MALC recalls [2003]:


There was a mighty man of wealth named Treweeke who lived on a large estate near Goondiwindi. He married Lina Tom — cousin Alby’s sister. Alby, whom we knew, was the son of the Tom who found the gold. Auntie Ida, being a relative, was invited to Goondiwindi to act as a lady help. I used to hear a lot about Lena Treweeke when I was young. She travelled overseas for pleasure when such a thing was very rare. I heard how she had been to the Arctic Circle and seen the Aurora Borealis. This was really something in those days.

In later years, Lina lived with her daughter in the Cremorne area and used to visit Dot Crawshaw.
