MACKAY NOTES
The sad death of Mrs. Alf Herrigan
occurred last week. Deceased had
been ailing for some considerable
time, but her death came as a shock
to all. Mrs. Herrigan was 35 years
of age and was the eldest daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Cowan, of
Mt. Pellon (well known residents of
this district) and was a native of
Mackay. A sorrowing husband and
four children are left to mourn their
loss, besides her mother, father, bro
ther and sisters.

Note 7: Supergroover

1966 C2332 Alfred Dawson Herrigan Thomas Herrigan Mary Jane Dawson
(has the Mary Jane come from his sister - the Dawson is close to mothers family name)
Personal Notes:
Supergrover - The children of this family were put into an orphange in Qld. During that time their surname spelling was changed to Herrigan, not Herrigen as recorded on William's birth certificate. However, the name was orginally Harrigan and spelling was not a top priority in those times of immigration and movement.
