Lovell Glendower Trasham - Sydney Waterboard Memorial



I've just had the most fantastic assistance from Vera Jeffery the Archivist at the Sydney Water /Sydney Catchment Authority, Historical Research and Archives Facility.

I discovered in a mention of his death in the Sydney Morning Herald, that Lovell worked for a time at the Sydney waterboard. I finally located the name of the person to contact at the waterboard and she has looked up his records.

Unfortunatly there was no luck finding his employment card but she did locate his name in the Sydney Water Board Memorial book for WW1 & WW2 (the book lists all waterboard staff that served in WWI and WWII). The star next to his name means he died whilst serving in the forces.
