Passing of Mr. Matt Gaffney Shocks NSW Trade Memory
The report notes the death of Mr. Matt Gaffney at the Little Sisters of the Poor Home in Randwick. A former Cobb and Co. driver, he worked along the Macquarie and Warren routes in the 1800s, later retiring at Coolongolook. An old mate, M.R. Rochester, recalls Gaffney’s expert knowledge and steady, honest life.
