Judge Neal Macrossan, Brisbane, ca. 1945
-
Vesna Verencevic said:
Macrossan was by nature a reserved man. Some even thought that his temperament was austere. He made the transition from the rough and tumble of jury advocacy to the stricter values required of him on the bench. The years of his chief justiceship saw the emergence of Queensland's modern legal profession which is almost entirely a product of university law schools. Survived by his son and four daughters, Macrossan died of complications arising from emphysema and asthma on 30 December 1955 in South Brisbane; he was accorded a state funeral, at which Archbishop (Sir) James Duhig officiated, and was buried in Nudgee cemetery.

Nancy Nickolls was my mother, so the date would be nearer 2012 as she was born in 2010. Hugh Guthrie

Hugh Guthrie Dear Hugh..thanks for that information. Dating photographs can sometimes be difficult and we always appreciate additional information that helps us date them more accurately. Wuld you be able to let us know which one of the children is Nancy? We will update the approximate date of the photographs and also identify which child is Nancy and which is Beth. Thank you once again.
