    Thanks so much pennylrichardsca for your extensive research into this family and for providing the links for those who may want more information. Amazing stories. We'll fill in the names for this record the next time we update.

    Waghorn and Sons - Mackay 1930 -1980 Waghorn's and Sons cordial factory was commenced on 1 April 1930 from a factory located at 64 Gordon Street. The Waghorn's took over the business from the Balzer family. Even though the Balzers were only in business only 9 months, Waghorn's continued the Balzer's Aerated Waters name for a few years afterward. The business won the first prize at the Queensland Royal National Show in Brisbane in 1940 for Waghorn’s special dry ginger ale. They also held the franchise for the "Jusfrute" drinks in Mackay for many years. The Waghorn family continued the business until Charles Waghorn, one of the ‘sons’ retired and sold the business to Charlie Takagaki on 1 July 1967. The business continued to trade under the name of Waghorn and Sons and was later moved from Gordon Street to a new factory in Victoria Street in 1979. In 1980 the business was taken over by Harrup’s Mackay. The old factory in Gordon Street was demolished in mid-1984 to make way for extensions to the New Pioneer Motors car yard.
