Extract from "Hamilton: A Western District History" by Donald Garden, p. 107

"North of Hamilton, towards the Wannon, a newcomer to the district produced one of the most remarkable examples of evasion of the Selection Acts. Thomas Bromell (1832-1887) [sic] came to Victoria in 1853 and soon after took up a farm near Geelong. The source of his capital is not known, but in 1860 he moved to Hamilton where he selected land on Skene. He added to this in the next few years, by selection and by purchase from selectors, various blocks from the Kanawalla, Skene and Mockanger runs until he had accumulated 14000 acres known as Hensley Park. Bromell's rapid emergence as a man of property and influence in the district was reflected by his election to the Shire Council, of which he was President in 1874, and to the Legislative Council in the same year."
____
The source of capital for Thomas BROMELL referred to above is believed to be from three sources. Firstly, he was successful at the Ballarat diggings during the year he spent there (late 1853 to late 1854) leaving just prior to the Eureka Stockade uprising. He moved on to the Avoca diggings where he was once again successful. Thirdly, on his return to Geelong, he set himself up as a cartage contracter which in that period when money was very easy to acquire was a very lucrative occupation, particularly when many fellow selectors needed to move into the western district of Victoria.

17224 The RAF B-24 Liberator bomber (Code No. EW124) on which he was a crewman disappeared on a mission in Myanmar (Burma). The crash site was located with considerable difficulty by a British Army patrol after WWII had ended. The patrol only located the remains of four crewmen who they buried on site. Very little of the crewmen or the aircraft was recognisable. The crew are still to this day officially listed as missing in action.

At the time of this accident 358 Squadron, RAF was based at Jashore (Jessore) in India operating as a special duties squadron. Jashore (Jessore) is now located in Bangladesh but was still in India during WWII.

Obituary

Mr. A.W. WALTER

The hand of time has removed from the district one of its oldest and most highly respected pioneers in the person of Mr. Ambrose Wilcox Walter. Not only as a pioneer was the late Mr. Walter respected, but as one to whom all in the district could go for advice at all times. This district has lost a friend and champion, in one who fought for the interest of the Wimmera in the early days of settlement. All honor to the heart that is still.

The late Mr. A.W. Walters was born in Devonshire, England, on the 11th. April 1833. He came out to Victoria in the 'Marchioness of Londonderry' in 1853 with his uncle, his parents following a few years later. For a time he worked on the Barrabool Hills, Geelong. A little later he, like many others, tried his fortune on the goldfields, but met with little success [?]. He could relate in detail many incidents of the Ballarat riot. On one occasion, when he and his mates were returning to their camp, they found that two of their party had been bound and robbed of their belongings by Melville, the bushranger. Not being successful on the goldfields, he returned to the Geelong district, with his youngest brother, starting a butchering business on the Barrabool Hills. This venture proved very successful. In 1862 Mr. Walter sold his interest in the business to his brother, and entered into farming pursuits. It was in the same year that he married Mary Ann Smale, the only daughter [?] of Mr. Thos. Smale, of Barrabool Hills. He continued to work the farm for 11 years. Being now anxious to secure more land, and make provision for a family that was growing, he was attracted to the Wimmera. He selected land about the year 1872, and shifted the family, which consisted of his wife and five sons, in the beginning of 1874. From that time up to the time of his death he practically lived on the land which he first selected. For about four years he lived in the Casterton district, where he had purchased a property, but returned again to the Wimmera and continued to work his property for a number of years. About seven years ago he decided to retire from active life, and settled in Geelong, having leased his property to two of his sons, but was a regular visitor to the Noradjuha district, with which he kept in close touch.

Mr. Walter took a keen interest in all public matters. In the Geelong district he occupied the position of councillor in the Barrabool Shire, and very soon after his arrival in the Wimmera he was elected as one of the councillors to the Wimmera Shire. From that time until his retirement seven years ago he held important positions in the Wimmera and Arapiles Shire Councils, and also the Western Wimmera Irrigation and Water Supply Trust, his term as a representative of various municipalities extending over 41 years. He continued to be a member of the Western Wimmera Trust right up to the time of its abolition in 1908, and his photograph appears in the group that was taken when the functions of that body were handed over to the State Rivers and Water Supply Commission. Amongst his colleagues at the time who have since gone the way of the flesh were Messrs. John Bushby and John Cunningham, both of whom were prominently identified with the fortunes of the Wimmera Shire Council.

Mr. Walter saw, and participated in, the fight between selector and squatter. Writing in the Horsham "Times" of November 20, 1914, Mrs. M. Bodey mentions this phase of early life. "Time" she wrote, "evens up all things, and the people who are enjoying prosperous times now are apt to forget that they owe much to those who first blazed the track. No doubt the squatters who saw that which through long use they regarded as their own wrested from them, felt rather injured, and while some bowed with good grace to the inevitable, others displayed their resentment in a childish fashion. For example, when Mr. Matthew Bodey, the first selector to be elected as a councillor of the Wimmera Shire took his seat at the Council table, the two squatters remaining on the Council resigned their seats rather than sit with a selector. One of the vacancies thus created was filled by another selector, Mr. Ambrose Walter of Noradjuha." The deceased also assisted in most local institutions, the Horsham A and P Society, Mechanics Institute, the Noradjuha Cemetery Trust, and the Noradjuha to Horsham Railway League all received his support. In connection with the last named he spared neither time nor trouble, and was one of a deputation from Noradjuha and Natimuk that got the final promise from the Minister of Railways that the line would be constructed, his colleagues on that occasion being Messrs. A.E. Beard, J. Kuse, and James Keyte (representing Natimuk), and A. Sinclair, H. Kruger, and himself (representing Noradjuha). Many years ago he was appointed a justice of the peace, which position he held to the time of his death. He was an ardent supporter of the Methodist Church, and held the position of trustee to the Bible Christian Church at Horsham before the union took place. He was also a trustee of the church at Noradjuha and at the annual conference often represented the Noradjuha circuit. His hospitality was well known. His home was always open to any minister, irrespective of denomination, and in the early days the services of the Bible Christian Church were conducted in his house until, in later years, the State school was utilised as a place of worship.

His remains were taken from the old home "Oakleigh Park" on Friday July 16th., and laid at rest in the Noradjuha cemetery. The cortege was followed by a fairly large number of representatives from all parts of the district. The Rev. E.E. Shakell of Noradjuha, conducted the burial service. The seven sons of the late Mr. Walter acted as pallbearers namely, Albert, Thomas, Ellis, Ambrose, Frederick, Sydney and Norman. In addition to the widow whose three daughters - Mrs. H.M. Fowler, Mrs. G. Nitschke, and Mrs. L.W. Cranage. A sister of the deceased, Mrs. Bromell widow of the late Hon. T. Bromell, of Hensley Park, Hamilton, survives him.

17239 Ther appears to be some doubt about the date of birth for Frank IVISON (1884-1959). IVISON Frank (I33121)
 
17240 There appears to be no birth record for Edith Amelia BROMELL. BROMELL Edith Amelia (I391)
 
17241 There appears to be two marriage registrations in the VIC BDM indexes. One in 1856 and another in 1857. Family F8067
 
17242 There are real doubts about this date of burial. The Colac Cemetery records show a possible burial on 29 Nov 1943. The FamilySearch site reveals a burial on 31 Aug 1914 at an unknown cemetery. Both dates are potentially OK. HEARD Eliza Jane (I32032)
 
17243 There is a problem with the birth date as it is shown as 4 days after her brother George's birth. BENOY Georgiannie (I41092)
 
17244 There is considerable conjecture regarding two of the childern of this marriage. It appears that John TREMEERE and the first James TREMEERE were twins as they were both baptised on the same day. The question arises as to why would the second James TREMEERE be so named when the other James appears to be alive and kicking? Family historians often come across parents in the situation where a later child is identically named as a 'replacement' for an earlier offspring who has passed away. TREMEERE John (I3741)
 
17245 There is considerable doubt about the origins of Richard. Some say that he was born in Hartland DEV in Feb 1644/45 the son of Lawrence WALTER (c. 1606-?) and Susanne GUISTE (?-?). Others say his origins are in Wales which I think is very doubtful. If anyone can help in certifying his origins it would be a great relief to many interested family historians. WALTER Richard (I1900)
 
17246 There is considerable doubt about this death but I would believe that this Jane TREWIN must surely haved died prior to the birth of her sister, another Jane TREWIN in 1848. TREWIN Jane (I18877)
 
17247 There is doubt about whether Margaret SYMONS was buried or cremated at Fawkner Memorial Park. BURT Margaret (I28028)
 
17248 There is possibly another child of the union of Kevin Lawrence LENEHAN and Lana (----). LENEHAN Kevin Lawrence (I1237)
 
17249 There is some doubt about the dates of death and burial for Anne EASTAWAY (c. 1795-1850) as the headstone image on which she is remembered is difficult to read. EASTAWAY Anne (I24905)
 
17250 There is some doubt about the end date of service. Cpl. MELHUISH was wounded at least once in the chest. MELHUISH William Herbert (I25862)
 
17251 There is some doubt about the events surrounding this burial as the headstone at Coghills Creek Cemetery refers to 'James Alexander WALTER, died in infancy'. WALTER Alexander McIntosh (I8106)
 
17252 There is some doubt about the exact date of death of Richard Walter HORN. The possible dates appear to be the 6th. or 7th. of November 1897. HORNE Richard Walter (I1520)
 
17253 There is some evidence that Earle George DOLBY successfully bailed out of the stricken Lancaster and reached the ground only to be beaten to death by irate Germans. DOLBY Earle George, DFC (I34318)
 
17254 There seems to be some doubt as to whether Mary OSBORNE's second given name was Ann or Grace. OSBORNE Mary Grace (I18426)
 
17255 This birth date is somewhat uncertain as the FreeBDMs web site shows a birth date of Quarter 3, 1839. REED John Cottle (I20272)
 
17256 This church is often referred to as St. James Old Cathedral, particularly after it was move brick by brick to the current sight adjacent to the Flagstaff Gardens. It became a cathedral in 1847 when the diocese of Melbourne was founded. In 1891 it reverted to being a parish church when the current St. Paul's Cathedral was consecrated. Family F1206
 
17257 This family is extremely difficult to sort out - too many PASCOES in this area of Cornwall. Any assistance would be more than welcome! PASCOE Henry (I38682)
 
17258 This headstone is no longer visible in this cemetery. However a transcription of the headstone recorded many years ago is still available as below:

Jane
the wife of William Jewell
Yeoman of this parish and
daughter of the late John
