Notes |
- Herman and Maria lived on the family farm until 1914. Harry and Minna moved to Joyce St, Ipswich in 1918 and Harry learnt the trade of carpentry. They later moved temporarily to Manly while Harry built a home at Greenslopes and they moved into it in 1922/23. He continued building until about 1927.
Because of the depression they decided to return to farming. They moved to Mt Walker West and ran a dairy farm until 1930. They moved from Mt Walker to Roadvale/Tallagella in 1932 and to Rosewood in 1934. In 1936 Harry and Mina moved back to Greenslopes and Harry continued building from the outbreak of the war until the end of the war. He worked on defence work and boats for wages. In 1946 Harry went back to contracting in a company with his sons Noel and Selwyn. He retired at the age of 70 at Bundaberg.
His wife Mina died on 3 August 1985 and Harry continued to live in the family home until Christmas 1988, he then decided to enter the Pioneer Home at Bundaberg.
Herman played the violin and Mina played piano for local dances. In 1946 he formed a contracting company with sons Noel and Selwyn. Herman and Mina retired to Bundaberg. (Source: Win Brighton).
