Martin and Farr reunion she organised in Ballarat
Edwin, like his father, became a carpenter. His wife Louisa's family
owned a bakery business in Ballarat. Edwin and his family moved from
Ballarat to Northcote in Melbourne some time between 1885 and 1888,
when Les was born. They lived in Charles St, and Edwin was a carpenter
and staircase maker. His workbench from his home is still kept by the
person who bought his house after his death, and some tools are still
in the family.
When Edwin died in 1943 he left an estate of £680 real
estate and £119 cash. 52 Dearebin St went to Louisa for life,
then proceeds to surviving daughters.
