Neighbours: Next door - Tom & Kate Evans, a childless older couple on the north side. Tom was a WW1 veteran. On the southern side, were Jack & Glennie Butler & son Tony. Jack was part indigenous from Tasmania and when he was a small baby, he was snatched by a wedge-tailed eagle who got his claws into Jack’s nappy.
