Mackay Mercury 1 Dec 1913
GEORGE IRONSIDE
In the death of Mr. George Iron-
side, which occurred at his residence,
Nebo Road, on Saturday forenoon.
Mackay lost one of its earliest pion-
eers, and one who did much for the
advancement of the district. The
deceased, who attained the age of
71 years, was a native of Scotland.
He came to Mackay about 1870 from
Peak Downs, where he had been en-
gaged as a carrier. Upon arrival
here he pursued a similar calling,
being engaged with his team between
Mackay and outlying stations. Dur-
ing that time he took up a selection
in the neighbourhood of the Barrie
Estate, Eton. About 1880 he sel-
ected "Aberdeen," also in the Eton
district, and engaged in cane grow-
ing, which he continued up till four
or five years ago, when he took up
his residence in own. The deceased
was one of the promoters of the
North Eton Central Mill, one of the
first two central mills to be erected
in the district. He took an active
interest in the progress of the fac-
tory from its inception up to the time
of his death, and occupied a seat on
the directorate. Of a jovial nature
the late Mr. Ironside made firm
friends of all with whom he came in
contact, and the news of his death
will be learnt with keen regret. The
deceased took ill a couple of months
ago, and had been ailing ever since.
He was twice married, his first wife
predeceasing him 13 or 14 years ago,
while his second wife, who was the
relict of the late Mr. H. Langford, of
Eton, survives him. He leaves a
family of four, three daughters and
one son. The former are Mesdames
H. Robertson (Mackay), T. Wolfe
(New South Wales), and T. Cowan
(Mirani), while Mr. George Ironside,
his son, is farming at Eton. The
funeral took place yesterday after-
noon, the Rev. D. Galloway officiating
at the graveside.
