  • Notes 
    • Clement farmed all his life and his other main interests were church activities. He was a local preacher for many years and a Sunday School Superintendent for 30 years at Owen. Clement was educated at Grace Plains and most probably Pinery. He walked to school after milking the cows.
      As a young man Clem, and his brother Perc, moved on to a farm in the Owen/Alma area and sister Ivy kept house for them. During this period he met his future wife, as she would have been on a farm nearby. He and his brother Hurtle did a trip to Victoria, which would have been a major adventure. They probably visited Marshman Uncles as many of George's brothers had moved interstate. This was the only time Clem ever lift his home state.
      In approximately 1914 Clem and Myrtle, and eldest daughter Audrey, moved to Kilkenny where Clem worked in the wool stores. In approximately 1916 they moved to the farm they purchased on the outskirts of Owen. They became very involved in the affairs of the town and church. Clem was a lay preacher, and Sunday School superintendent for 32 years (1919-1952). Clem was also involved in the various organizations of the town. He was a very good public speaker and had a good singing voices. He enjoyed tennis, golf and dancing. He was known for his kind and outgoing nature and never saw faults in people, only the good in them. He was highly respected in the town.
      When Ken returned from war service and took over the farm, Clem and Myrtle moved into the town (early 1946). Clem remained interested in the farm all his life, building haystacks until he was 75. This was the last year that sheaved hay was cut on the farm, Clem and Myrtle celebrated 50 years of marriage in 1961, Clem's last public office was Foundation president of the Owen Bowling Club. he had also been a member of the Tiller family cricket team. Myrtle supported her husband in all he did. She also enjoyed playing golf and tennis,. After Clem's death her family moved her into a smaller house next door, where she lived until her death.
