With just 12/6d in his pocket, Jim arrived with wife Alice and six children to start anew. Upholsterer by trade, Jim worked at many jobs to support his family. Lived in Kalgoorlie before moving to Bunbury, never returning to England. Well Done dear Mum and Dad. Your family loved and admired you both.
