559 Doris was brought up0 by her maternal grandparents from the age of 3 months, at the request of her mother. The day her mother died Doris remembers being taken out of school (a rare happening) and holding her grandfather's hand as she walked up to her mother's bed, kissing her mother and saying "good by: as directed and her mother saying "You will look after her, wont you?" and he agreed. The day of the funeral she rode in a horse-drawn coach with seats along the side. She wore a grey pinafore dress and white blouse with a black sash across the shoulder tied in a bow on the side.
Some years later, Doris' father asked that Doris come back and live with him but Doris remembers her grandfather replying that he could have her if he paid back every penny it had cost to keep her. Of course Will could not do that and so Doris stayed with the Adcocks until she married. She spent school holidays with the Tuckers. They would take fruit and make jam outside in a copper. She remembers that her Auntie Lou Coulls was the person who stood and stirred it.
She also remembers going to the Coorong to stay with her father and Ethel. They crossed at low-tide in a dray following a row of posts. Because the water came up in the dray they put their feet on boards. The house leaked and she had a miserable time. Her father brought her to the city to missionary meetings when she was a little girl but she was not interested in them as she did not understand them.
Doris attended Croydon Primary School and then Croydon Central School where she learned cooking sewing and stencilling. She attended Hindmarsh Baptist Church and walked there three times each Sunday. She also attended Band of Hope meetings at Finsbury Baptist Church being driven there in a trap by her grandfather. She would recite and Perc would sing. Perc conducted his first Sunday School anniversary at 16. Doris and Perc were baptised on the same night by Rev Norman Hanson who later was to marry them but at the time they were not interested in each other. However, as time went on Perc started waling Doris home, leaving her several houses away, because they feared her grandmother Adcock would not approve. (Doris' grandfather had died when she was 12). Doris was not permitted to play sport, although she loved basketball, because on Saturdays she had to clean the silver.
Doris hated school and left the day she turned 14 and worked for her Aunt Violet Mutton, hr mother's sister, who had children. She loved children and ran a Sunday School on Sunday evenings for the Adcock cousins while their parents attended church. Her Uncle Arthur Adcock got her a job at Miller Andersons. She wanted to serve but they wanted someone in the alterations. She worked there until the depression and then took up dressmaking from home. She bought a wardrobe which was kept in the front room and made frocks for 10 shillings.
Perc and Doris travelled all over the metropolitan area with the Metropolitan Choir and Lyric Quartet (both were male choirs) and sang with the Hindmarsh Church Choir at half-yearly Baptist meetings. Perc was also a member of the Masonic lodge
Doris made her own wedding dress, copying the design from her mothers wedding photo. She also made dresses for the bridesmaid and for many of the aunts and other guests. Doris and Perc celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary at a Sit-down dinner held at Janice's at Campbelltown; then their 50th at an open house at Janice's at Eden Hills with their full wedding party.
After Perc's death Doris moved to Melrose Park retirement village where her family, old friends and new friends from the village. (The Tucker Family in Australia, 1992)

581 Edward attended Grace Plains School when he was not tending the sheep or doing other jobs around the house. So his schooling was limited, but in those days it was not compulsory to attend school. His religious upbringing was at the Grace Plains Methodist Church which, prior to amalgamation was the Bible Christian Church, built on land donated by his grandfather. he also spent some time at the Church training College conducted by Dr Torr at Brighton, and as a result was an active lay preacher in the Methodist Church wherever he resided throughout his married life. Ruby's parents were married at Alma, hence her second name. Soon after Edward and ruby met, rub's parents moved to Glenelg; hence they married at Glenelg.
After the wedding Edward and Ruby went to live on the farm at Owen. After their second son was born they moved to Seaton where Edward became a poultry farmer. They called the house "Glendon". but with the arrival of Lyle they had difficulty renaming it and never did before selling it and moving to rented premises at Fulham Gardens where they remained only a short while until Edward obtained a trolley and horses and proceeded to Victor harbour where he acquired a scrub roller to clear a 600 acre property he had purchased 2 miles from the town. Some time between leaving Owen and acquiring the property at Victor Harbour he had bought a farm at Lameroo and had his brother-in-law Ned Lindsay working it on shares. Once when he returned from Victor Harbour one of the back wheels on the trolley had its iron rim nearly worn through in on spot as he had tied the wheel to act as a brake coming down the old Willunga Hill. He then sold the Victor Harbour property as the Lindsay s were moving off the Lameroo farm, so they then moved to this town for 4 years before moving back to a house which he had built at Fulham Gardens. Once more he had a share farmer on the Lameroo farm which he kept for quite a number of years before selling it to that share farmer. All this time he had only one motor car which he bought while at Owen. It was an Overland tourer registration number 19075. His brother Bert bought one at the same time, and his ws numbered 19076. At Fulham Gardens he worked as a lorry driver until the war years when he went to Holdens to work on armament production. His next move was to Woodville where after the war he was a wool presser and storeman at the Farmers' Union woolstores at Port Adelaide. His brother Perc worked alongside him. After retirement he moved again, this time to Grange where he was able to indulge his great love of gardening until failing health took both Edward and Ruby into a nursing home where they remained until they died.

OBITUARY SPOKEN AT EFFIE'S FUNERAL;
"We are gathered here today to pay our last respects to Effie Murton and to Comfort and support her family in their loss and grief. And her family do - rightly - grieve at her passing from this life for although she lived a long and full life, there is always sadness at the death as those who remain come to terms with their loss. And grief is the God-given emotion by which we work through the fact that a loved one is gone from among us.
But while we grieve, we can also rejoice. We rejoice that the tired body of Effie Murton will never know struggle or pain again. We rejoice that because for her life many, many other people came to know life and love and acceptance. And we rejoice because of he Christian faith which gives us the assurance that she has now passed on to something far better than she ever knew while living here on this earth.
Effie Murton was born Effie Susannah Holman on 75h November 1894 at Nelshaby near Port Pirie. Her own mother died when Effie was 11 years old and from that time onward Effie began what was to be a life-time of looking after others. It began with her four brothers and father to whom she became mother and provider at the age of 13 years. Her father was a local preacher, and it was from him that she learnt the Christian principles of love and service to others that were to fashion her life-style for the future.
About 10 years after the death of her mother, the family moved to Kyancutta where her father remarried. Effie herself married Norman Murton in June 1915 and together they set up house at Cummins. Because of Norm's work with the Railways they were often on the move and at one stage home was a tent at Ungarra.
Despite the many moves, Effie managed to raise 10 children, and if that wasn't enough, I'm told that house was often home to many more. Colour and creed were of no importance to Effie and both aborigines and whites came to know that there was always a spare place at the meal-table and a spare bed at the Murton home. Her family was to become an even bigger responsibility when she undertook the care of her arthritis-stricken mother-in-law for some 20 yars. It is not surprising that her church attendance and community activities were somewhat curtailed during these hectic years.
Effie and Norm saw 50 yars of marriage before Norm died, and Effie lived on to see her family of 10 children grow to some 40 grandchildren, 181 great-grandchildren and 11 great-great-grandchildren. That family has been of much comfort to Effie since Norm died but the past 18 years were often long and lonely for her. Because of a broken hip her own home responsibilities ceased, but even so, her love and caring continued to reach out to others through her hands for her crocheting work continued into her 88th year.
That brief picture of Effie Murton's life was given to me by members of her family. As I put it together I began to see a remarkable woman - a woman whose capacity to work, to love and to care for others was enormous. Her work-load, without the aid of the mod-cons we have today would have killed any lesser person at a very young age, but she did it all without complaint and always with a smile.
My enquiries about Effie didn't stop with the family though. I talked with some of the members of this community who knew her and without exception their comments about her were all the same. Those comments are best summed up in the words of one person who said:
"Effie was a very warm person who, despite her large family and heavy work-load always had a smile, a friendly word, and loved a good laugh."
On 26th February 1983 a remarkable woman died. A long and busy life wore out the earthly body of Effied Murton, but her trust was in her God to look after her heavenly body and soul. And so today we give thanks - thanks for her life, and thanks for the faith which has now given her new life with God who has called her home to himself." (The Tucker Family in Australia, 1992)
