1939 Henry Frederick Mould (1868 - 1939)
Henry Frederick Mould, a grazier of Middlingbank, married Ellen Evans on 31 St January 1900. Ellen, born in 1875 in Cooma, was a daughter of pioneers Robert and Ellen Evans who settled in the Berridale district in the early 1860's, naming their property "Kiah Lodge"
After their marriage, Henry and Ellen lived in the Monaro District where their eight children were born. In 1926 they moved to a property near Guyra on the New England Tablelands of northern NSW. Following the death of her husband in 1939, Ellen returned to live in Cooma where she died almost thirty years later (18/07/1968). Her remains were conveyed to Guyra for burial beside those of her late husband in the Guyra cemetery.

HENRY FREDERICK MOULD. 1868-1939.
Henry Frederick Mould, known as "Harry", was born at Adaminaby. He married Ellen Evans in 1900 and had eight children. In about 1926 the family moved to Walcha Road - the older boys remained in the Cooma district.
ELLEN MOULD - Debbie Gilbert Collection
The trip, to Walcha Road, was made by motor car, a Hudson which had previously been owned by Bob Evans who was a brother to Ellen. The driver was Dick Evans. Sometime later another move was made to a property called "Newenden" near Tenterden. This was a sheep property and was worked by Harry and the boys - Seddon, Bob and Ernie. Of course, lots of other jobs such as domestic chores, gardening, turkey and chook rearing and feeding the poddy lambs were done by Ellen, Dorothy, Ella and Flo.
I was only a small child when I first met my grandfather, Harry, my mother, Dorothy, used to take her small children to visit at "Newenden". It was a very long trip from Sawtell, via service car, to Armidale where we were all met by Grandfather Harry, driving his car to "Newenden". Harry was rather a quiet man but an absolute "gentleman". Some of the things I remember were - he mostly had a shed with lots of rabbit skins drying and getting ready to be sold. There was often an outdoor fire burning with a grate over the top and on this there was a boiler in which rabbit carcasses were being cooked for the dogs. He would take us for short rides in the dray, which for "town" kids was exciting. Another time Harry arrived home from the paddocks just to show us kids; he had baby rabbits in the crown of his upturned hat. Sadly, for all the family, Harry took ill with pneumonia and died in Guyra hospital just two hours before his birthday. Harry's grave is at Ollera cemetery, not very far from "Newenden".

Reginald
George
Mould
4th Generation Australian
Born 17th November 1900 with a love for the land where he was born on the Monaro, the eldest son of Henry & Ellen Mould and great-grandson of the first Doctor of Medicine (Dr George Yonge Mould) in that district of NSW, the young Reg attended Fort Street Boys High School where he received a great grounding in literature and grammar and for a while contemplated school teaching as his vocation.
REG AND LESLIE MOULD - Debbie Gilbert Collection
(His children were often taken to task if, in his hearing, were not correctly speaking the "King's English"). Reg devoted much time, travel and research in compiling the family history, stemming from Dr. Mould, for the interest of future generations.
At about the time of his marriage to Marjorie Feilen, Reg purchased a grazing property situated half way between Berridale and Jindabyne on top of Varney's Range in the Snowy Mountains. Because the previous owners were of the name "Kelly", Reg deemed it appropriate to call his newly acquired property "Glenrowan". Over the years, due to Reg's foresight and management plans, "Glenrowan" earned a good reputation in the area for its pasture improvement and the production of fine wool Merino sheep. Testimony to this were the many silver trophies, won in annual district competitions, lined up on the sideboard in the family home.
Because Reg was too young to enlist for action in World War I, his determination to serve King and country at the next opportunity came into play in 1939 when, by not being entirely truthful about his date of birth, he enlisted to serve with the Australian Infantry Forces at the outbreak of World War II. In due course NX60239 Private Reg Mould, 9th Division/17th Battalion, set sail on the Queen Mary from Sydney and was to see active service in the Middle East and New Guinea. One of the celebrated Rats of Tobruk (1942-42), Reg was later injured in the Ed Alamein campaign on 23/10/1942. This was not serious enough to see him demobilised however and he was not discharged until the war ended.
Work on "Glenrowan" had proceeded as normally as is possible in war time, with wife Marjorie, the children, other relatives, and hired help all doing their bit to keep things going. Not least of these tasks was the annual droving of the sheep to the mountain lease, and leaving them there throughout the summer months to graze thus allowing the home pastures to grow for winter feed. This practice was phased out in 1967 when the area was proclaimed as part of the Kosciusko National Park.
REG AND MARGE MOULD - Debbie Gilbert Collection
Shearing was in full swing at "Glenrowan" when Reg died suddenly of a cerebral hemorrhage in the early hours of 25/11/9172, one week after his 72nd birthday. It was as well that he didn't know about Gough Whitlam's election to Prime Minister of Australia the following week, but there were many things Reg still wanted to accomplish before his already full life was cut short. However, one of his favourite ditties did run along the lines of our designated life span being "three score and ten years".
In his plan to ensure that "Glenrowan" remained under family name ownership, Reg had bequeathed the property to his five grandsons bearing the surname of Mould. His son Harry (Boyd) was appointed to carry on as caretaker/trustee until the youngest of the five attained his majority, by which time they were already settled into other occupations with none of the five in the position to, nor with the desire to buy out the shares of the other four. It was a sad day for the family members who regarded "Glenrowan" as home when it was sold to an investment speculator who had the property sub-divided into smaller lots.
There was however a subsidiary property on the Cooma side of Berridale, namely "Glenbrook", which was designated to Peter and Matthew Mould within the laws of the bequest. Peter later purchased the share held by Matthew, but finding it unviable for a livelihood, sold to a neighbour in the year 2000.
Marjorie Mabel Feilen Marjorie attended primary school in Cooma. Fortunately the family home "Dry Farm" was within walking distance, as there was no school bus in those days. When it came time for her secondary education, Marjorie went to live with her Granny Feilen at Wingello and attended high school at Bowral. Her one claim to fame was that the boy who became Sir Donald Bradman was a fellow pupil. On her return to "Dry Farm" her duties consisted of helping her mother in the house, but especially in the minding of her baby sisters, Gwen and Jo. She learned to cook, sew and knit but one of her greatest pleasures throughout her life was gardening, something she inherited from both parents.
- Debbie Gilbert Collection
Marjorie spent almost forty-five years of her life married to Reg. In the early years it was a lonely existence for her, "Glenrowan" being quite isolated and without access to a reliable motor vehicle until after the war, and then even the smart '38 Oldsmobile took a lot of coaxing before it would start on a cold morning. Marjorie possibly accepted that the house was devoid of modern conveniences because she had not been raised to expect them. Electricity did not exist in that region until the advent of the Snowy Mountains Scheme, meaning "Glenrowan" wasn't switched on until about 1957/58.
MARG AND JEAN MOULD - Marion Mould Collection
In later years, being a member of the Red Cross, the CWA, and the Church of England Ladies Guild in Berridale provided social inter-action locally, but Marjorie loved to go to Cooma for a day's shopping as it included visits to relatives, most especially her mother and father. In their frail and elderly years Marjorie spent as much time as she possibly could, helping and caring for them.
About nine months after Reg died, Marjorie was able to buy a house at 25 Blairgowrie Avenue, Cooma, to which she retired and enjoyed the comforts of life which "Glenrowan" had never offered her. Town life was new to her, but dare it be said that the last twenty years of her life were possibly the happiest and most contended she had ever known. Marjorie created her own memorial in a garden which was a showplace of love, toil and courage, but of which unfortunately, only photographs remain as testimony.

On leaving school he went to Brookfield Park to continue his interest in farm life, travelling from Cooma on his pushbike with his weekly supplies.
ROB, IAN AND DAVID - Marion Mould Collection This was a mistake and he soon knew his calling was working with timber. He trained with a well known builder Mr Frank Mawson and after a few years he started a business of his own, doing private and Public Works jobs all over the district. The first house he built was for his mother and the next was his own and he also built one for David and Joan. The Glenrowan woolshed was also rebuilt for Reg Mould.
ROB, MARION, STEPHANIE AND DIANNE Marion Mould Collection
Rob Leslie MOULD married Marion Rachel Jamieson at St Paul’s Church Cooma on the 6/10/1956 (same day as their son-in-law Roy Bartlett was born) and they moved into their unfinished home in 1957. Rob was a hard worker and continued long hours to finish their home in a short time. Stephanie and Diane were both born at Cooma District Hospital where Rob had worked in earlier years.
STEPHANE, DIANNE, ANDREW, DOONA, GILLIAN, DEBBIE AND CHRIS - Marion Mould Collection
In 1982 ill health slowed Rob’s life down with a heart attack followed by heart surgery. He was very happy to get back to his building jobs after about 6 months. Rob’s other great loves were native plants and playing music. In 1988 he had another heart attack but sadly the surgeon couldn’t help this time and he wasn’t able to go back to work. When he wasn’t well enough to go out gardening he would play his guitar. He would play for Hymn at St Paul’s Church and also played at concerts and for people in retirement homes. When Rosanna (the 1st grandchild) was 3 Rob mad a tape with her singing along with him. He only knew Rosanna and Helen; Tim was born four-month after his death. It is very noticeable how much Tim’s interest relate to what Rob’s interests were in his lifetime. On the 17/5/1992 Rob went to play tennis with his friends in Merimbula and had a fatal heart attack while playing tennis. The service was held in St Paul’s Cooma and burial was at Gegederick Cemetery Berridale, he loved the hills and trees out there.
STEPHANIE AND ROY WITH JEAN, JOAN, ROBIN, DIANNE, IAN, MARION AND ROB. - Marion Mould Collection
Marion Rachel Jamieson born 1/7/1934 at Cooma District Hospital I met Rob when I was 16 and it only took a short time for me to know that he was the man that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. When Rob asked my parents for my hand in marriage when I was 17, my father’s rely was she is only a child. We had our two lovely daughters and had enjoyed working at things together to finished our home, garden and running our building business. Rob always gave me great credit for helping him, which I don’t think, was not quite right because I couldn’t do the manual work.
In 1964 he decided it was time for us to have a weekender at Merimbula. He brought the land and built the house and told me it was mine. We have enjoyed that house for many years with our children and our grandchildren. We have seen a lot of Australia together but Rob’s one wish was to take me to his grandparent’s property “Newenden”, Tenderden. We had a very wonderful time at “Newenden”, just 2 weeks before he past away. Each year I was married to Rob seemed to get better. I thank the Lord for the happy times I am now living on the memories and enjoying my daughters, son-in-law and grandchildren.

Dorothy, as she was known, was born on 2 February 1908. She was the eldest daughter in the family of Henry Frederick Mould and his wife, Ellen Evans.
Not much is known of her life in infancy but just to survive in those days was an achievement.
Dorothy attended school in Adaminaby, and as she had said - many times - how cold it was to go to and from school, especially when she used to get large chilblains on her feet and heels. Because there were a number of boys in the family, I have been told by Dorothy, that she was the victim of many, of the boys, so called jokes.

When Dorothy was in her late teen's part of the family moved to Walcha Road. It was there that Dorothy obtained her drivers licence. The story of that episode, as told to me, was that her father and the local licence policeman stayed at the station office and told her to do the test drive up a steep hill that had a big bend in it. Whilst Dorothy was doing the test the policeman was telling her father that the last person to that test had run off the road! However, Dorothy negotiated the road successfully and gained her licence. She was a good driver and drove until she was a fair age.
In due course the family left Walcha Road for "Newenden", a sheep property near Tenterden, Guyra.

It was there that my mother, Dorothy, met and subsequently married my father, Norman Ross in October 1928. After the wedding they settled into a new cottage, built by Norman, at the seaside village of Sawtell.
Times were quite hard, but the pair of them were fairly resilient. Dorothy liked family visitors and consequently there were many occasions of people calling in for short holidays and lots of laughs and stories.
Life was full for Dorothy, at Sawtell, with her four children - Helen, born at Armidale, Gordon, Geoff and Heather, all born at Coffs Harbour. She also had a house cow which she had to milk.

In 1938 Norman took a job as Health and Building Inspector with the Bellingen Shire Council. So the seaside cottage was sold and the family moved to Bellingen for sixteen years and in that time her youngest child, Donald, was born - making five children in all to care for. Because it was wartime life took on a slightly different slant for Dorothy - she was involved with the R.S.L. Women's Auxiliary, Red Cross and other things. Norman, who was a WW1 veteran was active in R.S.L. affairs (and Comforts Fund) and Dorothy backed him up whenever needed. These were very happy years.
From 1950 onwards, Dorothy had grandchildren being born, much to her delight. Dorothy was very good at knitting and sewing, all her life - many of the articles she made are still in the households of various family members.

Sadly, for the family and Dorothy, Norman passed away in 1954 - Dorothy being only 46 years of age with two children still at school. Fortunately, Norman had built a seaside cottage at Urunga, so Dorothy and family moved into that. In the mid 1950's Dorothy and youngest son, Donald, moved to Sydney on a temporary basis. Donald attended school in Parramatta and boarded privately while Dorothy had obtained positions as housemother at Barker College and Burnside Homes.

It was not long, however, before she was back at Urunga and joining in local activities and frequent visits from and to her families. A highlight, for both of us, was Dorothy visiting myself, and husband, Ken, when we were residing in Papua New Guinea and visiting her brother, Ernest's, grave at Lae War Cemetery.

As the years passed it became more difficult for Dorothy to care for herself, in her own home, so she then moved to Bellorana Hostel in Bellingen. Dorothy was a very active lady to the end, on 29 October 1990 she was playing bingo and on 30 October she passed away, leaving her family with very fond and lasting memories.

OBITUARY Norman A.O. Ross The community has lost an outstanding citizen in the person of Mr. Norman Allan Oglivie Ross, Health and Building Inspector to the Bellingen Shire Council, who passed away on Wednesday, August 4, 1954, at the age of 57 years. He was at work the previous week and therefore his demise, after only a few days in hospital, came as a great shock in his home and to all his friends. The late Mr. Ross was born at Inverell on May 15, 1897, and after leaving school he was employed in post-office work until the time of his enlistment in 1915 at the age of 18 years. He belonged to the First Light Horse and served in Egypt and Palestine. Returning in 1919, he took up farming pursuits in the Guyra district until 1927, when he moved to Sawtell and entered the building trade with his brother, who was a builder at this quickly developing seaside resort. In 1928, he married Miss Dorothy Mould, of Guyra, and they continued to live at Sawtell until 1938, when he was appointed Health and Building Inspector to the Bellingen Shire Council. He took a keen interest in public activities at Sawtell and while living there was a member of the R.S.S. and A.I.L.A. at Coffs Harbour. On coming to Bellingen he continued with his good citizenship, and was an active member of many organizations and held several executive positions. He was Secretary of the Bellingen Shire War and Patriotic Fund for the major part of the war years, and was untiring in his efforts for the welfare of the members of the fighting forces, while not lacking in kindly thought and consideration for those at home who were deprived of the services of their menfolk during the war period. He was a member of the Repatriation Local Committee, which at the close of the war became quite active in its efforts to have the returning servicemen rehabilitated into civilian life. Ever an enthusiastic member of the R.S.S. and A.I.L.A., he was President of the Bellingen Sub-branch for several years, and was always ready to lend a helping hand to a returned Digger. He also had much thought for the younger members of the community, and for a long period was an active member of the Parents and Citizens’ Association, while at the time of his death he was Secretary of the Bellingen Boy Scouts’ Group Committee. For many years a member of the Masonic Lodge, he was a Past Master of Lodge Raleigh at Bellingen. He was a foundation member of Bellingen Bowling Club, and also a foundation member of the Urunga Bowling Club, for, having a seaside home at Urunga, he spent most weekends there during the summer months and sought his recreation there. At the time of his death he was President of the Mid North Coast Group of Health Inspectors’ Association, which holds quarterly meetings within its own group area. Mr. Ross was always conscientious, courteous and obliging, and those qualities, coupled with his kind and genuine manner and ready wit made him a pleasing personality to have known. As evidence of the esteem in which the late Mr. Ross was held, his funeral cortege was one of the largest known in Bellingen and the beautiful floral tributes were so numerous they had to be carried from the church to the graveside in a separate conveyance. Six returned men (Messrs W.J. Glyde, H.J. Allison, A.J. Cox, L. Lee, O.W. Godwin and J. Drayton) acted as pallbearers, while R.S.L. and Masonic services were also held at the funeral. The late Mr. Ross is survived by his widow, daughters Helen (Mrs. Ken Whatson, of Berowra) and Heather, and sons Gordon (Sydney), Geoffrey and Donald (Bellingen), and the grandchildren Daphne and Heather Whatson. His elderly mother (Mrs. C. Ross, of Armidale) survives him, also his brother Donald (Sydney), and sisters Mrs. Will Vickers (Kentucky) and Mrs G. Vickers (Sydney). Two sisters predeceased him.
