Today, my old mate, Sonny Gough, sent a newspaper snippet regarding my Great Uncle Oliver.
I always knew that my Grandfather and his brothers were all cricket fanatics. My Grandfather had a very large framed photo of Don Bradman hanging on the wall of his shed and I always wanted that picture, no one knows what happened to it.
Anyway, a bit of Family history to share from 1897.
Colonist, Volume XL, Issue 9017, 10 November 1897
And photo of Great Uncle Oliver Currin
