  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    This is a wonderful collection! You have transposed the photographer's middle and last names in the text (above) on all 19 images in this set. The set name is correct.

    This is from the 1914 tranche and must have been misfiled.

    The negative is numbered "3015-7" and we are currently in "8385". The sequential numbers appear to correspond to batches developed. The first number goes up one as each batch is developed and the second, smaller number is the sequence of negatives in that batch.

Funeral procession of Rev G E Rowe Brisbane 1926

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    "DEATH OF THE REV. DR. ROWE. A NOTABLE CAREER. A host of personal friends and Methodists throughout Australia will learn with deep regret that the Rev. Dr. George E. Rowe, superintendent minister of the Albert-street Methodist Church, died suddenly on October 27. Dr. Rowe had been attending the Methodist Synod at Nundah, and subsequently made a call on a sick parishioner. After leaving the home of this resident he complained of being very unwell, and was conveyed by a friend back to the parishioner's residence, where he died shortly afterward. The late Rev. Dr. Rowe, who was 68 years of age, was born in Scorrier, Cornwall, on August 26, 1858, to humble parents. He received his early training at one of the English Wesleyan Colleges and came out to Australia as a very young man. His first appointment was to South Australia in 1881, and after spending several years leading South Australian circuits he was transferred to Western Australia at the time that the gold rush occurred in that State. He was appointed to the Perth circuit, where he spent 13 years, and where he built a fine church and a splendid block of buildings that stand today as a monument to his organizing ability. It was while he was engaged in the Western State that he inaugurated the Sisters of the People, and during the epidemic of typhoid that spread throughout the country, he sent Sisters to every part of the State to nurse the people. He was elected the first President of the West Australian Methodist Conference in 1900. His mission work in Western Australia was very successful, and in 1905 he received an invitation to become superintendent of the Central Methodist Mission, Albert-street, Brisbane. His work in that church is well known throughout Queensland, and its progress was steadily maintained during the 20½ years that he ministered there. His love for his church was deep-rooted and true. One of his ambitions was to see it clear of debt, and he lived to see that accomplished last Sunday when the 79th anniversary of the church was celebrated." - from the Queenslander 06 Nov 1926 (nla.gov.au) Source: vwma.org.au/explore/people/310401
