Obituary for George Alfred Byles Pioneer Resident of Bowen
George Alfred Byles, a respected Bowen resident and pioneer figure, died at his home on Wednesday aged nearly 80. Born in Mulderslev, Kingland, in 1860, he arrived in Australia at age seven with his family and settled in Bowen where he lived ever since. He worked in the telegraph office, trained as a wheelwright, and later ran a business with his brother Harry. A long-standing member of the Bowen Lodge, he was known for his mild manners and visited by extensive family and friends at his funeral, which drew large attendance and floral tributes. He leaves a widow, stepchildren, daughters, 22 grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren, along with two surviving brothers.
