| 60 | George Whitehaven Baxter George was the fifth child and youngest son of Charles Farquharson and Jessie Minnie Baxter (nee Millsom) and was born in Perth WA on 26 August 1910. Soon after his birth he was taken back to his parents' property 'Whitehaven', near Quairading. His father purchased Whitehaven, in 1904, which was to be his home for the first four years of his life. In 1914 his father was elected to the Legislative Council of the WA Parliament and the family moved to Perth. George was given the middle name of 'Whitehaven' after the farm. The house they purchased in Mt Lawley.' They travelled from Quairading to Perth in a Studebaker sedan, which was loaded with not only the fanuly of seven and their luggage, but also two pet kangaroos and two caged cockatoos. It took all day to drive the 170 kms, over the gravel roads, and after numerous flat tyres they finally arrived in Perth around midnight. The family temporarily resided in St Alban's Av, Highgate. In 1915 the family moved into their new residence at, 23 Vale Road, Mt Lawley. The house was also called Whitehaven and was to remain the family home until 1952. George commenced his education at Highgate Primary School, Lincoln St, Highgate, and completed his education at Perth Boys High School, James St, Perth. After leaving school he obtained employment, as a shop assistant at Bernson's Furniture Store, is Stirling St, East Perth. Sometime around 1929, he lost his job at Berinson's and went to work on the farm at Waeel Siding, with his older brothers Russell and Bob. Their father purchased this property after he sold the 'Whitehaven' in 1924. In 1930, Russell left the farm to go dairy farming, however, George continued work on the Waeel siding farm until late 1934 or early 1935, when he decided to head north to the East Kimberley's. At Wyndam he obtained work at 'Vestys Meat Works' and after some time with Vesty's he worked on a couple of cattle stations in the area. While at Wyndham he met Kathleen Griffith, who was also working in the district. He and Kathleen were married after he returned to Perth in 1942. In February, of that year the Japanese bombed Wyndam and he along with some of the local the population was evacuated south. At about the same time he was called-up for military service and was enlisted in the army. He served, as a sergeant, in the War Graves Registration Unit at Swan Barracks. Following his discharge from the Army in 1946, he applied for a Soldier's Settlement Block and in the interim worked at Berrison's until he was allocated a block. In late 1949 or early 1950 he was allocated an established farm, located about 13 kilometres west of Kellerberin. This property was originally owned Caleb Massingham but it had been allowed to run down before it was taken up for the Soldier's Settlement Scheme. Incidentally, in 1913 Caleb Massingham was one of the persons along with his father, Charles, who attended the inaugural meeting in Kellerberin to form a political party. At this meeting formed the Farmers and Settlers'Association, which was later to become the Country Party and in turn the National Party of Australia. George worked this farm until the mid 1960's when he sold it and purchased a smaller property at Quejedda. A few years later bought a property at Forest Field and after selling that he began a career as a real estate agent. He eventuallv became a licenced Real Estate Agent and owned a business in Beaufort St, North Perth, which he operated until the time of his death. He was a Freemason and a member of the Lodge of Fraternity. In 1980 he was elected Master of the lodge as was his father and his brother, Norman before him. George a very kind and easy going person but unfortunately he was a heavy smoke and suffered from emphysema, this may have been a contributing factor to his early demise on 30 December 1984 at the age of 74 years. | Baxter, George Whitehaven (I920)

| 62 | Harriet arrived on a ship (William Prouse) in 1854 The below writen by MURIEL McEWIN (nee Daniel) or 25 Torr Ave, Brighton S.A. 5048 abt 1997 The twins, Alice and Minnie looked so much alike, they were constantly mistaken for each other. When Aunt Minnie lived at Victor Harbour, South Australia, after they retired, She told me (Muriel Mc Ewin (nee Daniel)) that when both live at Parilla when they were farming, they nearly always got each others bills! Aunty minnie and my Grandmother, Helen Daniel, also looked very much like them. There were only 16 children as far as I know. My Father, Percy Daniel, told me that one sister made a terrible mistake of getting pregnant before she was married. The father was so furious, he struck her name out of the Bible and forbade any of the family to ever have anything to do with her again - not to even mention her name. Dad found out when one of her sons came down from Sydney trying to contact her family. Dad got quite a shock as he not know she had even existed. She was dead by then. | Fisher, Harriet (Elizabeth ?)

| 67 | Henry George Spedding-Smith Henry George Spedding Smith was born in Ballarat VIC the son of a very highly respected member of the Ballarat Stock Exchange. He was educated at Ballarat College and gained the Civil Service Diploma. He later moved to WA and eventually joined the WA Police Service on 16 October 1894 as a Probationary. Constable, Service No 133. During his long years of service with the WA Police Force Hal was stationed in the following country towns: Cue (2 November 1894) Const 2/C Wiluna (1 December 1899) Const 2/C Lawlers *(19 August 1904) Bridgetown (7 March 1906) Fremantle (2 September 1907) Corporal Ravensthorpe (23 March 1908) Fremantle (3 May 1912) Southern Cross (7 December 1914) Sgt Perth (3 June 1916) Sgt 2/C Kalgoorlie (10 February 1920) Broome (4 October 1921) Insp 3/C On posting to Cue he was paid six shillings and six pence per day and a living allowance of Ä30.0.0 PA. At Cue he was knows as the boy policeman. Whilst stationed at Lawlers he was in charge of the main gold escort from Lake Way to Leonora- Eventually he was transferred back to Fremantle where he was appointed Officer in charge of the Fremantle district with the rank of Inspector 1st Class. Some time after he and Rene were married he apparently chose to hyphenate his name to Spedding-Smith. Spedding was his mother's maiden name. After retiring from the Police Force Hal tried his hand at farming and he purchased or leased a property about 40 kilometres, north of Esperance, in the district which is now known as 'Speddingup.' Co-incidence? He died at Fremantle in July 1938 aged 64 years. | Spedding-Smith, Henry George (I1204)

| 71 | Hi Garry, I plucked this line regarding Lindsay Buckley, ID I1927 in the smith family tree from Esperance WA cemetery records :- BUCKLEY, Lindsay Joseph. 1940 - 2008. Son of Eileen and Murray, husband of Fay, father of Julie and Steven. from http://www.ozburials.com/CemsWA/Esperance/esperancenew.htm Lindsay and Fay lived and farmed somewhere near Esperance WA. I am guessing that Fay's family intend returning her ashes to Esperance. | Buckley, Lindsay (I1927)

| 72 | Hi Garry, I've spent a bit of today re-building my PC. When backing up my emails and then restoring them I noticed your email address and thought I'd give you a note regarding the Smith Family Bible. It, the bible, has been with members of the Hancock family for many years. In particular of recent times, Eric Hancock who is the grandson of Lavinia (nee Smith) & Clifford Hancock. Eric felt that the Bible rightly belonged in the Smith family and presented Rev. Dr John Smith with the Bible at the Jamestown get together in 2004. Eric told me the other day that John has had the bible restored. The Bible I think was one of the very few pieces of Smith memorabilia that has survived in South Australia as the estate of Emily Smith was left in its entirety to "The Adelaide Revival Crusade" many years ago and I believe that nothing other than the Bible was ever returned to the family. I seem to have dim memories of various family members being a bit cranky about it all. I was only a pup at the time. Cheers Brian Stone | Stone, Brian Leith (I503)

| 76 | I (Beverley Joy Charlton (nee Smith)) have his hand-written diary written while on 6 wk steamship immigration cruise England to Melbourne 1912. Interesting…conditions terrible. 9 children died from measles on voyage. Fortunately, my dad (who was 2, and my Aunty Olive, 4) did not! They were informed of sinking of Titanic mid-voyage. Upon arrival in Melbourne, they were treated to quarantine life in tents at Portsea while everyone was disinfected. He, a carpenter, had been promised a job in Melbourne. It lasted 2 weeks. However, they did make good and finally had their own home in Preston, Melbourne. | Smith, Oliver (I490)

| 82 | Irene Annie Spedding-Smith (nee Baxter) Irene Annie (ka'Rene') was the ninth child and fourth daughter of Patrick Duncan and Jane Barnes. She was born at Penshurst in the Shire of Mount Rouse, in the County of Villiers in the State of Victoria Vic, in 1882. She spent her childhood and early teen years, in the Penshurst area. In 1902, at the age of 19 years she left Penshurst and travelled to West Australia, where she joined her older brothers, Duncan (ka Don) and Charles Farquharson at Boulder where Charles owned a bicycle sales and repair business. After a short stay in Boulder she moved to the gold mining town of Lawlers (Near Meekathara WA) and joined another of her brothers, Andrew Edward, who had opened Bakery in the town. He later extended the business to include a general store. After spending some time in Lawlers, she moved to Perth to live and obtained work at the Economic Stores, which use to be located on the northeast comer of Hay and William Streets. She eventually became a manager of one of the Departments. Her good looks and deportment were capitalized on by the store they used her as a model. Often her photograph appeared in the Store windows advertising dresses for sale. Rene used to make regular trips back to Penshurst. While she was on one of these trips she apparently made a visit Ballarat and there she met Henry George Spedding Smith (ka Hal). Hal was member of the Western Australian Police and had returned to Ballarat, on leave, to visit his family. It is quite possible that Rene first met at Lawlers as they both in the town at about the same time. Rene and Hal-were married at Ballarat on 17 August 1910. At that time Hal was stationed at Ravensthorpe WA. Rene had a very charitable disposition and took an active part in church affairs. Her bright and lovable nature won the affection of all with whom she came in contact. She was particularly revoted to her home and family. It was a great loss to her husband and two sons when she died at Fremantle in April 1934. | Baxter, Irene Annie (I1202)

| 83 | Jack married and had two sons Eric and Charles. He was an ambulance driver at the Brooke Hospital, Blackheath. The two sons never married and both worked in the City they continued to live in the house at Blackheath after Jack and his wife had died. | Vigar, John Walter (I1400)
|
| 84 | Jane Baxter (Nee Barnes) Jane Barnes has a rather colourful background. Her grandfather, Edward, was the son of a convict. And his mother (Nee Mary Whitton) was the daughter of two convicts, Edward Whitton and Ann Slater. Records of the first settlement of New South Wales disclose that Edward Whitton was convicted at Maidstone Court, in Kent, of 'Highway Robbery' and sentenced to be hanged. His conviction was later reduced to life provided that he serve in the army at Jamestown, on the west Coast of Africa, for the rest of his life. This did not occur and instead he confined to one of the Thames hulks until he was eventually transported to Botany Bay on the "Scarborough" one of the ships in the first fleet, which arrived at Botany Bay on 20 January 1788. Ann Slater was Irish and was convicted in the Dublin Court, in 1788, for larceny of a petticoat. She was sentenced to seven years transportation and was transported from Cork Cove on the 'Queen' in April 1791 and arrived at Port Jackson in 16 October 1791. The 'Queen' was one of the ships in the Third Fleet. Six years later Edward was given a pardon and a land grant of 30 acres at Mulgrave Place NSW. It is not known if Edward and Ann married but records show that a daughter, Mary 1796 and a son, William 1799, were born in the colony of NSW to Edward Whitton. Mary Whitton had two marriages. She was first married, at the age of sixteen, to ex-convicts "Richard Barnes" No F266 who arrived on the sailing ship 'Glatten' on 3 March 1803. She bore seven children to Richard unfortunately Richard died in 1826 leaving her with seven young children to rear. Five months later, in March 1827, Mary married John Eccleston at St Peter's church Campbelltown. John arrived in the colony in March 1819 on the convict sailing ship 'Lord Sidmouth.' She also bore seven children to John. Mary died at Campbelltown in November 1855, aged 59 and was interred in the family crypt, at St John's Church Campbelltown. Sources: 1.

| 86 | Jesse never maried. She lived at 41 Waterloo St, Glenelg, South Australia with her sister, Emily | Smith, Jessie (I94)
|
| 87 | Jessie Minnie Baxter (nee Millsom) Jessie was the fourth child of Harriet Swaine and Robert Millsom was born on 15 September 1875 in Carlton, VIC. Robert was a carpenter, and during his career he worked on the construction of the first theatre in Melbourne. Her mother was a midwife. Sometime after the birth of their last child, Robert purchased a small mixed farm, dairying and an orchard outside Korumburra in the Gippsland district of Victoria. Around 1894 Jessie left Korumburra and moved back to Melbourne and worked on piecework as a tailoress for a men's clothing manufacturer. On weekends she and one of her girl friends regularly go for a walk in a park close to the boarding house where they lived. It was on these walks she began to notice a debonair young man who used to ride by on a bicycle and she started to take an interest in him. Not surprisingly, he was also interested in her. As it was not the done thing for a young woman to speak to a man without being formally introduced Charles thought of a way of meeting her. One windy Sunday, she was walking in a nearby park with her girlfriend. At the time she was wearing, a hat similar to a 'Straw Boater', which had long ribbons flowing from its band. Charles who had been waiting for the opportunity to get to speak to her walked quietly up behind her and pulled the hat off her head by one of the ribbons just as the wind gusted and let the wind blow it away. Charles being the gentleman chased after the hat and brought it back to her. He then introduced himself as Charles Baxter. He also had a friend with him who was keen on Jessie's girlfriend. So followed their courtship and eventual marriage on 24 December 1896 at Kew. Their marriage lasted until after the birth of their youngest son George White haven (weight about 12 lbs). Around the early 1930s Charles moved out of the family home for good. During the ensuing years he had several girlfriends and here is a strong suggestion that one of them bore him a son but it was hushed up. Jessie and Charles never divorced and she continued to live in the family home at 23 Vale Rd, Mt Lawley, until she sold it in 1952 and moved to Beverley WA. At this stage Dorothy and Norman where were partners in the leasehold of the Freemasons' Hotel along with Jessie who was a silent partner. Although they lived separate lives Jessie Charles still appeared as husband and wife at public functions connected with his parliamentary duties. She was a long time member and officer beared in the Country Womens' Association. She was also a keen Croquet player in her later years. After the hotel lease expired, Dorothy and Norman moved back to Perth, Jessie purchased a house in Attadale, a southern suburb of Perth and resided there until her death in 1957. | Millsom, Jesse Minnie (I914)
