Personal Notes:

When Lizzie's parents left Bega and followed Uncle William north to Mullumbimby in 1908 she was thought to be too delicate to travel at that time, so, she remained in Candelo with her Bower grandparents and Arthur's sisters. She came later and was also known as Betty. She married Reginald Maurice Curnow 25/10/1922 at Mullumbimby.
