Add my storyBiography contributed by Chris Buckley
Enoch (aka Charles) was the youngest of four children of Enoch Woodward (b1858 in Glamorgan, Wales) and Julia (Helen) Ellen Gill (b1867 in Ringarooma, Tasmania). Enoch (an Engine Driver) and Helen married in 1894 in Zeehan, Tasmania where they lived before moving to Hobart.
Charles was a Clerk in Hobart, Tasmania in 1926 when he married Dulcie Frances Elizabeth Barker (b1906 in Zeehan, Tasmania). The couple settled in Hobart where Charles was a Clerk when he enlisted in the ACMF in September 1940 - he had previously served six years with the Militia. Charles was a Staff Sergeant (Service No:T40311) and had been engaged in PoW Control and RAAPC when he was Discharged in June 1945.
Charles and Dulcie remained in Hobart, and the subsequent electoral rolls have Charles' occupation as 'Military Duties'. Charles died in 1956 and Dulcie in 1984.
