Personal Notes:
John Beale arrived in Tumut in 1862. He was born in England in 1841, came to Australia in 1859, and worked in the New England district for six months and then at Yass. Trylng his hand at gold mining he went to Lamblng Flat (Young) and then to Tumut.

For a time John Beale worked for the Atkinson family who had a farm on the east side of the river upstream from Anderson's bridge. The Atkinsons had established a small brewery and it is believed that John Beale may have learned the trade of a brewer whilst working for them.

Later he engaged in the carrying business between Tumut and Sydney with a horse team.

John Beale, who was known to all as Johnny, was perhaps best known for the brewing business which he established in 1878 near the banks of McFarlane's Creek between Russell and Fitzroy Streets in partnership with a man named Sanderson. His beer was regarded as the equal to any in the State and was distributed to Gundagai, Adelong, Batlow, and all intermediate hotels. His teams of van horses were magnificent and his real pride.
