Morning Bulletin (Rockhampton, Qld. : 1878 - 1954)
Monday 30 December 1889
While living in Rockhampton/ Mt Morgan area in Queensland he played Cricket for a team known as "Gone Bung" and was bowled for a duck, however the team won the match against the Combined Eleven!
I have also found through "Trove", evidence of him playing football for the "Lakes Creek" team near Rockhampton in the early 1890's. Lakes Creek was the site of one of the early meat works, Henry gave his occupation as Butcher
approx 1901 Henry and Margaret moved to Boulder City near Kalgoorlie,Western Australia
