When David Hall enlisted in 1901 in the 6th QIB and his details were published with the rank and file in The Queenslander, 13 Apr 1901, he noted his N.O.K. as B. Hall, Swan Terrace, Swan Hill, Brisbane. In the Boer War Service Paybooks for the 6th QIB Bk 2, p. 8, it is noted he directed part of his pay to his mother Mrs C. Hall, Swan Hill. The then suburb of Swan Hill is now part of the suburb of Windsor in Brisbane.
