    Notes:

    John turned 14 a couple of months before the Mt Kembla Coal Mine reopened and went to work in the place his father and older brother had been killed. He moved to the Northern Illawarra coal fields and, according to his grand-daughters, was amongst the first miners to work the Helensburg Mine.
    Officially his death was recorded as 'death by drowning after a boating mishap" but the family believed he died due to dust on the lungs and the official finding was to prevent the mining company having any responsibility and thus no need for them to pay out any compensation to his widow and family.
    Two of his daughters were on the beach the day that John died. Thelma swam out with a life saving belt on to him to try and save him whilst Catherine manned the belt reel. Both were recognised for their bravery.
