Young Keady family at Wonthaggi about 1915

Blogging has been a bit quiet lately. But expect a bit more action over the coming months, with a focus on the Keady Family at Wonthaggi. Some of you may well have seen these before, but it seemed like a good idea to share them around to the wider family.

Thomas Patrick Keady(1874-1946) and Lillian Crawford (1881-1962) moved from Albury to Wonthaggi or Powlett River as it was then called in 1908 or early 1909. Wonthaggi was not proclaimed as a town until 1 August 1910.

This family portrait of Tom and Lillian’s young family was taken about 1915 based on the age of Fred Keady who is the youngest, born in 1913. Fred is sitting on the tall table, 2nd from the left, next to his eldest brother Jack.

Left to right. John Dennis “Jack” born 1907, Frederick Ivan “Fred” born 1913, Robert William “Bob” born 1911, Thomas Patrick “Tom” born 1909, and Frances Lillian “Francie” born 1910 sitting at the front.
