In the words of Frank Lawson "Mick"
"Our mother, Alice Gamble, became a catholic when she married our father, James Lawson. I often wonder about the wedding - who organised it, who was there, etc. In my whole life I can never remember my father or indeed my mother organizing a social occasion. Our parents settled on a property next to my father's parents family at Macedon. Each property was about 150 acres. My father cleared the timber from the bush, built a house and commenced mixed farming (sheep, cows, pigs, milk, apples, firewood, oats). For economic reasons he had to do share farming with a wealthy property owner next door. He also cut telephone and electrictiy poles from Baringo at the foot of Mt Macedon. We were poor in everything but food of which, as we were ona farm, there was an abundance. (Pure cream on our Weeties.) We did not have a motor vehicle until 1932, a REO truck. My father gave the policeman a load of wood for a licence without a driving test."
