The Tumut and Adelong Times 5 Sep 1939
OBITUARY MR. GEORGE OSWALD BLOMLEY The sudden death of Mr. George O. Blomley, mine host of the Union Hotel, Tumbarumba, on Saturday night spread quite a pall over the alpine town, for the community was not aware that he was in ill-health, and his body was not discovered until half-an-hour after death. At about 11 o'clock he was seized with pains in the chest and went upstairs to get some powders to give relief. Albout half-an-hour afterwards his wife missed him and when they went looking for him he was found on the floor, having evidently fallen forward on his face. Previously he had not complained of being unwell. Heart seizure was the cause of death. Deceased was a most amiable and com panionable man, a born, boniface and was popular with all classes. He was an Oddfellow and a Buffalo, and at the burial brethren of those orders read their separate services after Rev. H. J. Velvin, Batlow, had read the C. of E. rites. Mr. Velvin also conducted a short service at the church where the casketed remains were taken on Sunday morning. The local Light Horse formed a guard of honor at the cemetery. A sorrowing wife and one daughter, Doris (now Mrs. Wallace Heinecke), mourn their irreparable loss. Two sons, Thomas (killed at the Great War) and Ivo (dead seven years from war disabil ities) predeceased him. The latter's wife has since lived with her father and mother-in-law, assisting in the management of the hotel. One bro ther, William of Tumbarumba, aged 84, is also living at Tumbarumba. De ceased spent the boyhood part of his life in Tumut.

This public tree has about 60,100 people. Every person in the tree is related by birth or marriage to at least one other person in the tree - no strays. The people in the tree come mainly from four projects.
  1. My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000
  2. Canberra and Queanbeyan Pioneers. The next 30,000 begun about 2004. Sourced almost entirely from HAGSOC's excellent 'Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan'. The project began when I decided to add siblings, spouses and parents for a relation with an entry in the Register. 12 years work.
  3. Wagga Pioneers. I moved to Wagga and thought I would extend the Queanbeyan project by adding people from Wagga Wagga & District Family History Society's 'Pioneers of Wagga Wagga and District'. About 10,300 people added over about a year.
  4. Tumut Valley Pioneers. During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, I decided to extend the above projects by adding pioneers of the Tumut Valley. Initial sources were Snowden's 'Pioneers of the Tumut Valley' and 'Relict of ... Lives of Pioneering Women of Tumut and District'. Excellent references published by Tumut Family History Group. I've also added material from newspapers of the time - especially, death records, obituaries and weddings from 'Tumut and Adelong Times'. This project is in its early stage and might take a few years. I plan to extend to the upper Monaro (Adaminaby, Kiandra, Cooma, Jindabyne).
I upload new information to this website about every 3 months. My motivation for these projects is to provide public information for people seeking to trace ancestors and what became of them. Much of the information I provide can be difficult to find.
If you find errors - anything incorrect (dates, places, wrong parents, wrong children), and you have evidence, I would love to fix them. Or, if you have information that would extend my projects, do not hestiate to contact me on the email link below. I do not publish information on living people - which means I'm not much interested in people born after about 1920, and I usually distrust material from before about 1770 without extremely good sources.
