pounds. The cottage contains 2 12x18 rooms, 2 12 x 14 rooms, a 12 x 12 kitchen, front and side verandahs, back verandah, 12 x 14 bathroom and bath, kitchen fitted with stove. What price today. I shifted into it on 9 August, 1914 and am still in it. The marriage produced three children – one son and two daughters. 1. Heather Jean Bridge – born 9th February 1914. After leaving school worked in the

Muswellbrook Chronicle office from about 1929 till her marriage in 1940 with the

exception of two small breaks whilst nursing at Maitland Hospital and a time in the Commonwealth Bank. [Actually she worked at the Commonwealth Bank after her marriage, during World War II] That would be two occasions at the Chronicle office. The proprietor introduced her as the best writer in the town and it was at times her job in the absence of the editor to get the paper set up and got out. The proprietor said she did a wonderful job. Married Alex (Tecca) Ashford of Scone, member of the staff of Pitt, Son and Keene, Auctioneers, Scone. 1. Dianne Heather Ashford – now aged 14 2.

Went to Middle East as reinforcements to 2/1 Battalion and was away for about 2½ years. On the journey home from the Middle East his lot the 16th Brigade were put off in Ceylon for 4 months jungle training. Then home for a short while and on to New Guinea, he crossed the Owen Stanley ranges with the brigade and was invalided back from Wyropee to Lux Lane Hospital near Port Moresby and from there back to Australia. Later he and 3 others, a Lieutenant and Percy were made Acting Sergeant. He was already a Corporal, the two others as far as I know were privates. Their mission was to go to Mauroki in west New Guinea and instruct the Dutch in the art of jungle warfare. After that he returned to Australia and was later discharged after being in the army for a couple of days over 5 years. Then joined the staff at the Subway Garage where he was the spare parts man for 5 or 6 years till the sale of the place to Caltex.

After leaving school he took on various jobs, mostly in shearing sheds, then he learned to shear and did shearing in the northwest and about Muswellbrook. He was also employed by a butcher named Delaney at Gunnedah. After that he did mostly short trips of droving, I think his longest trip was to Molong with sheep. When war broke out in 1914 he with others was employed in Muswellbrook getting horses ready to be sent to the Middle East. In all about 20,000 horses were got ready in Muswellbrook, it being the main depot. About the end of the war years, about

1918, he went to Sydney and there joined the Tramway service being attached to Waverley depot as a conductor and later as a driver from the Enfield depot. In 1944 his health failed and he had to give up the job after being five months in Prince Alfred hospital and five months at home in Enfield he passed away on May 6, 1945, making 3 deaths in the Bridge family in one day less than a year.

worked for Davis and Fehon in a motor garage and service station. Then for Halsteds of Darlinghurst as a driver. Halsted was one of the first to run hire cars in Sydney. Then Tewkesbury started the Delux motor service. Percy was one of his first drivers. In 1916 he enlisted and saw a couple of years service in France as a driver in the Australian Artillery, at that time horse drawn. He was in London on leave when the Armistice was signed and of course was able to take part in the rejoicings in that the world’s greatest city. The Armistice took effect at 11 o’clock on the 11th day of the 11th month, 1918. As far as actual fighting was concerned that was the end of World War I. After he returned he joined the Yellow Cab Service in Sydney which the same Tewkesbury founded. 65 years ago Mr. Tewkesbury was jeweller in Muswellbrook. When the yellow cabs were offered for sale to the drivers he didn’t take his on so he then went driving tourist coaches for Day and Hughes. Their depot was at the corner of Liverpool and College Streets, almost opposite the Emden Gun in Hyde Park. Then he later transferred to Hastings Deering in William Street where he still works, chiefly as a messenger and does the banking etc. After his return from the war he married Elsie Miller, now deceased, then residing in Womerah (?) Avenue, Darlinghurst. They raised a family of two, one son and one daughter. 1. Alwyn Bridge – is married and lives in Maroubra, employed by Hastings Deering at their works at Camperdown. His job is in the spare parts. 2. Aileen Bridge – is a window dresser at Woolworths, Bondi Junction, been employed there just on 20 years. She is still single. 10.

He also did short droving trips and later drove a baker’s cart, mostly on the outskirts of Muswellbrook for the Muswellbrook Bread Co. and also a butcher’s cart for the late Thomas Doyle. About 1913 he joined the postal staff, his appointment was letter carrier at Tingha. From there he joined the military forces and about January 14th, 1916, sailed on board the Osterley bound for the Middle East with light horsemen on board. When he arrived in the Middle East he was given a Corporal’s rank and one of his first jobs was driving a team of mules. He says you know the ones that kick and bite pretty well. Then later was in the desert Camel Corps for eighteen months. He says they could bite and roar pretty well too, but the beauty of the camel was that they could carry at least six days supply for man and beast without any trouble. Previous to joining the Camel Regiment he said he was under the impression that camels only drank about every five or six days but found that a camel will drink as often as a horse if allowed and says they have to be made to take in the full quantity by keeping them from water a little longer each time and it has to be worked so that he will take in his fill by the time you want to start out. Then when he gets his fill be ready to start off on the trek straight away. Archie was batman to the late Oliver Hogue (Trooper Bluegum) part of the time whilst in the camel regiment. Whilst batman for Oliver Hogue he got hold of and sent home a sketch drawn with pen and ink by Oliver Hogue on an envelope. The sketch is of a long lean Australian soldier sitting on his haunches with his back to a post. In front of him is a

hole in the ground and an ant just about to enter it. Under the sketch is written “You lucky beggar, you’re goin’ ‘ome”. The sketch has become mislaid somehow but every time I looked at it it reminded me of the late Lieutenant Colonel Don Cameron. However the sketch had neither Oliver Hogue’s name or initials on it but it was he who sketched it. Of course this was all in World War I. After the war he returned to Australia, worked in the Newcastle Post Office for some time then in the post office in Armidale and later in the Ipswich Post Office in Queensland. There he left the post office and followed the calling of a bookmaker’s clerk in Brisbane. The bookmaker at times used to introduce him as the human percentage ready reckoner so smart was he in that line. When World War II broke out he went into the army as pay clerk at Redbank Brisbane with the rank of Sergeant. About 1948 he came to Sydney and was for some time in the spare parts of Hastings Deering in William Street, Sydney. From there he went to the Eveleigh Railway workshops. He is still there and at times does clerical work. His age is now 63 and is still unmarried.

3. Elizabeth Morrison – third daughter of Eliza Morrison (nee Gardner). She was born at the old flour mill at Aberdeen on 4th April, 1851, the year that Hargraves first discovered payable gold in Australia. She was wedded to Frederick Adams, late of Willowburn, Upper Rouchel and who also had a selection on the Upper Back Creek. Elizabeth lived practically all the whole of her married life at Willowburn, on and off at Back Creek whilst her husband was fulfilling his residential obligations on his selection. She passed away in Scott Memorial Hospital, Scone in July 1940, so she was therefore in her 90th year of her long and useful life. It was said of Elizabeth that during the whole of her long life she was never known to say an unkind word about any person and if she heard anyone attempt to utter unkind words would always say are you sure it is true and my advice is before you make a statement always be sure it is true, anyway it might be better left unsaid. Elizabeth had a family of four, three sons and one daughter. Two of their sons, Gordon and Frazer, also daughter Margret, still carry on the two properties. Elizabeth and Frederick had a family of four, three sons and one daughter. 1. Arthur Morrison Adams – born October 1885. He had his schooling at Rouchel Public

School under the tuition of F.E. Miller. After leaving school he was with his parents for some time, when they had one of the first cream separators on the Rouchel, in 1893. He became interested in the raising of poultry and exhibited and won prizes with his poultry in various parts of the state. As far as I know the greatest thrill he had in this line was when one of his exhibits defeated an exhibit from the then great Bonaventure Poultry farm. In about 1908 or 1909 Arthur married Cecile Drinkwater and reared two daughters. 1. Sadie Adams – [born 1909, registered Petersham BDM records] married Bob Luckie, a surveyor now somewhere in Victoria. I believe they have two children 2. Doris Adams – [born 1911, registered Petersham BDM records] married Keith Attkins, McCullys Gap on Sandy Creek. 1. Barry Attkins – of McCullys Gap

2. Robyn Attkins – of McCullys Gap Arthur later married again, wife’s maiden name Barwick. [BDM records – Ivy Barwick, married 1919, registered in Sydney] Two children of this marriage, names unknown. I think one son, one daughter. The son does big droving trips away in north Queensland and Northern Territory. Arthur at one time did some hawking in the drapery line, and later was employed by M. Campbell and Co. at their Rouchel store as their contract carter which he did with a van and pair of horses. He later shifted to the Liverpool district where he still lives. In recent years his wife passed away. Arthur is now aged 72 years. 2. Gordon Adams – born Rouchel, 1887. Also had his schooling at Rouchel School, teacher Late F.E. Miller. Has put in all his life at the old home, Willowburn, with the exception of the years he served in World War I in France. He enlisted as far as I know and sailed with the 34th Battalion and after being some time in the Middle East went on to France. The 34th was know as Hunter River’s own. The 34th Battalion during the campaign in France was responsible for the capture of an enormous German Gun which was brought to Australia and as there was no facilities at that time for unloading such a monster at Newcastle it was unloaded at Sydney and stood for some years outside the Central Station in Sydney and was later taken by rail to Canberra to the War Museum, it is mounted on I think 32 rail wheels and as NSW Railways have the standard gauge 4 ft. 8 ½ ins., the same as Germany, this is the only state that could handle it. He has interest in his late father’s two properties with brother Frazer and sister Margret, his age would now be 70 and is unmarried and never appears to be out of sorts. 3. David Frazer Adams – born 1889, Rouchel. [MHB refers to him as Frazer; BDM shows the birth of David F.] He had his schooling at Rouchel Public School and had his place of residence at the old home till his marriage with Florrie Moss some 30 odd years since, now lives with his wife and one son Max, just a short distance from the old home. Frazer was for some time an employee of the Scone Shire Council as a maintenance man on roads in the Rouchel area. How different now the work is all done by gangs, don’t know if it is better or worse. Frazer’s age would be about 68. 1. Max Adams – has put in practically the whole of his life about the old place. He

runs a house to house mail from Upper Rouchel Post office to Frank McDonald’s Bonacord near the head of the Rouchel Brook, his age is in the vicinity of 30 years.

4. Margret Adams – born 1891, Willowburn, Rouchel. She has lived the whole of her life at the old home. She also had her schooling at Rouchel Public School, not sure if it was same teacher. Margret lives at the old home with brother Gordon and she with brother Gordon are always willing to show the hand of welcome to all and sundry. Both are real chips off the old blocks Elizabeth and Fred Adams. Note the spelling of Margret, this is the way her great grandmother Margret Morrison spelled her name, that was the lady mentioned earlier who gave the letter to the old Gardner family in about 1840 as the boat they were travelling by from Ireland to Australia was in Glasgow harbor. It may also be as well to observe the spelling of Gardner – some of the descendants appear to be inclined to spell it Gardiner which is incorrect. The older members of the family were very particular about the spelling. I think it is a distinction between the north and the south of Ireland.

ELIZA: [After the death of her husband John Morrison, Eliza married William Walker on 28th April 1856. BDM reference 1988/1856. Eliza died 26th November 1915, residence Rosebrook, Muswellbrook. She is buried in the Presbyterian Cemetery, Muswellbrook] William Walker was burned to death whilst on a droving trip somewhere in the Dirrinbandi district in south western Queensland and was buried there. There were two daughters from this marriage. 1. Emma Walker – born 8.9.1856, Aberdeen. She married Mathew Spencer, born Bingeberrie, Rouchel, 9th October 1843.

Thomas Spencer and his sons one of which was Mathew, owned Rouchel Vale. Gave a portion of land for the building of an English Church. The church St. John’s was erected in 1875 by Martin Burnell who died the day he completed the building with the exception of fitting the door lock. Up till the time Rouchel Vale was sold in the late 1880s the land had not been transferred so the Spencers made it a condition of sale to Mr. Holmes that the land was to be transferred and Mr. Holmes honoured his part of the deal. The old church has been demolished and a new one erected and is due to be opened on April 26th 1958. It is situated 10 miles from Aberdeen on Rouchel Road. Emma married Mathew Spencer about the year 1881, resided at Rouchel Vale till about 1889 where at least 3 children were born, Aubrey, Granville and Ivy. They then went north west and settled in Narrabri for some couple of years where one son Stanley was born. Mathew Spencer had an interest in Cuttabunda, a station on the Bokhara and Narran rivers north west of Walgett, however before finally going to Cuttabunda to live they returned and lived in Muswellbrook where another daughter Mary was born. Finally in 1892 the family left these parts and went to reside at Cuttabunda, 3 more sons were born in that part of the state – the three sons born in that Bokhara area were Harrie, Keith and Jack. They returned to Aberdeen in 1901. Mathew Spencer started a carrying business in Aberdeen which he carried on till his death in 1910. Emma later went to and resided in Moree for some years and finally went and lived in Sydney where she passed away in about 1924. Her family consisted of 6 sons and 2 daughters.

1. Aubrey S. Spencer – born October 1883, Muswellbrook. Aubrey when only quite a youth was given and took charge of the shearing on Cuttabunda station. When Aubrey was quite a lad was on a droving trip with his father to what was to become the famous opal field of Lightning Ridge in the Walgett district. This was many years before opal was known to exist there, pebbles and stones being an unknown quantity on the Bokhara and Narran rivers. When at the ridge he became so interested at the sight of so many pebbles he decided to take some home to show the younger members of the family. One of the pebbles he found in a deep gutter was unlike the others and very pretty. This stone was a childish treasure till some year later a Hindu hawker who had been to White Cliffs an opal field north of Broken Hill was shown this particular pebble and at once wanted to buy it but didn’t mention the word opal. However he purchased the stone and gave Aubrey a half sovereign in gold for it. Aubrey believes this was the first piece of black opal from famous Lightning Ridge was that day bought and sold. The full account of this happening written by Aubrey Spencer himself and appeared in the Western Stock and Station Journal on May 26th 1949. About the beginning of the century he wended his way southward per push bike and was for a time at Lower Belford then later in McKenzie’s store at Rouchel. In 1907 he turned up in Gunnedah and was chief mover in the founding of the North Western Contracting Co formed for the purpose of shearing by contract.

A wool shed was erected with 16 shearing stands and many were the sheep that passed through his care whilst he was manager for said Co. The shed was two miles from Gunnedah on the Boggabri Road. He also operated a wool scour a little further down the Namoi River. Later he went to Moree where he was interested in a stock and station agency. The next the writer heard of Aubrey was when in 1937 he was adjutant with a team of riflemen that visited Bisley in England and later on the same tour he went as commandant with the first Australian team of riflemen to visit and tour Canada. After that he went into a partnership known as Harris and Spencer Stock and Station and Real Estate Agency business. Their office is now 150 Phillip Street Sydney, having just recently shifted from 91 in the same street.

In June 1908 Aubrey was wed to Grace Miller, [BDM search shows Violet G] at that time a resident on the Richmond River, previously of the Rouchel Public School where her father, the late F.E. Miller, imparted knowledge to the young of that area for a good number of years. The couple are now living at Mosman and are within striking distance of celebrating the Golden Anniversary of their wedding.

They raised a family of five sons and four daughters. 1. Max Sherwood Spencer – [born 1909 Muswellbrook BDM search] – was for over 30 years a Chartered Accountant as a principal in the Cummins and Wallace organisation in Moree. After disposing of his interest in this firm, he left Moree early in 1958 and is now settled at Esperance Bay, WA, engaged in a pastoral venture – sheep and cattle. The holding is one of 26,000 acres, and when fully improved by pasture improvement is reputed to be capable of carrying up to four breeding ewes to the acre, plus about 1500 head of cattle. He and his partner John Kelman, late owner of “Dundee” station in the Richmond district, North Queensland, have up to date sown down to pasture grasses an area of 16,000 acres, and are planning to sow down the remaining 10,000 acres in 1959.

Southern boundary of the holding practically fronts the Indian Ocean. Rainfall in the area is reputed to be the most consistently regular in the world. Average rainfall over the past 90 years exceeds 36 inches, and mostly falls in the April-September portion of the year. The 90 year records show that the highest annual fall registered in that period was 40 inches, the lowest 28 ½ inches. So, all and all, Max’s prospects for the future would appear to be excellent.

2. Norman Sherwood Spencer – [born 1911 Moree BDM search] – joined the staff of the Rural Bank at an early age, and is now manager of its Parkes branch. 3. Keith Frederick Spencer – [born 1912 Moree BDM search] – commenced his career in radio, first as an announcer at Ayr, North Queensland, subsequently at Bundaberg, Q. and later at 2LM, Lismore. While at Lismore he enlisted in the RAAF, and as a Flight-Lieutenant served 3 years and 8 months with the British Bomber Command. After taking part in the D-Day operations in the invasion of Normandy, France, he was invalided home. By the time his health had returned to normal V-E Day intervened

and World War II was over. He then became Manager of the 2LM broadcasting station, Lismore, in which capacity he remained for several years. Subsequently, he transferred to Townsville, North Qld, where he is Secretary of the local Liberal Association but still has an interest in the radio business.

4. Rex Sherwood Spencer – had a brilliant public and high school career. At Sydney University he was equally brilliant and graduated with honours as a BSc. After serving 5 years with the CSIRO, as a Bio-chemist, he has now joined the staff of Perth University. 5. Donald Sherwood Spencer – after being with Atlantic Union Company will, as principal, shortly be taking over its new service station in Military Road, Mosman. 6. Faith Sherwood Spencer – [born 1914 Moree BDM search] is married to a chemist named Moore, the proprietor of one of the largest businesses in

his line at Orange, NSW. 7. Joyce Sherwood Spencer – was a talented pianist, is married to Dr. Thomas Tidswell, who at present is Chief Medical officer for the Imperial Chemical Industries organisation, an exceptionally well paid job with liberal travelling allowances. His duties take him to all capital cities of the Commonwealth and also to New Zealand. 8. Audrey Sherwood Spencer – is married to a man named Vincent and lives at Naremburn, NSW. Her husband is connected with the well-known firm of Gartrell, White & Co., Bakers and Confectioners. 9. Helen Muriel Spencer – married name is Tramby. Her husband conducts a progressive Stock and Station Agency at Gurley, a township situated on the Moree-Narrabri railway line. [The above information is taken from an addition to MHB’s story, which he wrote at a later date. There is no listing of the birth order of the children, just the five boys in their order then the four girls in their order].

2. Edward Granville Spencer – born 1885, Muswellbrook, went to and returned from the north west same as brother Aubrey and settled in Aberdeen and like father carried on in the carrying business with one short break whilst he was employed at the A.C.&F. Co meat works at Aberdeen in the boiler house. Granville was a marksman of no mean calibre and many times top scored for his rifle team. He also was a kangaroo shooter of some note and appeared to be happiest while at that calling. He also was a beekeeper part of the time, partner with brother Keith.

Granville married Edna Whitehead of Aberdeen [BDM search – 1913, Muswellbrook registration] and raised a family, not sure of number. Granville’s widow resides in Aberdeen.

1. Edna M Spencer – [born 1914, registered Muswellbrook BDM search – she isn’t mentioned by MHB] 2. Mary Spencer – before her marriage was teaching at Davis Creek Public School. Married Dave Adams of Davis Creek.

3. Una Spencer – is a nurse at Canterbury Hospital, Sydney. Another daughter is married and living in Scone [perhaps Edna?] 4. Fred Spencer – follows the occupation of painter. He married Miss McGoldrick of Rouchel.

3. Ivy Ethel Spencer – also born Muswellbrook Sept 1888, went to and returned from the northwest with the family. Later took up residence in Sydney where she married and became Mrs. Butler, now deceased. After the death of her husband Ivy took up nursing and is now carrying on at her calling in a hospital at North Sydney. 4. Stanley Hunter Spencer – born March 1891, Muswellbrook. After leaving school at Aberdeen took up accountancy and for a time was employed in M.C. McKenzie & Sons Aberdeen store and later went in the same line to Moree or Inverell. Some years later he went as an accountant to a firm in New Guinea and stayed for about two years. He then returned and later conducted a motor service station at Merriwa. Then later on to Sydney where he passed away some short time since. While in the north he wedded Vida White of Inverell, she is now deceased. Do not know extent of family but at least one son was with the army in World War II.

5. Mary Ann Spencer – born January 1892, Muswellbrook, also went and returned from the northwest and whilst only a school girl passed away at Aberdeen in 1906.

6. Harrie Clive Spencer – born September 1895, Cuttabunda, [registered Brewarrina] on the Barwon, did part of his schooling at Aberdeen and later at Maitland High School. Went to Moree with his mother and there started work in the Lands Office and went later to the northern rivers. Then I think to head office. In Sydney he was then appointed Deputy Commissioner of the Western Lands Division of the Department of Lands. And in 1957 was appointed Commissioner in the same department. A great honour to a boy born in the area which he now controls. Harrie married but at present haven’t any particulars of family.

7. Arthur Keith Spencer – [apparently known as Keith] – born November 1897 at Cuttabunda, came to the Hunter with the family, was also schooled in Aberdeen. After his schooldays always appeared to favour being on the land. He went to some part of Queensland and there acquired a property. It was said that he took a trip to Adelaide and somewhere on the road was found dead in his car. He was unmarried.

8. Jack Sherwood Spencer – born 1900, Wirra Wirra, schooled at Aberdeen and Moree. Haven’t any particulars of his life after school. After a long illness passed away in a hospital at North Sydney about 1956. He was unmarried.

2. Ellen Walker – youngest daughter of Eliza Walker nee Gardner. Born Aberdeen,

date unknown to writer, known as Nellie. In her younger days lived at Aberdeen, Rouchel, Belford and Manilla. In 1896 she entered the old Scone Hospital at the southern end of Kelly Street [probably the apparent extension of Kelly Street known as Surman Street. The old hospital faces Smith Street at its western end], as a patient and remained for some years at the hospital as a nurse. A Mrs. Higgins was Matron of Scone Hospital at the time. Both Mrs.

Higgins and Ellen Walker gave up duties at the hospital at the same time and went and lived at Smithfield for a time. In about 1907 or 1908 both Mrs. Higgins and Ellen Walker went to Gunnedah and kept a guest house in partnership first in Barber Street and later kept Roseneath guest house in Maitland Street, Gunnedah for some few years and then returned to Sydney where Ellen Walker passed away. She never married. So that is about all that I know of the descendants of Eliza Gardner.

************************************************** ANN GARDNER: Daughter of the original Gardners and came from Ireland with family. Date of birth unknown to writer, and know very little about her, except that she married a man by the name Brown. They went to live at Cryon in the northwest between Burren Junction and Walgett. Ann Brown nee Gardner died while living at Cryon and was buried there. In 1908 I was at Cryon for the lamb shearing, then the property of J.K. & W.H. McKay. One day whilst searching for young galahs I saw a lonely grave about a mile on the western side of the homestead. On my return to Muswellbrook I mentioned that I’d seen a grave there and was then told that it was most likely the grave of Ann Brown. Previous to that I hadn’t heard of the death and burial of Ann Brown at Cryon.

*************************************************** WILLIAM IRWIN GARDNER: Born in Ireland about 1833, came from Ireland with the original family in 1840. First settled in Muswellbrook in 1843 and later in Aberdeen. William Gardner in partnership with Donald McDonald held a good portion of the Segenhoe estate where they grazed sheep that were shorn by hand at the old flour mill at Aberdeen. During this period they had Halcombe Homestead erected, the old house still stands and is on the old road from Aberdeen leading to Scone, about two miles north of Aberdeen and is occupied by one of the Day family at present. At the time that William Gardner and Donald McDonald held this portion of Segenhoe (the balance of the estate was held by McDonald brothers, Allan and Donald), the title was held by original grantee Thomas Potter MacQueen who it is believed was in England at the time, however a short history of Segenhoe written in Sporting Life a few years ago says about 8 years. From memory this [is] part of what was written, after describing the famous marble bath which Mrs. MacQueen used when she took her baths in fresh milk, it is said the milk was then distributed for use among the convicts, Segenhoe was one of the early convict settlements. The grant was made in 1824. The McDonald brothers had possession of Segenhoe for 19 ½ years. Had they held it for 20 years they could have claimed a title, however they were forestalled either by Potter MacQueen or a Mr. White (founder of the Hunter River White families) or both. However Mr. White bought the title said to be for 200 pounds and a coal mine went with it. Gardner and McDonald went to the Supreme Court of NSW in Sydney to try and have the matter of title settled. They employed Sir Julian Solomon as their counsel, it looks as though by majority the Supreme Court ruled against them. Sir Julian was very optimistic about winning an appeal if it was taken to the privy Council. Sir Julian Solomon said he never heard the Chief Justice sum up in such a definite manner before. It appears he was out voted on the bench. William Gardner and McDonald could only interview Sir Julian whilst he munched a few sandwiches for his lunch at the Supreme Court, so did not get much of an interview, however at this stage Donald McDonald died at Segenhoe. His death took place on August 16th, 1872. No further action was taken.

William also had the building erected in Aberdeen known and run as the Segenhoe Hotel. [See note page 36] He kept it at one stage as a hotel and ran a store and butchery in conjunction with the hotel. It was in this building where the late M.C. McKenzie started business as a storekeeper, he leased a room from W.I. Gardner, the rent paid being 2/6 per week. The same McKenzie from this small beginning later had a branch at Manilla, also at Rouchel and built the store in Aberdeen now occupied by M. Campbell and Co a good few years since. William later acquired Rose Vale, 9 miles from Aberdeen on Rouchel Road, his youngest son Sydney L. Gardner still resides on this property. He also owned Main Camp Station, portion of which was first taken up by J.T. Hughes. The original amount owned by J.T. Hughes was 846 acres. William Gardner added considerably to the original holding chiefly in the Back Creek area. Main Camp homestead is situated 15 miles from Aberdeen on Rouchel Brook. The old woolshed still stands near the homestead, now owned by Norman Brooker on the original main camp. There is a public school on two acres of land, given by William Gardner in 1881. On the sign on this school is Public School 1882 but believe it was opened in 1883 just 75 years ago. The following information was obtained from Department of Education on 5.2.1958 – part of W.I. Gardner’s Main Camp Estate formerly owned by J.T. Hughes, area 2 acres, acquired July 8th, 1881 and was known as Rouchell Public School (observe the double L) and on October 31ST, 1929 the name was changed to Rouchel Public School. So one L was dropped but no information as to which of the two L’s was taken off. The plan of ground now shows that a small three cornered piece was taken off one corner for road purposes. Quite close around the old place there is now the homestead, woolshed, a couple of cottages, a Post Office (Upper Rouchel), a public school, a School of Arts, a sports ground, a church, motor garage and a cemetery, where a good number of the descendants of the old Gardner family now lie buried. As said earlier, William Gardner added considerably to the first 864 acres and by the early 1890’s I think it was carrying about 10,000 sheep besides cattle and horses. In 1892 William Gardner had the first cream separator installed on the Rouchel in his dairy at Rose Vale. Strange as it may seem to the present generation the separator was installed in one of the rooms in the house. One of his neighbours, Kenneth Kennedy, came one day to have a look at the new-fangled idea of extracting cream from milk and saw what was left in the bowl, declared it a filthy affair for some unknown reason. He couldn’t be told that the separator took the impurities out of the milk and would therefore be much cleaner than the old idea of setting the milk in dishes and left for 24 hours to the mercy of most things that happened along before the cream was skimmed off. However he was believed to have said that he wouldn’t eat any more factory butter. How dense and contrary some people can be. Not known whether he kept his word. However financial worries in the late 90’s in connection with the Main Camp which by this time had grown into a station and so it went by the board. Sold to Frank Fermor for about 8000 pounds. William married Ellen Mitchell. Seven children were raised by the couple, five sons and two daughters. As near as possible, their ages ran – 1. Andrew Gardner – married Ellen Cameron, had a family of at least one son and three

daughters – Alexander, Olive, other names not known. Andrew acquired a selection on Back Creek, called it Naeela. Grazed sheep on the place, about 1892 he sold the property to H.H. Cox and went to Manilla district as a wheat farmer and after some years sold out and bought land in the Wagga district where he also carried on wheat farming till his death in the early 1920’s. His wife predeceased him. Son Alex is I believe still in the Wagga district. Some time about 1912 Andy Gardner and daughter Olive paid a visit

to Muswellbrook and attended the show. They then went to Rouchel and stayed a few weeks. Andy returned home and Olive was to follow. She boarded a train at Aberdeen bound for Sydney and there called on some people and was never heard of again by her people. I believe she had with her a cheque drawn by her Uncle Sydney Gardner and as far as is known that cheque was never cashed and the mystery has never been solved. That was 46 years ago. One married daughter of Andrew at a later date lived in the Gosford or Wyong area. Further details of the family are all unknown to the writer.

[BDM shows Olive’s birth registration in 1883] 2. William Gardner – after leaving school was employed in M. Campbell and Co. store in Muswellbrook. He later married Kate Bell of Melbourne and started a store on the spot where the present store run by one Bradley stands at Rouchel Brook. After disposition of this business he went and settled in the Camden district and later at Mangrove Mountain near Gosford. This couple are now deceased. There was no family to this marriage. 3. Malcolm Henry Gardner – after whom this writer was called, had a selection on Back Creek, Lemon Grove. This place is still carried on by his two sons, Cyrus and Wilfred. Malcolm married Sarah Carter of Oakfield, Rouchel and had the two sons named above. After his marriage Malcolm suffered a long illness and passed away on March 13th, 1893 and was buried on his 26th birthday aged 26 years. His widow later married Walter Holmes. 4. George Gardner – also had a selection somewhere on Rouchel. Married Jennie Chus (?) nee Hall also of Melbourne, sister to Kate Gardner wife of William Jnr. Not sure how many in family. There was one son Roy or Reg. One V.E.W. Gardner killed in action World War I. After disposing of his place on Rouchel, George started butchering in Scone. Billy Madden worked for him in this business. Billy said that he always went to the shop pretty early but always knew when George, who lived at Coreen on the Middle Brook, was coming at least half a mile away by the sound of the hooves of that grand old horse Carrington that he used to ride coming in contact with the metal as he cantered along the road. Then George later went into residence on Milton Farm a mile north of Scone and from there delivered milk around Scone, the price two shillings per quart. We hear of other commodities going up sky high to two or three hundred percent. If I’m not greatly mistaken milk, one of the staple foods for children, has gone up twelve hundred per cent. Perhaps it is because the children are too young to go on strike, and still we hear some dairymen complain. Other men in the same line who appear to see the matter in a more business like manner say if the price was more reasonable we would sell more and still get about the same income without robbing the kids. George Gardner also went into the Camden area. Both he and his wife have now passed away. 1. Vivian Charles W Gardner – [born 1896, registered Scone BDM research]

5. John E.V. Gardner – also had a selection at the head of Back Creek. Jack was a bit of a comedian. He had a couple of neighbours, Hugh and Willie Miller, who couldn’t find anything unless they fell over it. So one day they went to their hut in the bush and became alarmed to think they had been robbed as they couldn’t find anything in the hut – blankets, tinware and the like. Someone had been there and had hung their belongings to one of the tie beams or rafters. They were hung in such a manner that they actually had to bob down in entering the place, otherwise the stolen goods would have bumped them on the head, still they couldn’t find them. Jack got the credit for it but no evidence to say whether he was guilty or not. Jack married Clara or Kitty Holmes. I only know of one son, Paul V. Gardner, now in South Africa, attained the rank of major in World War II. After Jack sold his place on Back Creek he opened a store in Moonan Flat, 33 miles up the Hunter from Scone. He there carried on for some years and later sold out and joined his brother-in-law, Gartrell White of Sydney Bakers and Confectioners. He too has passed away. No particulars of his wife or other members of his family. 1. Paul V Gardner – [born 1903, parents John E V and Amy B. Registered Clarencetown BDM search]

[2. Miriam B Gardner – born 1904, Clarence Town, to John E V and Amy B Gardner – BDM research] 6. Elizabeth Gardner – married James Smith. She also had a selection on Back Creek. After disposing of their property on Back Creek, Elizabeth and her husband James Smith lived for a time on Stoney Creek, Rouchel. While living there Elizabeth died, about the end of last century. James Smith and the younger members of the family shifted to Manilla where he worked as a builder and later moved to Scone and passed away about 1930. He was well over the 80 mark and was born in England and came to Australia when very young. He was the eldest of a family of seven and was the last to die. They reared a family of nine. 1. Andrew Smith – married Miss Holmes of Rouchel Vale. I think Andrew after his marriage was for some time on the Holmes property, Oakendale, somewhere on the Paterson River, Maitland district. He later had a property between Belford and Branxton on the northern road, now New England Highway. He met with an accident somewhere about his old haunts on Back Creek. A fall from and a kick from a horse from which he died almost on the spot.

2. Albert Smith – born Rouchel Brook, date unknown. In about 1901 went to Gulf Creek in Barraba district, then a copper mining centre and there with his brother William kept a store till the mine closed. Later came back to the Hunter and had a farm at Moobi near Scone till he passed away. No particulars of wife and family.

3. William Smith – in his younger days went to Manilla and there was employed by M.C. McKenzie & Sons storekeepers and later worked at Rouchel store and in later life worked at M. Campbell & Co store at Scone till his retirement a few years ago. He then went to live in Sydney and passed away in January 1957. No particular of wife and family, some of whom reside in Sydney. 4. Ernest Smith – born Rouchel Brook in the early 1890’s, no particulars of his doings or whereabouts. 5. Archie Smith – returned from Manilla and was about Moonan for a while. Later

joined the Railway. He served in World War I and later was officer in charge of at least two crossings on the northern line, Murrulla and Togar. It was whilst at the latter place that he took ill and died. That would be in the mid 1930’s. He was married, his wife’s maiden name was Cullen, of Jerry’s Plains. No particulars of family or whereabouts of them and his widow. 6. Len Smith – returned from Manilla and went to and served in World War I. On his return he occupied a block of land on the soldiers settlement at Dartbrook near Aberdeen till his retirement a couple of years ago, when he went to live in Sydney, where he still lives. He married Miss Dawes, now deceased. She was a sister of Mrs. Colonel Cameron of Rouchel. No particulars of family. 7. Clive Smith – born Rouchel, the youngest of the family, was in 1904 with brothers Abb and Bill at the Gulf Creek store. He also enlisted and went to World War I. On his return he was also on the soldiers settlement at Dartbrook with brother Len and also lives in Sydney. No particulars of marriage or of any family. 8. Ellen Smith – was also born Rouchel Brook and went to live at Manilla till her father returned to Scone, where she lived, in Aberdeen Street, till the death of her father. She then went to live with her brothers Len and Clive and later went to live in Sydney, where she passed away in January this year, 1958, aged about 78 years. “Nellie” never married but will always be remembered by those who were privileged to know her for her kindly nature and hospitality. Vale old friend, will be said by many. 9. Sarah Smith – born Rouchel, also did the rounds with the family. And after returning to Scone was wed to Abe Mitchell of Moonan Flat and later Scone. Sarah died in her early married life. I think she was living at Satur, Scone, at the time of her death. Abe Mitchell’s death took place in about 1955, after a length of illness in the Scott Memorial Hospital, Scone.

7. Ellen Gardner – born at Rouchel, married Alfred Stafford, brother of the late Dave and Albert Stafford of Scone and Narrabri. Also of the late Mrs. M.C. McKenzie of Aberdeen. I think Ellen and Alfred must have had an interest in property at Back Creek because there’s a place there that was always called Staffords. Ellen went to Manilla with her husband and family where Alfred opened a branch store for M.C. McKenzie, later McKenzie and Sons. That would be in the late 1880’s. They remained in Manilla till about 1895 then returned to Scone where they carried on farming duties on Middle Brook. Later they went to Camden area where they stayed some years and later into retirement at Manly where Ellen passed away and later Alfred died in 1954, aged 93 years. As far as I know the family consisted of Roy, Alice and Jennie. There may be more. 1. Alice Mildred Stafford – [born 1883, Scone – BDM search], now Mrs. Small. Do not know where she lives or of any family. 2. Janet M Stafford – [born 1884, Scone – BDM search – this may be the Jennie referred to by MHB] On the family’s return from Manilla lived with the Dave Staffords of Scone. After that I haven’t heard anything of her or her doings or where she lives. 3. Ethel M Stafford – [born 1886, Scone – BDM research] 4. Lilian E Stafford – [born 1888, Manilla – BDM research]

5. Alfred R V Stafford – [born 1891, Manilla – BDM research – this may be the Roy that MHB referred to] – enlisted in World War I and on his return he married Florrie Wharton of Brushy Hill. No knowledge of his whereabouts or of any family.

That is all the writer knows about William [Irwin] Gardner’s first family and their descendants. After the death of William Gardner’s first wife, Ellen nee Mitchell, William married Margaret Cameron and born to them was one son, Sydney. 1. Sydney L Gardner – born 1885, Rouchel. Now residing at the old home where he was

born. In Sydney’s younger days he joined the Department of Education and became a school teacher. Two schools that he taught in were Mullaley, between Gunnedah and Coonabarabran in the north west and Davis Creek, Rouchel. At least part of Sydney’s schooling he received in a school on his father’s property, Rosevale, now closed. Two of his teachers that come to mind were a Miss Thomas and Mrs. Badham who was a sister of the late Rev. W. A. Woodd, at that time rector of the Church of England Parish of Gundy. Mrs. Badham later married a Mr. Hollingsworth, also a teacher, was the mother of Leonard Campbell Badham, now a barrister in Sydney and does duties in the Industrial Courts. Sydney, before entering parliament, was a partner in the Accountancy firm of Gardner and Key, Singleton and later was employed in the head office Department of Lands, Sydney. Sydney L Gardner later blossomed out as a politician and a pretty live wire he was. He became a member of the Federal parliament and represented the Electorate of Robertson for 18 years and survived about 6 contests. At one of the elections when some of his opponents said that his stocks were so low that he would be wiped right off the political map, he gained an absolute majority over at least three opposing would-be politicians, including W.M. Fleming who had represented these parts in both state and Federal parliaments for a long time. Such was the confidence reposed in Sydney by his constituents at the ballot box that day. In the Federal Parliament he was for several years Government Whip and also for some years a member of Joint Committee of Public Accounts. Sydney married, his wife’s maiden name unknown to writer. [BDM search shows Sydney L Gardner married Florence L Smart, Muswellbrook, 1915] Raised at least three in a family of 2 sons, one daughter, maybe more.

1. Irwin Lane Gunstone Gardner – [born 1.8.1915, North Sydney – NX28552 – National Archives of Australia Research]; died as a prisoner of War, World War II

2. Douglas Gardner – a fighter pilot. Gained his wings in Canada, mentioned in despatches. This latter event was broadcast all over Australia. His commission was Flying Officer. 3. Daughter Gardner – is a Mrs. Doyle and also resides at Rose Vale. [BDM research shows Audree Daphne Gardner marrying William Edward Doyle, Scone, 1945]

So much for William Gardner and his descendants. William Gardner died July 1914, aged 81 years.

JAMES GARDNER – half brother to Mary, Eliza, John, [this appears to be an error – no other information is given about a John in the first family] Ann and William Gardner, written of earlier. He arrived with his parents, the original Gardners, as a baby, so therefore would be born about 1840. Jimmy Gardner was said to be a horseman of some note. At one time in his early days he had a horse that was a noted swimmer. In one of the many floods in Aberdeen, one feat that he and his horse performed was when the late William Madden, father of the later Madden family of Davis Creek, was marooned on the roof of a building in Aberdeen. Jimmy Gardner on this horse carried a line to the place, which was a good swim. One end of the line was fastened around Madden’s body and Jimmy carried the other out to some men who were waiting at the edge of the water and hauled it to them. Evidently they didn’t know much about handling a life line. Instead of taking the slack in the orthodox manner of hand over hand they caught the end of the line and all hands ran away up the hill with the result that the weight of the line pulled the one being rescued under the water till he reached dry ground. He was in a half-drowned state but revived and lived for a good many years after. The next exploit Jimmy and the same horse had in another flood also in Aberdeen was when two men on horseback, one named Asser (brother of the late N.F. Asser of Scone), the other named Livingstone, made an attempt to cross the flooded Hunter River, both were washed from their horses. Jimmy rode his horse in to try and rescue them. He succeeded in rescuing Livingstone who came out hanging to Jimmy’s horse. The other, Asser, was drowned. Jimmy Gardner was also a carrier over the roads from Morpeth in the south on out into the north and northwest of the state. Many years ago Jimmy Gardner left the Hunter and settled at Kelvin in the Manilla district about twenty miles from that town. There he owned a farm on which he ran sheep and grew wheat till his death in about 1937 about 97 years. One of his sons still carried on the farm at Kelvin, the other sons of the family have properties in Manilla and Gunnedah districts. That is about all that is known of the family and families at present by writer.

******************************************************

JOHN (JACK) GARDNER – Full brother to James, was known as the Hercules of Aberdeen. Some of his feats of strength are still talked about among the older residents. One of his feats was when he rode up to the toll bar half way between Aberdeen and Muswellbrook and said to the tollkeeper, any charge to carry a parcel through. The toll keeper said no and was knocked speechless when Jack dismounted and stepped down underneath the horse, then stood up square with the horse resting on his shoulders and walked through, put the horse down, remounted and rode leisurely away. Another great feat of strength he performed whilst in Scone a great many years ago great logs were being put in place to set as sleepers for the erection of a building on the corner of Kingdon and Main Streets. After several attempts to put one of the logs in position by means of a draught horse had failed, Jack said take the horse away, I’ll do the job. And by making use of the harness after it was taken off the horse, placed the log in position without much apparent effort, thus what proved too much for a horse was easily mastered by Jack.

It has also been said that he carried his horse into a bar and asked for drinks for self and horse. He thought nothing of lifting a well grown steer from the ground. And eight or nine hundredweight was just another lift. Many were the old timers who would gather to see him load four bushel bags of wheat from the ground onto a wagon right to the top of the load. John Gardner married a Mrs. Cundy, who already had at least one son and two daughters. (Son William, daughters Mrs. Harry Harper of Scone, and the late Mrs. Harry Abbott of Scone). Mrs. Jack Gardner was accidentally drowned in Aberdeen over 60 years ago, about 1890 whilst dipping. Her sons tried in vain to rescue her, she was a very big woman and the boys were only small, so failed. John Gardner and Mrs. Cundy had two sons and one daughter. 1. Jack (“Toss”) Gardner, I believe his name was Walter – went to the Boer War and never

returned. When Bill Cameron was in England attending the Coronation of King Edward 7th he heard someone call out, “Good day Rouchel”, he had an idea it was Jack Gardner but after the excitement died down tried to find who had called out without result. Toss, who was born in Aberdeen, said he got the nickname Toss because every time he got on his pony it used to toss him off. Toss was most of his life a butcher at meat works, chiefly mutton and mostly killed and dressed the most sheep per man per day. He married, wife’s maiden name Flynn. They had two sons, William and Herb 1. William Gardner – at the Aberdeen meat works. 2. Herb Gardner – at the meat works in Dubbo. 2. Winifred Gardner – never married, lived most of her time in Aberdeen and later Muswellbrook. Passed away within the last two or three years.

ARBOR DAY AT ROUCHEL SCHOOL

About the year 1893 an Arbor Day celebration was held at the Rouchel Public School situated on part of Main Camp Estate and as the late W I Gardner had given the land on which the school was built in 1882 the honour of planting the first tree was given to the donor’s wife, Margaret Gardner nee Cameron, mother of Sydney L. Gardner. The tree was a camphor laurel, believe it has long since disappeared as well as the one next to it planted by the late Elizabeth Adams.

The mothers of children who had been or were at the time attending the school followed in

alphabetical order beginning with Mrs. Fred Adam. Then followed Mrs. Bridge after which came Camerons, Mrs. Caban and so on. I think trees were also planted by Mrs. Carter, Mrs. McCabe, Hindmarsh, Kennedy, Lonsdale, Miller and McMullin. Not sure of Mrs. Andy Pinkerton.

As far as memory goes the members of the Gardner family or descendants from them or

their wives who planted trees were: Mrs. W I Gardner Rose Vale Rouchel Mrs. Fred Adams Willowburn Rouchel Mrs. William Bridge Bridgelands Rouchel

This tree bears a plate giving date and by whom planted Mrs. Donald Cameron Rouchel Mrs. Kenneth Cameron Davis Creek Rouchel Mrs. Thomas Caban Davis Creek Rouchel Mrs. W G (Willie) McMullin Half Moon Rouchel Mrs. John I. McMullin Bingeberrie Rouchel Not sure of Mrs. Pinkerton Rouchel later Gundy Just prior to the planting ceremony a terrific storm including hail broke at the spot. Some of the ladies were almost bogged down. Till some planks were brought into use. As each lady planted a tree the husbands were asked to say a few words. I well remember my father saying he hoped the tree my mother planted would make good headway, but hoped it wouldn’t become a nuisance the same as Mrs Sutton’s prickly pear. That lady was the lady who first introduced the prickly pear to the Upper Hunter with almost disastrous results. Thanks to Cactoblastis moths the pear is now almost unknown. After 65 years the tree, a pepper, is still alive but no nuisance. DISTRICT NAMES 6 ½ miles from Aberdeen the road passes between two very rocky knobs. When the old Gardners saw them they reminded them so much of two hills they had known in Ireland that they named the hills after them. Bessie Bell and Mary Gray. The hills or knobs in Ireland mark the burial places of the said women.

SPENCER, Keith Sydney RAAF World War II SPENCER (Son of Stanley) Sydney World War II TILSE, Roy Stewarts Brook World War I THE WRITER IS AWARE THIS LIST OF SERICE MAY NOT BE COMPLETE AND THERE ARE SURE TO BE UNAVOIDABLE OMISSIONS AND EXPRESSES REGRET IN REGARD THERETO. 17TH June, 1958. M.H. Bridge, 16 Skellatar Street, Muswellbrook 3N, NSW ADDITIONAL NOTE ATTACHED TO THE WRITTEN WORK, BY MALCOLM HENRY BRIDGE, undated Please attach to writings re Gardner family: These writings concerning the Gardner family and descendants are not meant to be history or family tree. With exception of a few details supplied by Sydney Gardner of Rose Vale, Rouchel, and Aubrey Spencer of Mosman, the whole account written is from memory. If more or less details are written of some of the descendants than others it has only been through lack of knowledge of some of the families. What gave the writer the idea of writing came from the Scone and Upper Hunter Historical Society. Their secretary, Wilfred Green, asked me to pick on at least one family among the early settlers of the Upper Hunter and write all I could about them. My reply was if I pick a family I may find that I know more details of some branches than others. His reply was write the facts as you know them. What we would like is truth as far as you can write it, which I have endeavoured to do. It will be noticed that two branches of the family receive very little mention. They are Ann Brown nee Gardner, who died at Cryon in the north west, many years ago. No details of her family. And James Gardner, who went to the Manilla district in the 1880s. Endeavour was made to contact members of his family without result. What little I know of the latter two families is included in the writings. So knowing more about the Gardner family of whom the writer is a descendant, then any others among the early settlers decided on that family. They have been settlers for 118 years, 1850-1958.

Note from Margaret Ashford re Segenhoe Hotel, Aberdeen. MHB states on page 24 “William also had the building erected in Aberdeen known and run as the Segenhoe Hotel”. In 2015 I obtained an undated pamphlet published by the Upper Hunter Shire Council entitled “Historical Aberdeen Walk”. It states that Thomas Potter McQueen of Segenhoe constructed the inn. Correspondence between him and the Crown Solicitor of NSW is quoted and this includes the construction date of 1837. Given that the Gardners arrived in Australia in 1842, this proves that MHB is incorrect in this assertion.

The Gardner Story continued – Notes by M H Bridge 29/8/1962

(Photocopy of a handwritten document owned by Mrs. Evelyn Collison, 24.3.1979 and typed by Margaret Ashford January 2016.) Continuation of Gardner Story Whilst writing of what came to mind regarding the Gardner family (in 1958) I made several unsuccessful attempts to get in touch with members of the descendants of the late James (Jimmie) Gardner, son of the original head of the Gardner family, natives of the County Fermanagh Northern Ireland, who came to Australia in 1840. Then after a brief article dealing with the Gardner family appeared in the Scone Advocate in March 1964, under or over the writer’s name, and through the courtesy of the Advocate, I have been able to contact one who had asked the Advocate to supply her with several copies of the paper containing the article. She is Mrs. H.A. Brodbeck (nee Izetta Gardner) who resides at 37 Rodney Street, Barraba. In a letter received from her dated 14th October 1964, the following information was gained. [Quoting her letter] My grandfather James Gardner married Dora Dixon and raised a family of 9 sons and 5 daughters. Sons’ names, Bill, Tom, Jack, Jim, Abb, Bob (who was thrown from a horse and killed aged 17 years). Then followed Frank, Archie, and Walter (the last two being twins.) Daughters’ names Laura, Emma, Lily, Nell and Ethel. They being the father, and uncles and aunts of Izetta Brodbeck (nee Gardner) of Barraba. One only of the sons are still living. He is Archie, residing at Barraba aged 82 years. He married Daisy Thoms [sic] and has two married daughters, one in Tamworth, one at Guildford. 1. The oldest son of James was William (Bill) who married Mary Costello and till his death owned a property Oodnadatta in the Manilla district. 2. Tom Gardner who was the father of Izetta Brodbeck, he married Salina Fletcher in 1887, died September 1949 aged 85 years, had 10 in family (his wife died 1930 aged 59 years). Had six daughters (one died in infancy) and three sons. Izetta one of two sets of twins, one twin of the eldest set died aged 6 months. The others are living in Sydney and Ettalong. Two daughters died, one being a cripple from the age of 11 years with Rheumatoid arthritis. But could paint beautifully. Her pictures won prizes throughout the State, and she was well known for her paintings. Izetta daughter of Tom Gardner, married Horace Brodbeck, has two children (married) son Wesley is civil defence controller at Barraba where he resides. Daughter Elinor married Bob Allen, a school teacher, residing at Gosford. 3. Jim Gardner jr. married Lydia Coote of Manilla, had a family of 7 sons and 2 daughters, and owned a property Newry Park Upper Manilla. 4. Abb Gardner married Annie Hornery, had a property at Kelvin in the Gunnedah district. His son Irwin is still on the property. 5. Jack Gardner, died many years ago

6. Bob Gardner, thrown from a horse and killed aged 17 years. 7. Frank Gardner married Kate Byrnes, died 1926. 8 and 9 were twins, Walter and Archie Gardner 8. Walter Gardner, a twin, died when a young man. 9. Archie Gardner, a twin, mentioned earlier, is the only surviving son of James Gardner senior and wife nee Dora Dixon. Resides in Barraba. Following are the daughters of above mentioned James and wife Dora Gardner 1. Laura Gardner married Jim MacCormack, both have passed on, as have most of their family. 2. Emma Gardner married Bill Billings. Had a son who lost his life in World War I. 3. Nell Gardner, married Jack West of Tamworth. 4. Lily Gardner married his brother Bob West and years later when a widow married John MacRitchie and died 19th March 1964 at her daughter’s home in Maitland aged 84 years. 5. Ethel Gardner, youngest daughter of James Gardner senior, married Jack McLelland of Tamworth, and is now living with her daughter in Perth, only surviving daughter. [End of quote from letter] As far as the writer is aware at present 1964, there are three of the third generation of the Gardner family in Australia who are still living. They are Sydney Lane Gardner of Rose Vale Rouchel, son of the late William I Gardner sr, Archie Gardner of Barraba and Ethel McLelland nee Gardner of Perth. The later two are son and daughter respectively of James Gardner senior and wife nee Dora Dixon. If there are more of that generation, they would be descendants of Ann Brown nee Gardner, who died at Cryon Station between Wee Waa and Walgett. Whilst doing the writing re the Gardner family in 1958 I failed to get tidings of Ann Brown’s family but live in hopes.

Gardner family – a photocopy of a handwritten letter to Evelyn Collison, a Gardner descendant, typed by Margaret Ashford January 2016.

Evelyn Collison In your letter you expressed the hope that I would not find your questions in anyway boring. Certainly they are not boring and I’m always pleased to answer any questions providing I am able to give a satisfactory answer. Yes my grandmother on the maternal side was Eliza Gardner. The original head of the Gardner family I believe arrived in Australian in 1840 [1842] with four children of his first marriage along with his second wife and one son born to that marriage. Two more children were born after their arrival. The four of the first family born in Ireland were Mary, Eliza, Ann and William. Of the second family James arrived as a baby, then John and Jane were born later. Mary married John McMullin. To them 6 daughters and two sons were born. They were: William, married Kitty McDonald John married Bella Jones Betsy married Donald Cameron Mary married Kenneth Cameron Sarah married Tom Caban Beckie married Billy Madden Emmie married Andy Pinkerton Ellen married Tom Jones Eliza’s first husband was John Morrison. That union 4 children (one son and three daughters) were born. Adam died in infancy Margret married George Lambert Mary married William Bridge Elizabeth married Fred Adam Eliza then married William Walker. Two daughters were born to the latter union. Emma married Mat Spencer Ellen remained single Ann married Brown. Died at Cryon in the north west. No particulars of family. William married Ellen Mitchell. Their family were: Andrew married Ellen Cameron William married Kate Bell George married Jennie Chue nee Ball Malcolm married Sarah Carter John married Miss Holmes Ellen married Alf Stafford Elizabeth married James Smith

William senior after the death of his wife Ellen married Margaret Cameron. One son born to this union: Sydney – lives at the old home, Rose [sic]. Wife’s name unknown to self. She was born in England. Then our great grandfather Gardner’s second family James born about 1840. In the 1880s James went to Manilla district and remained there till his death about 1937 at the age of 97 years. I do not know his wife’s maiden name. All I know there was a family mostly sons. The only names I know are William and Albert. John married a widow, Mrs. Cundy. Three children were born to them. Toss believe his name Walter. Wife’s name Flynn or Herbert. John went to Boer War never returned. Winifred who remained single. Jane who married George Mitchell. You would know more of this latter than I do. [note in the margin, “my grandmother was Jane Gardner, Evelyn Collison”] After the death of great grandfather Gardner his widow [Elizabeth who migrated to Australia] married a man by name Arnold and was called by the families Granny Arnold. She was buried at Main Camp cemetery at Upper Rouchel. A headstone marks the spot. Then you ask about Granny Mitchell [nee Jane Gardner]. I know very little about the old lady. Believe her maiden name was Lane, not sure. I never saw her. I remember hearing a lot about her funeral. A message was sent to your grandfather [presumably George Mitchell, husband of the woman who has died] after her death at Rose Vale. He set off with buggy and pair not knowing the time of burial. He expected to cross the Hunter at the Broad Crossing 5 miles from Aberdeen on Rouchel road. On arrival the water was too deep to cross so had to go to Aberdeen to cross and when about a mile from Rose Vale saw the funeral coming about sundown. It turned out that a couple of busy bodies had taken the arrangements out of the hands of the Gardners. Jack Gardner did not attend the funeral and when asked why his reply was there are no race horses on Rose Vale. So it appears that the pace was pretty fast. Candles had to be lit and held so the Rev. Norman could see to read the service. Of course that is now in the dim and distant past. I know it greatly upset your grandfather. You said in letter your mother was loved by all. I think this could be said of the whole Mitchell family. And for your father. Wasn’t he a grand man, I will remember your family shifting to Amaroo. I was the boy at Mrs. Cone’s at Myles Valley at the time and it was her buggy and pair of horses your father borrowed to shift the family. I also had a letter from Ernie Cone of Middle Brook. He wanted to know something of the Cone family so I wrote and told him what I know of them.

If you care to I’ll leave with you what I had written of the Gardner family. I expected to have a type written copy to lend you but it is out on loan. But there is little different. I had 4 copys typed, one is in the hands of Syd Gardner, one Aubrey Spencer has in Sydney, one in the Scone and Upper Hunter Historical Society and the other is on loan locally to one who is going to try and straighten it up a bit. The writings are almost all out of my head and perhaps could do with some straightening out. But to anyone like yourself who knows the family it is readable. Each one of the families who have read it say it is a good effort. Mac Bridge, 29/8/1962 If Cleave Cone went to World War I as did Ernie his name should be added to the service list.

***************************************************** Burial of William Gardner of Enniskillen

Additional notes by Malcolm Henry Bridge, 4/11/1964

Somewhere in my writings concerning the Gardner family mention is made that the original Gardner’s grave

is beneath the present St. Luke’s Church of England in Scone.

In October 1964, I was told that the records show that William Gardner, about 60, and a Gardner child are

buried in an unmarked grave up from the Dunbar tomb (near the Columbarium), definitely not under the

church building.

The above information was supplied by Mr. A.A. McLellan, Solicitor of Scone, who in 1964 compiled a

history of St. Luke’s Church, Scone. Mention of the above does not appear in the book which he had

published.

Obituary – copied from Scone Advocate July 1940

Handwritten by Malcolm Henry Bridge; typed by Margaret Ashford, January 2016

The Late Mrs. F. Adam

The late Mrs. Adam, wife of Mr. Frederick Adam of “Willow Burn” Upper Rouchel, who passed on in the Scott Memorial Hospital [Scone] on Thursday last in her 90th year, will be missed, yet affectionately remembered, by not a few friends and acquaintances as well as those who comprise the family circle. Deeply read and informed her reminiscences of the early days in the district were invariably interesting, as they also were related with a redolence and colour that made them all the more fascinating. Each milestone of her long and useful life, had associated with it kindly thoughts for others. Born at the old and historical flour mill at Aberdeen on April 4th 1851, her father, John Morrison, was an engineer, and a native of Glasgow, Scotland, came to Australia over 100 years ago, and for some years on his own behalf conducted “The Mill”. The historical land mark and building still standing on the outskirts of Aberdeen, and still in a remarkable state of preservation. For some 55 years the late Mrs Adam resided on the Rouchel, and where the old home was the centre of hospitality, and where a fervent welcome was always to be had. Her husband now in the octogenarian stage of life, and himself a worthy member of the community survives, as also do three sons and one daughter, names, Messrs Arthur (Fairfield), Gordon, David F and Miss Margret Adams of Upper Rouchel. One son, Gordon, saw active service on the Western Front in the 1914-18 Great War. The old lady was, almost needless to add, the last of her generation, was a sister of the late Mrs. William Bridge of Scone, whose husband was some years since a prodigious contributor to “The Advocate” of early happenings hereabouts. When the Upper Hunter was in swaddling clothes as it were. The funeral took place on Friday morning and was largely attended. Rev. D Hamilton (Aberdeen) took the service in the Rouchel Presbyterian church, as he also did in the Main Camp Cemetery (Upper Rouchel) a little later. End of article

The following did not appear in Advocate but written by Mac Bridge. The late Mrs. Frederick Adam (Aunt Lizzie) nee Elizabeth Morrison, was born at the old flour mill at Aberdeen on 4th April 1852, and often said that the year of her birth should be easy to remember, as that was the year in which Hargraves first found payable gold in NSW. On her maternal side the late Elizabeth Adam nee Morrison was a descendant of the original Gardner family, who were born at Enniskillen, in the country Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, and came to Australia in 1840.

Elizabeth was the third daughter of John Morrison and his wife nee Eliza Gardner. The late John Morrison for a number of years before going to Aberdeen was Engineer at Chivers Tweed Factory in Muswellbrook which opened in 1841. MH Bridge 28/11/1965

Rouchel History by M H Bridge Typed from his hand written copy by Margaret Ashford January 2016. The following is taken from an extract from the Scone Advocate which appeared under my name dated September 25th 1964 under a heading Early Settlers of Rouchel Recalled, from information I received from Aubrey Spencer, now residing at 22 Queen Street Mosman, who gained the information from the Registrar General’s office in Sydney and is set out in the form of questions and answers. Quote: 1. Where was the first European habitation erected in the Rouchel Valley? Bingeberrie 2. For what purpose was the habitation erected? Shepherds’ quarters for the Ravensworth Company which had been granted a vast tract of grazing land extending from near Singleton to and including the Rouchel Valley 3. Who were the first occupants? Thomas Spencer and his wife Mary, who came to Australia in 1840 under contract as shepherd for the Ravensworth Company at a salary of 10 pounds per annum and a ration and a half. Thomas Spencer hailed from Surrey, England, and his wife from the Vale of Avon, County Wicklow, Ireland. Their first son, Thomas, was born at Bingeberrie in 1841, followed by Matthew, 1843. John 1845, Absalom and twin Mary 1846. In all they reared a family of six sons and five daughters. With the exception of Edward, their youngest son, all were born at Bingeberrie. 4. In what year was the Rouchel land first made available for occupation? 1855. When 16 small holdings in the lower portion of the valley were made available for occupation. 5. To whom was the first of these holdings actually allotted? Thomas Spencer senior, area 152 acres. Location: the present homestead stands on this area. It was originally called Rouchel Vale, but during the Holmes occupation which took place about 1889 the word “Rouchel” was deleted and became The Vale. 6. How was the original Rouchel Vale area increased? In 1861 the John Robertson Land Act came into operation in NSW and under its provisions, other lands in the Rouchel Valley became available as conditional purchase areas. The first of these CP holdings were recorded to Thomas Spencer senior, 160 acres and 40 acres to Thomas Spencer junior, both in January 1862. Subsequently further areas were allotted to Thomas, Matthew, John and Absalom Spencer. End of quote Of course the original Alexander Cameron and the original Donald Kennedy whose wife was a sister of Alexander Cameron were among early settlers on Rouchel. Alexander Cameron at Glenerne and Donald Kennedy at Dalvey. These holdings probably embraced some of the 16 holdings mentioned earlier.

In 1861 William Gardner acquired Rose Vale. This must have embraced portions also of the 16 holdings made available as it was 1862 when the first land was available under the John Robertson Act. M H (Mac) Bridge, 16 Skellatar Street, Muswellbrook 3N 27.6.1967

46 FURTHER GARDNER-RELATED ITEMS FROM MAC BRIDGE’S WRITINGS

NB: I have not gone into a detailed search to ensure that each person I’ve printed in bold is actually a

Gardner connection, I’ve just gone on the surname. MA 13/2/2016

Headed: The Scone and Upper Hunter Historical Society, 1963 [a 30 page document, handwritten] Starts: In 1896-97 from memory those who owned or lived adjoining and near the road leading from Scone to the head waters of the Hunter. This road branched to the right from the Great Northern Road near the southern approach to the town of Scone near what is now (1963) Rotary Park. [MHB continues, naming and describing people and properties along this road. The Great Northern Road would be the New England Highway; the road “branching to the right” would be Gundy Road.] BELLTREES A long piece of information about Belltrees, shearing, etc. continues: Doug Cumming was horse breaker on the station and made extensive use of these yards [cattle and killing yards near the shearing shed, mentioned earlier] Continuing on from Belltrees Next on left near the road near the river lived a stockman Jack Mitchell and his wife nee Mary Jackson and their children. Jack Mitchell was a stockman of the second generation of the name. His father George Lane Mitchell and his wife nee Jane Gardner occupied a house on Belltrees about a quarter of a mile from son Jack, where a family of 9 were reared. George was born on a part of the property known as Aberfoyle at the time was employed as head stockman. ….. [several pages later] This was at the 26 mile peg. A quarter of a mile further on the road entered crown land which in 1897 was acquired by Bill Tilse as a homestead selection, Amaroo, where he lived with his wife nee Lizzie Mitchell and family. About the 28 mile the road entered Glen Fern, the home and property of Joe Cone. …In 1896 Joe’s brother Henry Cone and wife nee Nellie Mitchell lived at Glen Fern whilst waiting for a home to be built on a homestead selection which Harry acquired further up the brook. …Near the 29 mile peg which was marked on an oak tree in the middle of the brook the road entered Wommelguy, the original home and property of the Carter family. At the time Wommelguy was occupied by at least two of the Carter sisters who were spinsters and their three bachelor brothers, James, Edward and Temple. Later Edward and Temple married sisters by name Caban, natives of Wollombi. Bob Carter had a place nearby name Winterline[?]. Next was the home and property of Henry Carter and wife nee Miller of Back Creek Upper Rouchel. Over the next crossing of the Brook was the home of Henry Cone mentioned earlier. …. From Henry Cone’s on, the country was at the time mostly reserved for gold mining purposes with the exception of three small holdings which were held by W L Adams and wife nee McGregor a native of Parkville. Robert Carter and wife nee Jane Miller, sister of Mrs. Henry Carter, Robert Carter kept the Stewarts Brook Post and Telephone Office. Also had store and butcher’s shop. … [several pages] After leaving the top of Campbell’s Hill the road passed on its left over the river the home and property of Charles Challis who added to his income by having a horse team on the Scone to headwaters of the Hunter road. Later Charlie Challis was wed to Mary Ann Caslick daughter of William Caslick and wife nee Cone

47 who lived at Moonan Flat. Later Charlie had two horse teams on the road one driven by son Bill. It was Charlie Challis who had one of the first motor lorries on the road. His huge Thornycroft became a household word along the road. … Near the 31 mile peg the road passed out of the Belltrees property. …. Near the 32 mile peg the road crossed over the river twice …. On the bank of the river over the second of the two crossings was the Moonan Flat Temperance Hotel conducted by the widow of the late Andy Mitchell. Her maiden name was Margaret Pinkerton. The building is now the Victoria Hotel. There was an amount of property adjoining the Temperance Hotel belonging to Mrs. Mitchell. Next on the left the Moonan Public School. … Next on the left lived Bill Simpson with young daughter Louisa. Mrs. Simpson whose maiden name was Louisa Cone passed away whilst her daughter was very young. Young Louisa in her days of woman hood married Bill Ross. It was in or near Bill Simpson’s home that Jack Gardner of Rouchel about the turn of the century opened a General Store. A road from near here branched right leading to Moonan Brook formerly The Denison. On the right near the turnoff was the home of Bill Tilse and wife nee Elizabeth Mitchell a member of the Belltrees Mitchells. In 1897 the Tilse family moved to their homestead selection block Amaroo on Stewarts Brook near the 26 ½ mile peg. Bill Tilse’s home at Moonan Flat later became the police station in charge of Constable Anderson. … After crossing the river near Millers, the road crossed the Rooty Bank Race Course, where horse races were held periodically. Then again across the river the latter two crossings were called the Two Rooty Bank Crossings. The Rooty Bank Race Course was in the first paddock belonging to Ellerston which was the property of HEA and V White of Belltrees. After leaving the second Rooty Bank crossing about a mile on on the right of road was Blumenthal, ownership at the time unknown to the writer. Present owners and occupiers Granville Budden and wife nee Ivy Challis. … Near the 41 mile peg on the left the gate leading into Ellerston homestead. Near the gate was turn off leading across the river to Puddledock the home and property of James Pinkerton junior and wife nee Aslyn. … Pol Blue Creek which was mostly dry was crossed, a road led up the creek which came in on the left to the back portion of Puddledock, where later Freeman Caban was in residence as manager. Freeman’s wife’s maiden name was Radnidge and hailed from Murrurundi. … The next property entered was the property of Jack Mitchell who resided there with his wife nee Caslick and their family. … The road passed from Mitchell’s and again entered Ellerston and on the Nine Mile Creek …It was a few mile up Nine Mile Creek where Mat Pinkerton lived on his selection, Fernleigh. Mat’s brother Jack also had a selection near by. … Further up Page’s Creek leads near Ben Hall’s Gap. The gap was named after Ben Hall, a native of Murrurundi who in later life joined Gardner’s Gang of highwaymen operating in the Western districts over a hundred years ago. … Back to Ellerston where the road leads up along the left bank of the Hunter …. About a mile up Branch Creek … Gregory Blenman and wife nee Martha Rossington had a share farm on Ellerston…. A half mile from the junction opposite the boundary gate between Ellerston and Hunter’s Vale lived Bill Budden and wife nee Margret Bridge and family, Bill was employed on Ellerston as a boundary rider. … There were at the time various selections in the Glen Rock area for instance there was Moonan Bill Mitchell of Gogg’s Top, Belltrees George Mitchell and wife nee Ada Collison in the vicinity of Kangaroo Flat. … On looking over the Moonan Flat, Moonan Brook area I find I omitted mention of a few who at the time resided in the localities. … A daughter of James ---- is the wife of Alex Cumming late of Davis Creek Upper Rouchel now residing in Scone.
