Unfortunately, Violet passed away in 1924 leaving Albert to look after the children. At first, they lived in Port Parham, but at some point moved further south to St Kilda, where Albert took over the local shop near the beach.
Audrey Tiller (nee Tremaine), Alberts niece, went to stay with the small family for a number of months to help out with chores. In her letters (held by her Grandson, Allen Tiller), Audrey tells of sewing clothing for the children as well as cooking for them.
Audrey was an avid photographer, and because of her photographic inclinations, we have the photos on this page to share with you.
