I think this is the Brunner brass band. The man in the front row with the good head of hair is my Father who played the cornet in the band for quite a good few years. If you Grandfather was nick named Topper Coates my Father knew him and Lizzie very well. At that time everyone knew everyone in Brunnerton on the Coast. Sadly they have all passed on now.

Yes Debbie. I have been talking to your older sister Lynda a few times. You Nana was my father’s Aunty and was always down at our house in Dobson especially after you Grandfather passed away.

Madge Glen & her two sons Russell & Gerald had the Taylorville store for many years after her husband was killed: I think in Wallsend Rock fall. Madge was an ‘Aunty’ to me & my mother’s best friend. Also Topper and Liz Coates & Family were great Taylorville people as well as Jack Morgan’s.

Dad’s 2 cousins played the pipes in the Wellington Police Band. They came down to visit a few years and went round Dobson first footing on Hogmanay (New Years eve). Always went up to visit old Granny McCluskie who lived up past the Dobson school. Both of them have passed on now too.

Daft question, but is the woman called Mame Watson? She was involved in almost everything musical in Brunner. She looks like Mame, but I knew her only when she was a very old woman.
