Personal Notes:
From ‘fox family history’ - FREDERICK YOUNG FOX - In this section we will talk a little about him and his life and discuss his family later.

He too was born at Jerrara, on 13 April 1856 and educated at a private school conducted by the Rev Welby at Goulburn. He worked for a short time with the Bank of New South Wales. In 1876 he accompanied his brother Thomas with cattle to central Queensland and then they purchased "Bombandy" from Mr John Shannon. The property at this stage was completely undeveloped and without improvements. The first house was a bark and slab hut on the Isaacs River near a fairly large Blacks camp. It was on the road from the Peak Downs Copperfields to the coast at St Lawrence.

After Tom's death at Winton in 1882, Frederick Young Senior continued to manage "Bombandy". On 18 August 1884 he married Margaret Isobella Craig at "Croydon Station." She was born in Nelson, New Zealand on I June 1864. Her mother married again, a man named Holmes. They lived for a time in America and a son was born, Fred Holmes. Margaret Isobella was at that time a Governess at "Croydon." She was a small, dark and pretty lass.

After a time her mother, Mrs Holmes and stepbrother, Fred came to live at "Bombandy". Fred Holmes was killed at "Bombandy" after being thrown from a horse. Granny Holmes was a strong character - for many years she made the homestead at "Bombandy~/" all that a home should be. There was little she could not do - clothes were made on the station, even the moleskin trousers. She taught her children and grandchildren how to preserve fruit and cure meat. She was popular in the district and respected for her ability and energy. She became very friendly with Mrs John Shannon and spent considerable time with her at "Saltbush". Granny Holmes died in Brisbane about 1921 and was buried at the Dutton Park cemetery.

Fred, then not 26 years of age, rode overland from "Bombandy" to Winton taking with him 30 horses, 3 packhorses and a black boy. It was considered a great feat of bushmanship, even for 1882.
