Although my dad was born in England, he came to Australia when he was just 11 years old, but being agile and sporty, he quickly assimilated - it was either that or find himself on the outer. And he was the first and only member of his Tucker family to join the Australian army.<br />
<br />
Robert Sydney George (Bob) Tucker was born just before the First World War, on 30 June 1914, the third child and only son of Sydney George Tucker and Edith Annie Reed of Southampton. The following year, his father, a former territorial, joined the British Army and by 1916 was serving in France. My first post in 2011 described his dreadful war and my father's only memory of his father who died when Bob was not yet five years old.<br />
<br />
Left without a war pension after her husband's suicide, Robert's mother struggled to keep the family together, but by 1920, his sisters Jessie and Cecily were in care in London, and whilst he remained with his mother, his aunts had to come to the rescue and provide warm clothing and extra love. A complicating factor was that Edith and her children no longer had the security of rent free accommodation at the comfortable Tucker family home at 67-69 Waterloo Rd, Fremantle, a suburb of Southampton. It is unclear why, but I suspect her landlord and father-in-law's young second wife had something to do with it. She certainly made sure her elderly husband changed his will, and Edith Annie no longer had the promise of the family business.<br />
<br />
In 1923, Robert's sisters Jessie and Cecily Tucker, just 12 and 14, were encouraged by Barnardo's Homes to emigrate to Australia and work as domestic servants, and they were given permission to do so by their mother. But she missed them and the girls pleaded for their mother and young brother to migrate as well because they loved their new climate. Edith and Robert spent six months living with her sister Alice Bayford in Shepherds Bush, London preparing for the trip. He enjoyed the company of his cousin Norman Bayford who was just two years older.<br />

So by 1925, young Robert - soon to be known as Bob - was admitted to Barnardo's for a day, and given a free passage to Sydney, with his mother accompanying a group of boys bound for Western Australia. Edith found it difficult to obtain work and accommodation with young Robert in tow.<br />
<br />
So, within a few months, Bob was admitted to the Church of England Homes at Carlingford, where he thrived, mainly due to a wonderful superintendent and matron, Mr & Mrs Hill, English quakers who championed each boy and recognised their interests and talents.<br />

Although his young world was rocked by the sudden death at 19 of his sister Jessie, he loved the outdoor life and the sporting opportunities - and continued these until he went to war in 1941. At 15, having completed his intermediate certificate at Carlingford Rural School, he obtained a job at Rosen's nursery just opposite the Homes and lived in the working boys' hostel, a two storey house on the corner of Moseley Lane.<br />
<br />
Later Bob went to live with his mother at Homebush, and by 1940 had put down a deposit on a new two bedroom house in Buller Street, North Parramatta. His mother lived there and paid the rates and utilities and Bob paid the mortgage from his army pay.<br />
<br />
Twenty odd years later, this property was useful when my father changed jobs and lost accommodation with a peppercorn rent.<br />
<br />
Bob was knocked back on medical grounds (poor eyesight) when he tried to enlist in 1939, but by <br />

1941 the Army was desperate so off he went to war. He trained as a signaller and was sent to New Guinea - Lae, Milne Bay and later the Kokoda Trail in 42-43 - followed by another mission to Bougainville in 1945. Whilst there, he undertook a courageous act, crawling to fix a broken cable right near the Japanese camp. His close mate Hugh Belling told us this in 2010 - not the sort of thing my dad mentioned. His senior officers were grateful, although it was totally against the rules to undertake such dangerous activities on one's own.<br />
<br />
During the war, whilst on leave, his sister Cecily introduced Bob to her friend Freda Smith, and before long they were engaged. Bob returned to his prewar job at the citrus nursery and received a promotion to overseer with a house on site. <br />

We were fortunate to stay where we were because Bob became the farm manager, looking after 45 acres from Pennant Hills Rd to the creek at the dip of what is now Carlingford Rd, and bounded by Orchard Rd.<br />
<br />
Every Sunday in the 50s, we went to Granny's place at North Parramatta for high tea - cakes, cream buns and biscuits; later when Granny moved to a nursing home, we took her for a drive, usually to places where we children could play. Mum enjoyed an afternoon to herself.<br />
<br />
Bob had qualified as a horticulturalist in the late 40s, and followed this up by studying landscape gardening. At weekends he took on small contracts working at residences in Pennant Hills and elsewhere. He and Freda also cut and budded rose cuttings and our kitchen table was often taken over by these activities on weekday nights. In those days, most women did not work outside the home.<br />

In 1959 Bob received a small legacy from one of his English aunts, enough to purchase a new car, so with a station waggon and trailer, we travelled throughout NSW and Victoria during the school holidays. Bob loved visiting Freda's relations in country towns and his army mate Hugh on his farm outside Gunnedah but was not keen on the dry, dusty countryside that Freda loved.<br />
<br />
Big changes came in 1961 when Bob resigned from the Church of England Homes. The 45 acres on the north side of Pennant Hills Rd had been sold to Lendlease for a shopping centre (Carllingford Court) and housing in 1960. Our house, Fernhill was moved across Pennant Hills Rd to Moseley Lane, and we spent six months living in the coach house at Havilah, the home for preschoolers, situated opposite Orchard Rd.<br />

The Homes now expected him to manage the dairy as well as a smaller vegetable farm on the remaining Boys Home property.. However, dairy farming didn't interest him. So he went to work at Rumseys Seeds, later Yates, and managed the trial grounds at Baulkham Hills. No longer having a house with the job, the family moved into the Buller Street property and within six months had sold that and purchased a rambling "gerry-built" house in Linton Street, Baulkham Hills.<br />
<br />
During the seventies, Yates moved its operations to the other side of Sydney, so Bob took a job as Garden manager at the Anglican Retirement Villages (usually known as Mowll Village) at Castle Hill. Over the years, the work and number of garden staff expanded, but Bob was still expected to supply his own vehicle and trailer. Contractors undertake this work now. He finally retired in 1981 and spent his time gardening at home and pruning the neighbours' roses.<br />

By 1988, Bob had convinced a somewhat reluctant Freda to move into the village where he'd been the head gardener - Mowll Village - where they were actively involved in activities both inside the village and elsewhere. Bob's hearing was very poor and he joined SSSH - Self Help for the Hard of Hearing. In 1989 he participated in the annual city ANZAC march for the first time, and renewed friendships from his army days. He started opening up about the war and his experiences in New Guinea from this time on.<br />

For 20 years post retirement, Bob and Freda spent much time with their three grandchildren and pursued their many hobbies. Bob played his electronic organ and went to organ recitals. He sometimes contentedly stayed at home when Freda travelled, but joined her when the focus of the trip was staying with friends and relatives. He volunteered for meals on wheels with his younger daughter Kath right up till his late 80s.<br />
<br />
Freda's health became a concern in the mid 90s, and he spent three years visiting her every day at the village nursing home. Not so long after her death in 2004, he had a second stroke, leaving him unable to bear weight on his legs, but with his mind as active as ever. But having already exchanged his retirement village for low care residential care at Donington Court at ARV, he was now reliant on a wheelchair and the ageing facility had not been designed with wheelchairs in mind. So he spent the next five years at the Donald Coburn <br />

Due to many circumstances and ill-timing, Bob never returned to England, unlike his sister Cecily who visited her homeland in the 1980s.<br />

He considered himself a proud Australian, even wanting a new flag and a republic.<br />

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The charity Barnardo’s served as the backdrop to my
father Bob Tucker’s life. His sisters were sent to
Australia by Barnardo’s in 1924 and their mother and brother emigrated the following
year. In 2006, I obtained my aunt Jessie’s records from Barnardo’s After Care
Service in Barking, Essex. I eventually
received records for my aunt for the period 1922-1927, together with a phone
call asking whether my 92 year old father was aware of his sister’s tragic
death. Using this material, public
records of the incident and genealogical records, I have been able to
reconstruct much of Jessie Agnes Tucker’s life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Homes, a well-known English charity set up a branch in Sydney in 1921,
specifically to support the immigration of the sons of British Servicemen who
had died in World War 1 and place them in farm work. The first batch of Barnardos Boys arrived in
September 1921, and the first girls in 1923.

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Jessie Agnes Tucker was the oldest child of Sydney
George Tucker (1882-1919) and his wife Edith Annie Reed (1884-1973). Both came from well-established upwardly
mobile families of small tradesmen in Southampton. Their life was comfortable prior to World War
1. Siblings Cecily Mary and Robert
Sydney George Tucker were born in 1910 and 1914. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Sydney worked for his father for low wages and free housing. However, three
events changed their fortunes: Jessie’s maternal grandfather died suddenly in
1915, and the bank foreclosed on his three bakeries. His wife and three daughters spent the next
10 years trading out of debt with their remaining tearooms. Secondly, Jessie’s paternal grandfather, a
widower, married a 22 year old woman who forced him to change his will.
Finally, her father was severely injured and shell-shocked in France and took
his own life in hospital in 1919<a href="file:///C:/Users/Marg%20Moxon/Documents/Pharos/Assignment%202%20Poor%20Law%20due%2017th%20Feb.doc#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title=""><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><!--[if !supportFootnotes]--><span class="MsoFootnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;">[2]</span></span><!--[endif]--></span></a>.

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">My 3rd great grandfather, yet another George, is the ancestor for whom I feel sorriest. The poor man was born in the wrong county, at the wrong time, and at the wrong end of his family.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">George Tucker, born on 27th November 1802 and baptised at Landford on 12th December. He was the ninth child and youngest son of William Tucker and Mary Rice, who married on 23rd April, 1788 in St Laurence Church, Downton. He had two brothers, William (1788-1861) and John (1797- ) and eight sisters, at least five of whom lived to adulthood. At least one sibling died in infancy. All the children were born in Hamptworth, which was a small rural settlement within walking distance of both Downton and Landford.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">George's siblings married into local families - Pratt, Moody, Eldridge, Cooper and Harrison families. Although they were all baptised in Landford, they preferred to marry in Downton. This was probably due to the dilapidated state of the Landford church, which was rebuilt in 1858.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">A church school was not opened until 1848, although a dame school had been operating since about 1818. So George and his siblings did not have the opportunity for schooling. (Note: Older brother William must have had some opportunity for education since he was a churchwarden at St Andrews, Landford later in life.) By 1851, some of the children in Hamptworth were described as scholars, but most children over 10 were working with their fathers. Lace making was a common home industry for the women and girls during this time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">On 31st August 1825, George married Hannah Isaac from Rockbourne in Hampshire. She was the daughter of George Isaac and Sarah Biddlecombe. Rockbourne is located on the western side of the New Forest, within walking distance of Downton. I wonder if George and Hannah met each other at the annual Market Fair? (Farmers and other employers often engaged labourers and domestic servants at the annual fair in those days.)</span><br />

<br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /><span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">contains one of many accounts of the poverty and hunger being felt in Wiltshire during the late 1820s, 30s and later, the very time that my 3rd great grandfather was establishing a family. In the late 20s, the crops failed and the Enclosure acts resulted in many rural workers losing the right to grow their own produce and graze their animals on common land. Additionally, with larger land holdings, the landowners engaged fewer permanent workers, and men such as George Tucker who in earlier times could rely on their yeoman and copyhold farming relatives for work were forced to take on casual employment. This meant that for long periods during the winter months they were unable to find work. And with mechanisation of farming methods, wages were reduced - Wiltshire wages were much lower than in the north. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">From the early 30s to the 50s, there were mass migrations of Wiltshire labourers and their families, not only to the cities but also to Canada and Australia.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">But for whatever reason, this George stayed put. The 1841, 1851, 1861 and 1871 census showed him remaining in Hamptworth, even though his sons George (b 1832) and William (b 1834) had moved to Southampton and London long before. In the 1851 census, a daughter Mary Tuc0, a scholar is listed. It took me a long time to find her. However, I know now that she was born in 1839, married George Bungey (1837-1908) and had many children. She died in Surrey in 1914.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I visited Hamptworth in 2008 and found it a rural area with scattered cottages. The most obvious building is the Cuckoo Inn, where we had lunch. I was invited to pull a beer with the landlord, after I explained that my great great great grandfather probably sat in the same room. The pub is over 200 years old.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">George's wife Hannah died of "decay of iodine" on 1st May 1872 in Downton. Her husband George was described on her death certificate as a (general) labourer, suggesting that he may have retired from farmwork.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">By 1881, George Tucker was a resident of the Alderbury Union Workhouse at Britford, just outside Salisbury. He died on 14th February 1886, aged 83 of senile decay. He was described as a domestic gardener - everyone who was able had to work, probably engaged very cheaply by local residents.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">In 1869, an official reported on the Workhouse:</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">

<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">And so ends my Tucker links with Wiltshire. From the 1880s, none of my close ancestors lived in Hamptworth, Landford or Downton - they were engulfed by the industrial revolution and had moved to Southampton and London.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">The only exception was George's daughter Ann (1829-1882), who married George Dibden of Nomansland, near Hamptworth. It is understood Dibdens still live around that area.</span><br />

Great-great grandfather, George Tucker (1832-1914) brings alive a period of English history where great changes took place. By the time he was ready for work, the economic life of the nation was centred around great advances in transport and manufacturing rather than agriculture.<br />

George Tucker, grandfather of Sydney George (1883-1919) and Albert Arthur William Tucker (1885-1964) was born in Hamptworth, Downton, Wiltshire in 1832, in a period of great turmoil. His parents were George Tucker (1802-1886) and Hannah Isaac (1800-1872).<br />
<br />
Downton, eight miles south of the cathedral city of Salisbury and on the northern border of the New Forest, is a very pretty place – still just a small market town - which I visited in May 2008, together with my new found cousin Linda, the grand-daughter of “Bert” Tucker.<br />
<br />
However in 1832 when George was born, Downton was a place of misery for many of its inhabitants, especially for the agricultural labourers such as George Tucker senior (b 1802) and his family, wife Mary and sons and daughter Ann, George and William.<br />

In the 1830’s Wiltshire was in the grip of a severe depression, caused mostly by the enclosure of common land – causing loss of farming rights of villagers; poor harvests between 1828 and 1830; and the introduction of farm machinery, which took away the jobs of many farm labourers.<br />

Riots spread to Downton, with machinery attacked. These riots were just some of the “Swing Riots”, which commenced in Kent and spread across to Wiltshire and further west. They were widespread in Wiltshire. The government response was harsh, and many of the rioters were sentenced to transportation to Australia, although later pardoned. Although some of those transported to Australia came from Downton, the Tucker family was not amongst them, nor amongst those convicted.<br />
<br />
But living conditions must have been hard for the Tuckers. According to George junior’s marriage certificate, his father was a woodsman. Wages for Wiltshire farm labourers were 8/- per week, much lower than elsewhere in the country.<br />
<br />
Many families were on parish relief at the time, and in 1835 a small group of families left for Canada. They wrote with enthusiasm to their families and neighbours back in Downton.<br />
The parish vestry members were concerned about the high levels of relief being paid by the Downton parish to families. At this time, about 50-100 family men were permanently out of work. They saw emigration as a solution to their problems.<br />
<br />
The following notice was published:<br />
<b>Downton February 28th 1836</b><br />
Notice is hereby given, that all Fathers of Families, and all single persons, who wish to emigrate to Canada, are to attend a meeting of the vestry, tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, at the vestry room ,at the church, for the purpose of securing their passage and other necessary arrangements<br />
By order of the Select Vestry.<br />
<br />
About 220 people from Downton took up the parish offer to go to Canada. This represented 1 in 10 of the population.<br />
<br />
However, again the Tucker family was not represented amongst the emigrants.<br />

In 1841 , the Tucker family was split into two households. George Tucker senior and his widowed mother Mary (nee Rice, a pauper), his sons George (9) and William (6) and niece Caroline (16) were living at Hamptworth, a hamlet between Downton and Landford where George senior had been baptized.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, his wife Hannah Tucker (nee Isaac) was living at Landford Lodge with her daughters Ann (11) and Mary (1). Daughter Mary (born in 1840) disappears without trace in later census records.<br />
<br />
The household was back living together in 1851. George junior was listed in the 1851 census as an agricultural labourer, living with his parents and sister Ann, who married the following year. However, work cannot have been plentiful because when he married in Southampton in 1854, he was living at 29 Union Street, Southampton and described himself as a labourer.<br />
<br />
In 1852, George’s sister Ann Tucker (b 1829) married George Dibden at Downton, and by 1881 was living at Nomansland, just to the south of Landford. She had five children. There are still Dibdens in the area.<br />
<br />
Brother William became a servant with a distant relative at West Wellow, and by 1857 had moved to London to become a fireman. He died in West Ham, Essex in 1881, having fathered two daughters to his wife Emma (nee Arden, formally Garbett) - Alice (1867) and Ellen Elizabeth (1869).<br />
<br />
George married Sophia Jefferis, a 20 year old from Fordingbridge, Hampshire in the Southampton registry office on 6th June, 1854. She too was living in Southampton at 85 James Street. She gave no occupation. Two of her siblings were her witnesses.<br />

In 1858, Sophia gave birth to George William, the first of three children and the only boy. He was our great-grandfather. Kate Louisa followed in 1862 and Ellen Jane in 1869. Ellen was known as Nellie as an adult.<br />
<br />
By 1861, the family was living at 9 The Back of the Walls, and George was a “shopman”. He then became a coal porter, an occupation he gave in every census from 1871 to 1901. On his death certificate he was described as a “retired stevedore” so it is likely he worked as a coal porter on the docks.<br />
<br />
Needless to say, George was a man who personified the industrial revolution, seeing great changes in both his lifestyle and his occupation over the second half of the eighteenth century.<br />

He appears to have been a very stable man, living in the same house at 9 Bell Street, Southampton until his death in 1914. Unadventurous maybe? His wife Sophia lived there until her death in 1922. My father vaguely remembers visiting his great-grandmother there, probably not long before she died.<br />

Sophia presented him with a bible in 1879, for his 47th birthday. She describes herself as his affectionate wife. So in all probability, they had a good marriage. The birthdates of their children were also listed.<br />
<br />
They had plenty of sadness though. Their elder daughter Kate Louisa died at age 17, and Sophia lived to see her younger daughter Nellie die before her in 1918. Their daughter-in-law Agnes Mary Tucker also died before them in 1912.<br />
<br />
Her son-in-law Donald McInnes (Nellie’s widower) was present at her death. Maybe he lived with the old lady. My father Bob remembers him, prior to Bob’s departure for Australia in 1925. He left Edith Annie Tucker (Bob’s mother) his few possessions. Certainly, Nellie (Ellen Jane) was living with her parents in 1901, probably whilst Don, a seaman was away. She was also living there in 1911 , with her employment listed as a fruiter’s assistant.<br />
<br />
George Tucker died at home on 6th November, 1914 of chronic bronchitis. His daughter Nellie McInnes was present at his death.<br />
<br />
During his lifetime he would have seen the movement of the population from village to industrial towns, the growth of the railways and the sea ports, the devastation from the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, and the beginning of the Great War. He lived through the reign of three monarchs – Victoria, Edward VII and George V. Even though he was a general labourer (as described on his wife’s death certificate in 1922) and probably lived very simply in poor housing, his living standards would have increased significantly since his childhood in Hamptworth, Wiltshire.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">In common with most towns in the early 19th century Southampton was dreadfully unsanitary. The improvement commissioners only paved and cleaned the main streets and the back streets were very dirty. Out of 230 streets in the 1840's 145 were without sewers. In one case 77 people shared one toilet. Not surprisingly in 1849 there was a cholera epidemic in Southampton, which killed 240 people.</span> </blockquote>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Life in Victorian Southampton gradually improved. After 1850 the town council took over the duties of the improvement commissioners. From then on all streets were cleaned and sewers were enlarged and improved. Nevertheless there was another epidemic of cholera in Southampton in 1865, which killed 151 people. At first poor people obtained their water from conduits, wells or pumps but in 1888 a new water works opened at Otterbourne. By that time most people had piped water.

Ten years later in 1901 he had acquired two properties at 67-69 Waterloo Rd, Freemantle, a suburb of Southampton, whilst his sons Sydney George (aged 18) and Albert Arthur William (aged 16) lived above the shop in 10 Canal Walk. Sydney was his father’s assistant whilst Albert (Bert) was still at school. He sent both boys to the Taunton’s School in Southampton, where they excelled in sports – football and cricket.</span><br />

Sydney George Tucker was born in on 30<sup>th</sup> May,1882 at <st1:street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">15 Manchester Street</st1:address></st1:street>, in the civil and ecclesiastical parish of All Saints, Southampton, Hampshire <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">UK</st1:country-region></st1:place>. His father (George William Tucker, 1858-1924) was originally a pawnbroker (so described in 1881) and then a music shop owner (by 1891). His mother (Agnes Mary Hardy, b 1858) had been a teacher when she married George in 1881.<o:p></o:p></div>

Spooner’s “A history of <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Taunton</st1:place></st1:city>’s School (1967) referred to Fred Carmichael and the two Tuckers – “They played in any position between 1899 and 1901 – SG even played as goalkeeper when needed.” (p 98). Page 101 refers to AAW (Bert)’s fame in <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Taunton</st1:place></st1:city> cricketing history – he was the first boy to score a century (102 not out) in a school match.

The School Journal of April 1963 records the death of AAW on 26<sup>th</sup> April, 1963, aged 78, and refers to the early death of SG in 1919. <o:p></o:p></div>

It is a bit of a mystery why they married in Bovey Tracey - maybe because Edith's uncle William Reed lived nearby, and we know Syd wrote to "Ede" at an address nearby.
