Goulburn Evening Post 18 Jan 1952
OBITUARY Mr. H. Simmons The funeral of Mr. Henry Simmons, 41, who was killed in the Lake George mine on Monday night, took place at Queanbeyan on Wednesday. af ternoon, and was very largely attended. Mr. Simmons was a well known figure in Captain's Flat and had lived there a number of years. The funeral service was con ducted by Rev. G. F. Pike, of St. Phillip's Church, Bungen dore, and the burial took place in the Church of England por tion of the general cemetery, Queanbeyan. The R.A.O. Buffaloes of which order deceased was a member also conducted a service, in which lodge members took part. Mr. Simmons was working at the bottom of the general shaft on what is known as a "mucking machine," one used to collect the loose earth after an explosion. He was accident ally struck, it is understood, by stones which fell from a rising kibble (bucket) being hoisted to the surface.

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.
