About George Arthur Kelly
"Kelly, George Arthur, 1871-1932 Born in the sub-district of Cloonbur No. 1, at Oughterard in County Galway, Ireland on 12 July 1871. George immigrated to Australia in around 1885 and was a member of the 4th contingent of the Victorian Imperial Bushmen when they embarked to fight in the South African conflict (Boer War 1899-1902). The 1903 Electoral Roll places George in 552 Canning Street with his mother and working as a grocer. He was in a bit of trouble in 1905 on a charge of embezzlement to which he pleaded guilty. In 1908 George married Ella Holland and they lived in Western Australia. On 22 February 1916 George enlisted to fight during World War I (1914-1918) with the Australian Imperial Force (AIF). He was wounded in action in France on 15 August 1917 and medically discharged on 12 April 1918. George died in his home at 95 Mary Street in Fremantle on 14 October 1932. He was buried in the Fremantle Anglican Cemetery." Read the full biography by Debbie McCauley at this link https://debbiemccauleyauthor.wordpress.com/biographies/bridget-jane...
