  • Notes 
    • Tom was only 4 years old when his mother died and he and his brother Cyril went to live with their grandmother Miriam Jane Hawkins at Warnertown South Australia. In October 1907 he was taken by his father to the farm at Wanilla, South Australia, where he lived until 1912 when the family moved to Cummins, South Australia. There Tom worked on farms until 1918 when he and Cyril joined their father at Kyancutta. Tom shared the family love of horses. He was the proud owner of a show horse named "Cinders"; he won many events for horse and sulky at the Wudinna Show. When he and Olive married, they lived close to his father on Section 31, Hundred of Wannamanna. Later Section 18 was added to the farm. In 1949 Tom and Olive moved to a new farm at Lock while his son Dudley stayed on the farm at Kyancutta. Tom and Olive retired to Port Lincoln in 1956 where they lived in London Street. They joined the Kirton Point Bowling Club and enjoyed many years of retirement and played many bowls tournaments in South Australian country towns and Broken Hill New South Wales. Tom died of Cancer at 73 in 1974 and is buried at the Happy Valley Cemetery in Port Lincoln. (The Tucker Family in Australia, 1992)
