Biography contributed by Daryl Jones

Son of Peter and Maria Louisa HALEY

DEATH OF MR. JULIAN HALEY
The death occurred, at Brookside, Pyengana, on Friday night of Mr. Julian T. Haley, sixth son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Peter Haley. Although his  health had been failing for many years, his death at the age of 46 was unexpected. Mr. Haley was born and educated at Pyengana, and carried  on farming in the district until the time of the Great War, when he enlisted and served with the A.I.F., returning somewhat shaken in health. He  married Miss Ivy Freeman, of Hobart, who, with two children, Patricia and Desmond, survives him. A funeral service was conducted by Rev. Father Fitzpatrick in the Roman Catholic Church of St. Augustine on Sunday morning, and the burial took place at St. Helens.

ST. HELENS
FUNERAL OF MR. J. HALEY.-The funeral of Mr. Julian Haley took place at St. Helens on Sunday afternoon. Although deceased had been in in different health for some years past, his death at his brothers' home at Pyengana came suddenly. A Requiem Mass was celebrated at the Catholic Church, Pyengana, and the cortege left there for the St. Helens Cemetery. On arrival the casket was draped with the Union Jack, and  members of the Portland Sub-branch of the R.S.S.I.L.A. formed a guard of honour and acted as casket bearers. The service at the church and at the graveside was conducted by Rev. W. A. Fitzpatrick. The chief mourners were D. Haley (son), Messrs. A., V., N., B., J., and R. Haley  (brothers). T. Haley (uncle), C. Coombe (brother-in-law), T. C. Haley, V. Haley (cousins), and B. Coombe (nephew).
