OBITUARY MR. HARRY DEAR. The lamentable death, at Goulburn Hospital, of Mr. Harry Dear, son of Mrs. Dear, of Tumut, caused a gloom to lie cast over Tumut when the news was received. His age was 27 years. Harry, together with his brother Jack, served through the war. Thirteen years ago he was operated upon for appendicitis, and it is thought that this was the underlying cause of an abscuss which formed recently in the vicinity of the appendix, and caused his death. . For the past few years, Mr. Dear was in charge, of the Argalong School, and three weeks ago was transferred to Dalton (near Goulburn). He wus admitted to the hospital a week prior to his death, and was operated upon. His mother, sister, and fiancee (Miss Dorothy Beegling) were at the bedside. The young couple were to have been married next Easter. The sympathy of the people of Tumut goes out to the bereaved. Harry was a particularly quiet and decent chap, for whom everybody had the highest regard hereabouts. He conducted the local cordial works for his mother, and was the mainstay, of the family. The remains were brought to Tumut on Wednesday, and interred in the R.C. portion of the new cemetery, the cortege being a lengthy one, including a large number of returned comrades. The Rev. Father Sharkey offlclated at the graveside, and Mr. H, W, Baker was the undertaker.

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.
