Funeral procession of Inspector Watson Brisbane 1939

from State Library of Queensland

    History of the Queensland Police In 1907 The Patrol was the first motorized vessel used by the Brisbane Water Police. She was capable of 8 knots (15 km/h; 9.2 mph).[1] Constable Charles Watson and a tracker followed suspected murderer J. W. Patterson for 350 miles (560 km). They captured the fugitive but had very little food or water for the last 100 miles (160 km) of the chase.[1] A new Figure-of-8 style handcuff was introduced.[1] In 1907, Police Commissioner William Cahill and the Deputy Queensland Government Architect designed the Queensland Police Station badge based on the police cap badge of the time. Prior to this time, there was no standard way to indicate a police station. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Queensland_Police#1930s

    John Newton was my Great-Great-Grandfather. This is only the second photo I’ve been able to find of him. Thank you for this. The Belleville Library Archives assisted me to find the first photo of him.

    John Newton 1852-1930. I believe he was Belleville’s third Police Chief but holds the distinction of being Belleville’s longest serving Chief.
