Moothandella Station homestead home of Charles and Lillian Cartwright, 1924

  Charles Hartley Cartwright was born on the Hodgkinson mining fields where his father was a merchant. In 1905 he married Lily Hammond of Hammond Downs, daughter of Ned Hammond and granddaughter of Frances Hammond (nee Frances Tully) of Tenham, who was the first white woman on Coopers Creek in 1869. They had six children, four sons, and two daughters. The family became very well known throughout the Western areas, so much so that in 1926 when they left Jundah to take up residence on their property 'Moothandella', the district gave a public send-off in Jundah Hall and the presentation was inscribed 'To Jundah's greatest citizen'. Charlie, as he was known, besides being to the fore in every community activiity, always had a helping hand to anyone in bother. It was no secret that the families of seasonal workers owed their existence to his generosity, some of which, of course, was not repaid. In 1926, Charlie sold the store to Mr Alf Armstrong and moved the family to 'Moothandella', where a huge new homestead was being built, this being completed in 1927. His wife died in 1939 at the age of 56 of pneumonia. Charlie died in 1960 when a fire raced through his home at 2.00am. The fire killed Charlie, his daughter-in-law and his two granddaughters. Although the war caused the breakup of the family with only George remaining at home, all survived and would visit at times of holidays and reunions. The family will always be remembered for their hospitality and helpfullness. Source: ehive.com/collections/3492/objects/77701/charles-hartley-...
