When her son Edwin (Ted) Weeks died in 1960 an orbituary notice in the Yass Courier said that Charlotte had remarried a Charles MOORBY (same pronounciation). The NSW Marriage records reveal she marrried an Alfred MAWBY at Boorowa in 1921. It would seem that Albert and Charlotte had split up before Albert died in 1920 because Charlotte had a son Joseph, born to Alfred Mawby at Binalong in 1919. It is worth noting that Joseph Mawby was baptisted at St.Thomas's Binalong (1919) where his parents are recorded as Alfred and Charlotte Edith Christina Mawby where as Charlotte's name would still have been Weeks unless they were divorsed which is unlikely seeing she did not marry Mawby until one year after Albert died and two years after Joseph was born.John William Weeks.

111. Vern Wilfred Pollard was born on 11 Jan 1914 in Burrowa, NSW and died on 4 Apr 2005 in Endeavour Nursing Home, Springwood, NSW, at age 91.
General Notes: Dad's Eulogy
On the 11th January 1914, 8 months before World War I was declared and whilst his brothers, Cyril and Roley, chased the chooks around the house, Vern Wilfred Pollard was born. Vern was the last child to be born to Alfred and Annie Pollard.
Alfred's great grandfather, William Pollard arrived in Australia as a farm labourer aboard the "Duchess of Northumberland" in 1838 and purchased land in the Jerrawa district. Annie's great grandfather, James Holgate had arrived in Sydney aboard the convict ship "England II" in 1835 and, after obtaining his ticket of leave, had also settled in the same area.
Life in the hamlet of Rye Park at the time Dad was born was not enormously different from that experienced by his ancestors.
The wealthy would have better homes, the poor, who included the Pollard family, had the benefits of corrugated iron and maybe a wood stove but still slab timber walls. Dad recently told us that for years his Mum had a dirt floor in her house.
What a change technology had on Dad's life; telephone, electricity, refrigeration, the motorcar, television, medical breakthroughs, space travel, computers, care for the environment, the list is endless. Will one lifetime ever again see such change?
For Dad life was often a struggle. He lost his brother Miles, who died four days before his fourth birthday, at the age of two years two months. Dad sometimes spoke about how he missed losing his brother but as he was so young, his reflections would have been from a great need for companionship. Dad's sister Ivy was twelve years older and would have been working. His brothers, Roley and Cyril, were five and six years older.
Dad attended Rye Park School until he was fourteen, as it was compulsory. He endured the cruel schoolmaster, Bob Buckridge. He remained in primary school for the last couple of years, as he would have needed to go to Boorowa for High School. After school each afternoon he tended his veggie garden on Pudman Creek. He told the story of searching for melons to supplement the family food supply.
One evening he discovered an enormous jam melon miles from home. On his pushbike, with one hand on the handlebars and the other clutching a sugar bag that held the melon that rolled around his back, he set off for home. After a number of spills he proudly arrived home with his treasure.
He worked with his father, who had a number of small blocks of land in the district at places like Whoop Whoop, where they would stay overnight. We recently found Dad's initials, which he carved when he was twelve, still carved in a post near the fireplace. He talked about stick dodging, which consisted of collecting and stacking sticks on land that was being cleared.
Upon leaving school he worked as a Shearer and was one of the best at using hand blades. At other times he laboured in the hills around Rye Park ring-barking and felling trees. This was heavy manual work and was at the time of the Great Depression.
At the age of twenty-two, Dad had a house built by a local builder, Walter Irvine. It cost 675 pounds. He married a local girl but the marriage did not work out. Dad was often away from home shearing and doing other work and his wife became unfaithful.
It was in the days before the Family Law Court when divorces were very messy and very expensive. Dad lost the case and was ordered to pay enormous costs. It took him many years to repay the money he borrowed. Whilst we were cleaning up at "Rockfield", we found the records of these loans. Dad felt great shame in relation to his divorce and it was only relatively recently that he was able to share the subject with his children.
To allow him to pay off his legal bills Dad headed for Sydney where his cousin Greta helped him find a job at Good Year Tyre and Rubber Company. The work was hot, dirty and heavy and, with the outbreak of World War II, many extra hours were required to be worked as the demand for tyres escalated. Dad was lonely and depressed. He lived in cheap, poor quality accommodation so as to allow him as much spare money as possible.
He stayed at a number of boarding houses, one of which was run by Mrs Eccleston at 14 Jersey Road, Strathfield. One Saturday night Dad was wandered up Burwood Road on his way back from a trip to Cabarita when he heard music and laughter. He thought he had nothing to lose so he ventured into the dance studio.
It was Fuller's dance studio. There he met Mum. Dad often reflected on this joyous event.
The friendship of Vern and Gladys Bonsor blossomed and on Saturday, 29 April 1944, at Burwood Methodist Church, they were married. They built a house at 38 Regents Street, Regents Park. This was a challenge due to the impact of the war on the supply of building materials. On 7 November 1945 Neville arrived, followed by myself and Jeanette in 1949 and 1951.
After working 15 years at Good Years Dad found that his health could no longer cope with the conditions and shift work so on Jeanette's birthday, July 20, 1956, the Pollard family packed their belongings, including the chooks, and moved to "Rockfield", Maimuru.
I can still hear the sound of the rooster crowing whilst we filled the loaded old Bedford with petrol at the Regents Park Service station. The old Bedford was a converted Bushells Tea van with single wheels on the back, not ideal for the 1956 wet weather on "Rockfield" nor was it ideal for a family of five but it was adequate. At the time, being the one who sat on the handbrake, I may not have agreed.
Dad's vision was that "Rockfield" would be a step to him becoming a wheat and sheep farmer but that was not to be and for close to half a century, along with droughts, frosts and hailstorms, Dad was an orchardist that ventured into other farming projects including fat lambs, pigs, Friesian cows, turkeys and various crops. He was proud of what he produced and would often be heard to say to Mum that he had the best prunes at the dryer or that he topped the price at the sale yards with his fat lambs or pigs.
Dad prided himself on being a hard worker, real work that was, the stuff that generates sweat. Sitting in an office was not work to Dad. An early start and a late finish was the order of the day, although a "camp" after lunch was acceptable.
When we were kids and we were helping on the farm we were always very quiet whilst Dad was having a rest. We would hope he would go into a deep sleep and thus allow us more time to play.
When Dad built something, it had to be strong. He would select the largest corner fence post available and put it in the ground at least a foot deeper than necessary. As a provider for the family Dad worked long hours and never took a holiday. Even though times were often tough, with Mum's help, we always were well feed and clothed. Whilst he did not receive an ideal formal education he ensured that we children all completed High School and went onto further education.
Dad's real love was horses. There was Sammy the giant draught horse that was on the farm when he arrived and after he died Dobbin replaced him. Sammy used to pull the orchard spray cart for Dad who manually sprayed the trees. Both Sammy and Dobbin also pulled the spring cart that was a real assistance in pruning the fruit trees. Dad, along with the horse and cart, worked with some others on the settlement doing contract pruning. There was Bede and Narna. Dad enjoyed working with them as it allowed him to catch up on the local settlement gossip.
He also had thoroughbred horses; one or two of which raced but his main enjoyment was showing them in the local shows, especially when it meant winning against the "well heeled" big names. He won many champion ribbons.
Dad was a bit of a show-off and loved to perform. He would have loved to be on stage but he opted for being Santa Claus at the Maimuru Christmas party where he enjoyed kissing the young and not so young women. He served the community in this way for many years, as no one could be Santa like Vernie. He always added something extra to the night. Dad "hit the big time" when he was invited to be Santa at Grace Brothers in Young. He even attended Santa Claus school in Sydney.
He loved finding ways of causing a laugh by doing crazy things like having his feet out of the window of the truck whilst waiting to pick Jeanette up from the bus. He loved quoting Banjo Paterson's "The old man walked to the slip rails and he peered up the darkening track". Even saying grace had a touch of performance.
Like many better-known performers Dad struggled with depression. Whilst never reaching a clinical level it was a weight that he carried right through his life. Maybe this was somehow connected to the fact that he thought he had to prove himself. Before he broke his hip, when one of the Aged Care team arrived to visit him on the farm (or as he would say "to inspect him"), he was out mowing the lawn, obviously to show them that he was still fully fit. What gave it away was the fact that Social Worker noticed and commented on the fact that he still had his slippers on!
When I asked him what behaviour he valued most he said, "Kindness." His kindness extended to those disadvantaged and to most animals. He had a very soft spot for his mother and was very kind to her. When he had annual holidays whilst at Good Years he always would spend the time working for her.
When we had aboriginal fruit pickers come and stay he always treated them with dignity and respect. This frequently worked in his favour because Poppa Williams always made sure Vern had enough pickers.
Dad had a long Christian commitment. Maybe this commenced as a result of Grandmother Holgate, who Dad recently fondly spoke of, telling him about God. He loyally supported the local church both financially and through attendance. Dad's expectations of a church were not always met and he was prone to vary denominational labels. Unfortunately this did sometimes cause hurt to those who sought to reach out to him.
Dad valued a practical faith and whilst he briefly followed the family tradition as a lay preacher, he was much more at home with welcoming on the door or hospital visitation. He was not one for "long winded" sermons. When Young Baptist Church was opened, he donated a clock.
One of his most valued Christian experiences was when he arranged for Arthur Stace, the 'Eternity' writer to visit Regents Park Baptist men's group. I'm sure Dad valued Arthur's story.
Dad was a deacon and Secretary of Regents Park Baptist church and a deacon and treasurer at Young Baptist Church and toward the end of his life was involved with and valued greatly the support of the Salvation Army.
Dad for a number of years tireless cared for Mum. This task was not easy, as it required enormous patience to cope with Mum's dementia. The assistance of the staff from "Home Care" was invaluable during this period.
Just before Christmas 2002, Dad had a fall that broke his hip. This was the event that would move him and Mum off the farm. After a short stay in "Mercy Care" they moved to Endeavour Nursing Home at Springwood. This was a move that Dad had dreaded. It was like putting a free flying bird in a cage. Through miraculous circumstances Dad was able to room with Mum until she passed away in May last year.
During his stay in Endeavour, Dad celebrated his 90th Birthday and appreciated greatly being joined by his Rockfield neighbours, Bruce and Carmel and a number of his nieces and nephews. In April last year, Dad and Mum celebrated their Diamond Wedding anniversary. Dad was impressed with the many greetings they received, including the Queen, Governor General, Prime Minister and Premier.
Shortly after this celebration, on 21st May, Dad said goodbye to his partner of over 60 years. Dad travelled to Young to bury her, a major undertaking for someone in his state of health.
Since Mum's passing Dad appeared to be more relaxed. Maybe he felt no longer responsible for her and the challenge that provided.
During this time a local woman Joan Murray, along with Bonnie, her Golden Retriever, daily visited him and other residents at the Nursing Home. Joan was even there on Christmas day. Her happy friendly spirit was significant and was an answer to Mum's prayer that Dad would have a friend when she was gone. One time we suggested to Dad that we could go out for coffee but Dad didn't want to miss Joan's visit.
He appreciated the staff at Endeavour. They would comment that he was a pleasure to look after and never complained.
Dad gradually became more frail and on Monday 4th April, this chapter of his life came to a close.
Within a year we have said farewell to both Mum and Dad. Whilst we deeply miss them we know they have gone to a much better place and that we will see them again.
They did not give us fame or fortune; they did however give us gifts of real value. They gave us their sincere love and the opportunity to know Jesus. We therefore consider that we have been truly blest.

Vern married Gladys May Bonsor.
General Notes: Mum's Eulogy
My mother, Gladys May Bonsor was born on 9 October 1915 in Croydon, a Sydney suburb. She was the elder daughter of Isaac and Ada Bonsor. A brother, William had died in 1913; a week after Ada had immigrated to Australia from Nottingham in England. Her husband, Isaac, a tailor, had come to Australia 6 months earlier and had found work at David Jones. After William's death, Ada was extremely lonely, and wanted desperately to return to England, but there was never any money for the fare. However, in early 1915 when she found that she was pregnant again, she became more contented and my mother was born a little Australian.
Grace, her sister, was born two years later, and John was born in 1926, when Mum was nearly 11.
When she was 5 the family moved from Croydon to Ashfield, and she started school at Ashfield Primary. She was a good student, and after Primary School, went on to Ashfield Domestic Science School. She obtained excellent results at the end of Year 8. Her wish was to complete her studies to Year 9, and perhaps gain a scholarship for further study. However, a friend of the family urged her parents to enroll her in Burwood Business College instead, and she was told she was leaving school. After 3 months at the College, her parents could not afford to pay the fees, and she had to leave. The Depression was on, but she eventually found work at Addis, making toothbrushes. She then moved into the office and, over time, became the Office Manager. She enjoyed this very much, and worked there until she was married.
Her family was Methodist, and she attended churches in Malvern Hill, Burwood and Enfield during her growing years. She was very involved in the activities of the church. A highlight for her was her attendance at the Christian Endeavour Convention in Melbourne in 1938. This was the only time that Mum journeyed out of NSW or the ACT in her entire life. Her yearning to travel was never fulfilled. When we cleaned out the house after Mum & Dad went into the Nursing Home, we found a large photograph album full of postcards. She had received these from others who had been able to make the journeys that she had only dreamed of.
During the War, Mum and Grace both became members of the Volunteer Aide Detachment (VADs). They attended Crown St Hospital to assist in caring for patients, as part of the war effort.
She and Grace loved ballroom dancing, and they attended lessons regularly. It was at Fuller's Dance Studio at Burwood that she met Dad. He had travelled to Sydney from Rye Park, near Boorowa, in search of work. He had found labouring work at the GoodYear Tyre & Rubber Company. However, he was finding life pretty tough and he was very lonely. One night he was walking along the street in front of Fullers. He heard music and decided to investigate. He was invited in to the hall. Mum could see the loneliness in his face, and she befriended him.
He too was Methodist, and their friendship developed. They were married in Burwood Methodist Church on 29 April 1944.
After their marriage, they lived with Mum's parents, who by now lived at Haberfield.
They purchased land at 38 Regents St, Regents Park. As the War was on, building materials were scarce and progress on the house was slow. They finally moved into their home when Neville was nearly 3 years old. The fibro house was built on a long block which went back towards the railway line on the top of a cutting, and they had chickens at the back.
Dad continued at GoodYears, and Geoff was born in 1949. Around this time they started to attend the Baptist Church in Regents Park. Dad had heard the singing as he walked down the street to catch the train to work. One Sunday morning he decided to attend. The fellow on the door, Mr Greenfield, gave him such a hearty welcome, that he decided to stay. Mum joined him soon afterwards. They were both baptised at the church, by Rev. Matt Smith.
Neville loved the steam trains going through the cutting at the back of the house. They would blow their whistle as they went through. He would ask Mum what train it was. She memorised the timetable, so she could tell him where the train was going. This was indicative of Mum's encouragement and interest in each child's endeavours. Her dream was to purchase a pedal car for Neville, but finances were never available.
I was born in 1951. Life settled down, and Mum enjoyed her new home. She also learnt how to drive. However, Dad's shiftwork at GoodYears was difficult for him.
The continual hard labouring work in the intense heat was playing havoc with his health, and he did not sleep well during the day.
An opportunity then came for Dad to move back onto the land. Mum did not want to move from the comforts of her home, complete with a fabulous gas stove, but she knew that Dad could not continue at GoodYears. She reluctantly agreed to leave her family and friends to start an entirely new life in the country.
It was with a deep heaviness of heart that she left Regents Park for the fruit orchard at Maimuru in July 1956. Dad had sold our 1934 Ford V8, and purchased a 2 ton Bedford Truck. This was laden with all manner of things, complete with chooks on the top. The roosters crowed in Goulburn's main street as we journeyed south-west. It was very wet, and the furniture truck got bogged at the bottom of the hill, before the ascent to the house at 'Rockfield'. Finally, on my 5th birthday, the furniture was unloaded. Mum's lovely new home at Regents Park was now replaced by an old farm house in need of repair, with rattling louvres, a fuel stove, and an outside pan toilet - and she arrived in mid-winter.
But from that point on, Mum strove to become a farmer's wife, like her sisters-in-law. She made butter and jam, she preserved fruit, and learnt how to milk a cow. She mastered the fuel stove, she stooked hay and helped with the sheep. She poddied pet lambs, and was very good at coaxing these little creatures to stay alive. She picked prunes, and picked and packed stone fruit. She had to learn to drive the old Bedford Truck which had a 'crash' gearbox - and this was no mean feat for someone who wasn't very tall. Although she learnt to do all these things, she never thought she had really 'made it'. However, during her last years on the farm she sometimes used to dwell on the fact that she had learnt to do all the farmyard tasks. She had become less critical of herself and it was only then that she started to be satisfied that she had actually achieved her goal of becoming a farmer's wife.
One thing that she enjoyed doing was the farm bookwork. Her skills as Office Manager came to the fore, and she was fastidious in recording every cent that was spent. Money was very scarce on many occasions and Mum never wasted it. As we were cleaning out the house we found seemingly hundreds of little notebooks and bits of paper with lists of figures on them. It became a bit of a joke as the hours of sifting through papers went on.
She also enjoyed doing the crossword puzzles in the Women's Weekly. This was an outlet for her, and her dictionary became very battered indeed. When the Women's Weekly started to come out monthly she stopped buying it as she did not believe this change was justified - sometimes Mum could be very stubborn!
She worked hard in the garden. She attacked the nettles and marshmallow grass with a passion until these were all but eradicated. She loved roses, tulips and dahlias, but her special flowers were her gladiolas. She would lovingly cut each spike as the first flowers appeared. She would then pluck each flower off as it died, and cut back the stem. She would not throw the stem away until the very last flower was dead. Every single flower was precious to her.
She was a great encourager to us children, and we knew that we were loved. She treated each of us as individuals. She was the catalyst behind each of us completing our secondary education, and going on to complete tertiary studies (something that she had been unable to do). By the time Geoff & I were in Senior High School we had a second vehicle which made life more flexible. She then shopped on Friday afternoons so that we could go down the street with our friends after school - or Geoff could hoon around the back roads with 'Hinton'. At one time she shopped on Thursdays so Geoff could pursue an interest in electronics at the Young Police Boys Club on that afternoon. She would stay up until midnight talking to Neville, when he came home from Teacher's College. She always welcomed our friends, and she was a very good cook. She meticulously measured every ingredient, and her cakes were never a flop. She knitted perfectly, and always had something 'on her pins'.
Mum and Dad attended the Young Baptist Fellowship, which met on Sunday afternoons, when they moved to Maimuru. They were also committed to the twice-monthly Service at the Maimuru Methodist Church. They were Foundation Members when the Young Baptist Church was formed in 1965. Mum taught Sunday School for many years, and helped Dad during his years as Church Treasurer.
Around the time that we children left home, Mum became involved in the activities of 'Christian Women Communicating International'. She attended 'Know Your Bible' studies, and the South-West Christian Women's Convention held in Young each year. She was treasurer for this event for the maximum 6 years possible.
During his later years, Dad decided that he would like to attend the Salvation Army here, and Mum came with him, being forever faithful to his wishes. As the years rolled on, she could no longer concentrate on doing the 'Know Your Bible' studies. In her early 80's she began to lose her memory and she became more dependent on Dad who took her shopping, and helped her with the household chores.
In July 2000 she was diagnosed with cancer in her jaw, and underwent major surgery to remove part of the bone. By this time, her memory was really starting to fail, and the doctors said that she would need Nursing Home Care after the surgery. But Mum proved them wrong, returning home just a few weeks later. She was only able to do this because Dad cared for her constantly and Home Care attended three times a week.
Over the next couple of years Mum and Dad both became frailer and the thread holding them together on the farm got thinner and thinner. Despite many discussions about the future, Dad would not consider leaving the farm. The family visited as regularly as possible to give support.
On 16 December 2002, that tiny thread broke when Dad fell and broke his hip. The next difficult phase began for all of us.
Mum & Dad could not return home and had to go to Nursing Home accommodation. The last time they visited the farm was 8 February 2003. In contrast to a very wet 1956, a severe drought was in full swing.
Mum had had a great deal of difficulty in adjusting to farm life as she had been a real city girl. However, as she reached her 80's she became a real admirer of her surroundings and the familiarity of the farm. She was devastated when she & Dad were unable to continue there.
For a number of years the family had had a certain dread about what would happen about the farm when this time came as none of us lived close by. We put it to the back of our minds as it was all in the 'too hard basket'. But when the time came, God in His goodness provided an angel in the form of Bruce Edgerton, a fantastic neighbour. With his amazing help we finally shut the gate of the farm on my 52nd birthday, 47 years to the day since we arrived.
Mum gradually became more confused over the coming months and she became physically frailer. The last time we were able to take her out of the Nursing Home was to Neville & Sylvia's 3 weeks ago when we gathered to celebrate Mum & Dad's Diamond Wedding Anniversary. She had been unwell the week before, and she was not really connected to the occasion or the message from the Queen. Her health then deteriorated rapidly and she slipped into eternity early last Friday morning.
Mum had made a commitment to Jesus Christ when she was a child. She kept this faith throughout her life, and she served Him faithfully in her small corner of the world. She rejoiced that her three children had become Christians and had all married Christians. She had a real heart for prayer, praying for many missionaries, and those close to her. She prayed for her children and grandchildren faithfully. She was never judgemental, and always had a listening ear. One of the things I found most frustrating when she lost her memory was the fact that we could no longer have the rousing discussions we used to have, and she no longer understood or remembered. Mum had a fairly low self-esteem in many ways, but she always prided herself in her mental ability - this ability had now been taken away. But she did not fear death, knowing that she would meet her Saviour, and be with Him forever.
Am I sad that she has passed away? My real mother passed away long ago. The grieving process has been long and difficult. As her dementia took hold the intelligent, caring mother I once knew gradually became disorientated and distant. With her death, this long period of grieving is now mixed with the feeling of relief and joy as she is with her Lord forever.
Mum can now say with the apostle Paul:
'The time has come for my departure. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness' (2 Tim 4:6-8)
As I have spent the last couple of days reflecting on her life, I have come to the conclusion that Mum gave me everything that her resources would allow. For that I am grateful, and so very very privileged.
