Note 1: Burial info Brisbane Courier 25 Oct 1923 The late Mr. Edward Kay Tidswell, whose death took place at Carella, Camp- bell-street, Toowoomba on October 17, was 68 years of age. He was the second son of Mr. H. Ernshaw Tidswell, a by- gone Sydney merchant. He lived at Balmain and was educated at Camden College, Sydney. Forty-five years ago he came to Queensland where he engaged in pastoral pursuits till his retirement in 1911. He obtained the management of Wigton station, in the Burnett district, and after the sale of that property he resided in Maryborough till 1889, when he purchased Nalla station, in the Burnett district which he held for seventeen years. He then moved to the Downs, and purchased the property known as Lyndley in the Dalby district. This he sold in 1911 and afterwards lived quietly in Toowoomba. He is survived by his wife, two sons (Messrs. Chas. E., and Colin Tidswell who are following pas- toral pursuits in the Charleville district) and a daughter (Mrs. Langton, who re- sides in Brisbane). The eldest son, Douglas, made the great sacrifice in the recent war, being killed at Polygon Wood on 20th September 1917. Of a retiring yet kindly disposition, the late Mr. Tids- well generously supported the public funds during the late war.
