Personal Stories
My Great Uncle
I have only recently been made aware of Charles Paxman. He was my grandmother Alice’s older brother. Unfortunately my relatives know very little about Charles. Though I have found out he was involved in the Frankston Fire Department prior to his enlistment. Simone Morabito (Shepherd)
