Arrived in the district in 1850. For a number of years he was one of the sturdy teamsters engaged in carrying from Sydney to Tumut.
A few years later he selected the farm at Bombowlee, part of which is known as Linbeck’s Hill. He was an Alderman from 1888 to 1896. He died at the age of 85 on 20 July 1915. The Tumut and Adelong Times 22 Jul 1915 MR. T. LINDBECK. This great old veteran, whose his story dates back to about the same period, as that of Mrs. Murphy, passed away, at his old home at Mundongo, on Wednesday morning last, his age being 85 years. His wife predeceased him by about 20 years. Deceased was one of the best known identities in the district, and when enjoying proper health and strength he took a very prominent part in public matters, having been elected an alderman of the second Coun cil appointed — the town was incor porated in 1887, and in 1890 Mr. Lindbeck became one of the alder men, his position on the poll mak ing it necessary for him to retire at end of the term, in 1893. He was re-elected, however and served on the Council until 1896 when the ballot went against his further elec tion. He was possessed of good common sense, and his options al ways gained respect in all public movements with which he became associated. In the matter of poli tics, he was a most ardent worker, and showed great, earnestness in the cause he espoused. Notwithstanding his advanced age, and the fact that he has been the victim of several epileptic fits of late years, he came regularly to town up to within the last few days, and was well possessed of his faculties. Being a shrewd and careful manager, he amassed a fair amount of wealth, and owned the fine property where he ended his career, having lived there for about half a century. We extend sincerest sympathy, on behalf of our readers, to the rela tives of the two old and respec ted residents whose demise is here recorded. |
