Death of a father | Charles Rush 13 December 1931 (aged 51 years) LATEST LOCAL NEWS DEATH OF MR C. RUSH THE death occurred at his home at Yamble yesterday, of Mr C. Rush, one of the fine old pioneers of the district, at the advanced age of 83 years. A further reference will appear in Thursday's "Guardian." Mudgee Guardian, Monday 14 December 1931, p. 4. Charles Rush Obituary PIONEER PASSES LATE MR. CHARLES RUSH As briefly reported in Monday's "Guardian," Mr. Charles Rush died at his Two Mile Flat home on Sunday last at the great age of 83 years. Deceased was born in England, and came to Australia at an early age. The blood of the pioneer was in him, and over half a century ago he started home-making at Two Mile Flat, where he cleared and ploughed and made marked progress. It was hard work, but settlers of the Charles Rush type heeded little, the discomforts which attended the struggle to carve out a way for themselves in those strenuous days. He, with his worthy wife, overcame the many difficulties presented, and their home became one of the most comfortable in the district. Sturdy, self-reliant, and courageous, the subject of this notice naturally took a leading part in the affairs of his immediate district, and his advice was sought (and freely given) to all those who desired a helping hand. He brought knowledge to bear in the management of his own affairs, and had much success in farming and grazing pursuits. Over a wide area he was known and trusted, and by his passing the district has lost a man who will be greatly missed and sincerely mourned. He is survived by a sorrowing widow and the following sons and daughters:- George and Herbert (Two Mile Flat), Mesdames W. R. Mills, H. S. Mogg, A. Tomkins (Lawson's Creek), and G. Alexander (Sydney). To the bereaved ones the deepest sympathy of all is extended. The funeral took place to the Church of England portion of the Mudgee cemetery on Monday, the Rev. L. V. Caldwell (Gulgong) officiating at the graveside. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 17 December 1931, p. 4. Charles Rush Obituary |
