Shot for goal during a soccer match at Lang Park in Brisbane, ca. 1937

from State Library of Queensland

• Mark Pringle said:

  The team in the dark jerseys is likely to be Latrobe as Lang Park was their home ground during the 1930's as sub-tenants of the Queensland Soccer Council which held the main lease. The team in the lighter jerseys is Bundamba Rangers and the goalkeeper leaping for the ball is Dan Roderick. Source: www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1714423832031355&set=basw...

Latrobe Ladies' Football Club, 1921

from State Library of Queensland

• Peter Eedy said:

  Latrobe Ladies FC was Brisbane's first women's soccer club, formed in June 1921. Together with players from other new teams (Brisbane City and Brisbane Ladies) they played a North Brisbane v South Brisbane representative match on Saturday 24 September 1921, before 10,000 spectators at The Gabba (North won 2-0) This was the earliest known official women's soccer football match played in Australia

• State Library of Queensland said:

  Peter Eedy Interesting history. Do you know much about women Soccer clubs? It would be great to capture this Queensland sport history. Peter you could be a guest blogger through writing a page on this history, with book references and hopefully more images from our collection to add volume to your story. If you are interested contact qldmemory@slq.qld.gov.au to sharing your story and research.

  Sorry, I didn't see this post until now (only two years later!) Re local women's football - academic and football historian Lee McGowan has created this wonderful website www.withtheballatherfeet.com.au/

  The O'Brien's on West Quay, now Ashe Quay.

  One of the shots of Baby is commissioned by Col. Butcher, Eastlands, Tramore An uncle, perhaps? Their mother is apparently named Eily in the census (Lily, perhaps?), and is only 25, so the 1901 might show her maiden name. Wow, 344 Eilys in 1901! She wasn't Eily Butcher, though, or at least is not in the Census. Perhaps Col. Butcher's wife was an O'Brien? Or perhaps the family were in England, as Butcher was an English army officer...
