It was neither my intention, nor would it have been possible tor me to write a comprehensive account of every significant family group, so I offer no apology tor the way I have written the Tuohey Family History. Where information has been offered or accessible to me, I have included such material.
Public records, family documents and newspapers have provided me with valuable information about the Tuohey brothers - Thomas and Patrick and their wives - Mary (Fahey) & Mary (Conroy) from the time of their arrival to Port Phillip, Victoria in the late 1850's until their eventual settlement as early pioneers in Notth Eastern Victoria- at Toolleen and Myola /Mt Pleasant respectively, after a period on the Sandhurst goldfields.
Many hours over a couple of years were spent in the State Ubrary of Victoria reading the local newspapers, particularly The Elmore Standard and the Rushworth Chronicle, in order to have a sense of the times and major events surrounding them. I have attempted to recreate an account of the environment and lifestyle of my own grandparents built around my own knowledge and experiences, so that my descendants can be afforded a glimpse of the past. My mother, Julia (Tuohey) Wade engendered in me a strong sense of family through her interesting and enlightening accounts about her relatives. She was a great story teller and always held a very receptive and captive audience, although in later years, she often chided me for writing down snippets of information as she talked.
My account will have closer focus on my family line rather than on my grandfather Laurence Tuohey's kinfolk. I invite other Tuohey family descendants to rework and refine my modest attempt where I have not done justice to their forebears, or have given Incorrect information.
Care must be exercised in distinguishing between the family groups of Thomas and Patrick as both family groups shared common christian names:-
Mary Ann, Laurence, Thomas, Patrick, Bridgit, and catherine. INDEX.

There may have been other family members, but this account concerns only these two - mOMAS & PATRICK. TIIOMAS & PATRICK TUOHEY SONS OF lAWRENCE & MARY (F'lanagan) TUOHEY County Galway, Ireland. mOMAS TUOHEY (1831*1898) arrived Port Phillip on "Ben Nevis" 31-8-1857. PATRICK TUOHEY (1834*1905) arrived Port Phillip on ''Eagle" 31-3-1859. It had been said that they were orphaned as schoolboys, and that they arrived home one day to find their parents gone- prestmtably taken away and executed. They were not folllld to be buried in any known cemete1y. The boys who were aged about twelve and fourteen years were taken in by an elderly couple who apparently lived near a lake or maybe on an island within a lake or loch. Family members had been told that the boys used to row the elderly couple across the water to daily Mass. One family researcher suggests that Lawrence Tuohey and his wife Mary Flanagan (the parents of Thomas and Patrick Tuohey) may not have been victims of foul-play or intiigue, but victims of the Plague. This would account for the parents not being found to be buried in any known cemetery. Thomas Tuohey arrived in Port Phillip on the 31st. August 1857, and it is not known what his movements were until he engaged in mining on the Sandhurst (Bendigo) goldfields where he was joined by his younger brother Patrick and possibly other family members. In 1865, the two brothers Thomas & Patrick were manied at St Kilian's Church, Sandhurst (Bendigo) by the Reverend Father Edward O'Dwyer, to Mary Fahey and Mary C.. One interesting finding was that the sw·naxne of the mothers of both women was TUOHY(I'UOIIEY. Mary Fahey's mother was formerly HANNORAH TUOHY. The maiden name of the mother of Mary Conroy was :MARY TUOHEY. Page 3 The Tuohey brothers took up land on the Mt. Pleasant Creek, in the Parish of Campaspe in the late 1960's. Thomas later resided permanently at Toolleeu, and Patrick remained at Mt. Pleasant (often called Campaspc or Myola ). Cnmpaspe is nlso the name of the Patish. Neither Thomas nor Patrick were literate, education being a very scarce conm10dity in Ireland in the early part of the 19th. Century. From illiterate, or barely literate beginnings, the descendants of these humble or dispossessed Irish folk have a strong representation across the range of professions, and can even claim an Associate Professor, two Doctors of Philosophy, a distinguished Redemptorist Priest (a missionary in the Phillipines in the early 1900's), and many teachers (including several members of religious orders). Some descendants even continue to farm on the original land holdings of 1bomas and Patrick. rfl1ere are various spellings of the name, and the Gaelic spelling of the name would be the only correct one. On documents the name has been variously Tuohy!fwohy!foohey!fwohey!fouhey/Touhay. On the Schedule A - Application for a License to occupy Crown Lands under the 42nd Section of "The Amending Land Act 1865", (2nd. April 1868) Patrick Tuohey (his mark X) is spelt TUHY. On Section 31, "Land Act 1869", (15th. June 1872) his sumame is TWOHY, and on 19-12-1872, the W is crossed out and the surname is TUOHY. The Office of Lands and Smvey, Deeds Division sought clarification of the correct spelling -23-5-1876: and the accepted spelling in his reply was 'IU OHEY. O''l'uohy, Twohig, O'Towey,'l\lfl'y. Woulfe makes the definite. statement that the sept of 0'1'uathalgh is a bmnch of the Ui Maine, formerly seated at Aughrim, Co. Galway. They are not mentioned· in The Tribes and G.tstoms of By Many or in O'Donovan's notes thereto. It is a fact that families called Tuohy, Touhy, 1\\ohy etc. are for the most part now to be found in Clare and south-east Galwdy. Co. Galway is missing from the census of 1659: that enumeration places them chiefly in Co. Tipperary - in Kilmanagh alJd Owney and Arra, the baronies adjacent to Thomond. It L'> Cb. Tipperary, too that the name appears most frequently in seventeenth and eighteenth century document'> such as Hearth Money mlL'l, leases, rourt cases and the like. Already by the middle of the sixteenth oontury it had berome quite numerous in C'-0. Cork too. There the form 1\\ohig is now used in Euglish ... l'atrick J. 1\vohey (b.1865), a notable piper was tw son and grandson of Co. Galway tnen, also pipers of note, who, however, acrording to O'Neill's Irish Mlnt.i.rels and Musldans bore the name of T'>mhill in English. l have not met another example of 1\.vohill (ie. 0 Tuathail or O'Toole) being changed to Touhey or 1\iohy. T\'\ohill is usually found in Co. Cbrk. Dr. Charles Tuohy was Bishop of Limerick from 1814 to 1828.

May 1857 with 409 other passengers for a voyage of 140 d_ays. The Ship's Master was William Herron. Thomas was possibly travelling with three other companions. His age was 24 years. His ccupation was described as Farmer. He arrived in Port Phillip on the 31st. August 1857, and it is not known what his movements were at this time. He later engaged in mining on the Sandhurst gold-fields where he was joined by his younger brother Patrick two years later in 1859. THOMAS TUOHEY Married MARY FAHEY -23-5-1865. Thomas Tuohey (28years) married Mary Fahey (22 years) daughter of Thomas Fahey (occupation Farmer) and Hannorah Tuohey, at St Kilian' Church. Sandhurst on 23rd of May 1865. The celebrant was the Rev. Father Edward O'Dwyer. and the witnesses were John Tuohy and Bridget Mannix. The Victorian Birth. Death and Marriage Registration Number was 1805, and the Church Register number was 805. All parties were from County Galway. Mary Fahey and the witness Bridget Mannix were able to sign their own names. The others were only able to make their own mark (X). Thomas and Mary resided in Sandhurst until the Tuohey brothers applied for Ucences to occupy Crown Land under the Acts of 1865. McCrae Street, Sandhurst was the early address given for the t\VO brothers. It was here that a child from each family - Mary Ann and Thomas died possibly from diphtheria, aged one year in 1868. Thomas & Mary took up land in the Campaspe region in the late 1860's. and later settled at ''Erindale" Toolleen where they farmed until their deaths in 1898 and 1912 respectively. MARY FAHEY Arrived Colony 1862. According to Mary's Death Notice, Mary was a native of County Galway, and arrived in the Colony of Victoria in 1862, aged about 19 years. Mary was a relatively well educated woman, and her services were in high demand from family and neighbours in reading, writing letters and filling in forms. to name some of her abilities. Letters from Ireland were also very infrequent and were occasions for great rejoicing and celebration. News that a letter had arrived \VOuld be spread throughout the family and close friends like wild-fire, and the whole community would assemble for the reading. Undoubtedly, many a song was sung and many a story told ·into the early hours. [Information per Dr. Patrick Tuohey] Page 7 Thomas and Mary Tuohey lived at "Erindale", Toolleen, and Patrick and Mary Tuohey at "Fairfield", Mt. Pleasant/Myola/Campaspe. The two brothers would meet regularly halfway between the two districts, by walking towards each other, and spend a pleasant .. day reminiscing over old times in Ireland as young men, and in Bendigo on the gold fields. As the day wore on, they would make their peace and walk towards their respective homes, still talking to each other furiously. Just when out of ear-shot, they . would start walking back tow4rds each other to continue the conversation. This procedure continued back and fotward until darkness made the final parting inevitable. Thomas and Mary reared a family. of five daughters and five sons. T\\0 sons Thomas and Joseph died in infancy, 1866 and 1883 respectively. :,CI!EDL.LE C. SCHEDULE C. CffiCE Ci' i1t ~ STATIST.

Obituary:· One of the oldest and most respected residents of this district, Mr. Thomas Tuohey, joined the great maJority at lam. on Saturday, and was interred in the Runnymede Cemetery on Sunday. The deceased, who was 67 years of age, had suffered from cancer for about 12 months, and for some time had been under the care of the late Dr. Gray of your own town. The flmeral was very lengthy, fully 90 vehicles and 50 horsemen taking part. The Rev. Father Moore read the burial service very impressively, and the mortuary arrangements were attended to lJY Mr FizeJJe, of Bendigo. lne deceased leaves a large family, most of whom are grown up. Tl1e Elmore Standard Aug. 12 1898•. ___ MRS MARY TUOHEY: (6-6-1912) aged 69 years. Cypress: Mrs Tuohey. Once again the grim hand of Death has visited the Toolleen district, and carried off one of the oldest most highly respected residents, in the person of Mrs. Tuohey, relict of the ]ate Thomas Tuohey, the sad event occurring on 'Thursday, 6th. inst., at her late residence, "Erindale". The deceased lady, who had attained her 69th. year, was a native of Co. Galway, Ireland, and emigrated to this countty in 1862, thus being a colonist of 30 years. After a few years, she married her late husband (who preceded her 14 years ago). and settJed on the Bendigo goldfields for some few years. TI1ey then joined the land-seekers and took up property on Mt. Pleasant Creek, and by combined and assiduous Jabor, eventually succeeded in accumulating a comfOJtable home. The ]ate Mrs. Tuohey commenced to break up some months ago, and despite all that me.dical care, accelerated by kind and careful nursing lavished upon her by a loving family could do, she passed away as above stated, the recipient of all earthly consolation. The deceased lady during her residence of more than 40 years in the Too11een district gained a large circle of friends, to whom she was everready to lend a helping band. In the sweet cause of charity, her efforts were ever to the fore. and her death has cast an intense gloom over the whole neighbourhood, for she was a good mother, a true benefactor, and a sterling trustworthy friend. A family of five daughters and three sons (three of whom are married) survive to mourn a sad and irreparable loss. Her funeral to the Runnymede Cemetery took place on Saturday, the 8th. inst., and was one of the largest ever seen in the district. Her remains which were enclosed in a magnificent oak coffin, were home to the grave by Messrs. L. Tuohey, M. Tuohey, T. Tuohey, and M. Comer, three nephews and a fast ftiend of the deceased, Rev. Father Ryan read the burial se1vice, and Mr. Mulqueen carried out the funeral arrangements in his usual efficient manner.

At one time, there was a bout of plague going around the district (Toolleen) and nobody would volunteer to bury the corpses, except for Patrick and his mate, Jim Carmody. The Carmody's and the Tuohey's were neighbours in Myola over many years. Patrick (Sandy) was frequently visited in Bendigo by my father Joe Wade because he enjoyed his company. Kath I larncy told me that her brothe-rs Pat and LlUiie Healy bumped into Patrick (Doull), his wife Mercia and Lilian I .yons as they were walking along Swanston Street during the crowded Eucharistic Congress March in the city in the 1930's. They were both SUil)rised and delighted to find one another in such a dense crowd. Dr. Patrkk Tuohey re.lated an anecdotal story of his father, (3rd generation) Patrick Tuohey. Patrick (DouJl) was a bit of a lair. One day as his yotmg brother Lany was walking past the house, he sang out: 'Come and help me this minute.' Lany obediently went over to where Doull was bending over his hat on the ground 'I've got a baby bird under the hat,' he said, 'when I lift the hat, you grab the bird and make sure it doesn't tly away.' Doull hovered for a second to en:mre that Llrry was in place, then he lifted the hat quickly and ran Jike hell. Needless to say, Lany grabbed a large, fresh deposit recently left behind by the family cow. MYOLA HALL.

Kate attended State School No. 1336 at Toolleen as did other members of her family over a span of ye.a rs. Quoting from "A Tribute to TooJJeen" Page 26 re school - " until the Crosbie School building was ready to house pupils on its new Toolleen site, Messrs. 1bos Tuohey and Thos Henderson, each in turn, sought to gather school requisites so badly needed while school was being held in the Church." This was just one of the many indications on how our early pioneers valued education for their children.

Patrick Tuohey ( 27 years) married Mary Conroy (21 years) the daughter of Michael Conroy (occupation Labourer) and Mary Tuohey al St. Kilian's Church, Sandhurst on 6-2-1865. The celebrant was the Reverend Father Edward O'Dwyer, and the witnesses were Thomas Tuohey and Mary ?Tuohy/C.onroy (her X mark). The Victorian Birth Death and Marriage Registration number 685, and the Register numlwr was R64 in the Parish of St. Kilinn's and the district of Sandhurst. 'Ibe par<.~nts of PHtrick wen.~ T, 'There are various spellings of the. name, and Gaelic spelling of the name would be the only correct one. On documents the name has been variously recorded as - Tuohyfrwohynwohy{roohey{rooheyfrwohey{rouhey{rouhaytruhy. The reoorder v.rrote the name as it sounded. In the early 1860's, the Lands Department sought cla1ification of the oorrect spelling of the name lodged for a Land Grant in the name of P Patrick Tuohey{ruohy occupied AHotments - 99.100,101 and 102 from May 1868. 1ne Mounted Police C.onstable for the District lodged a Report to the Assistant Commissioner of Lands and Sutvey, Melbourne, with information about fencing, description of same, and also of dwelling; extent of land cleared and cultivated; any improvements (water etc.); and if the occupier was the bona fide resident. Mounted Constable Wealing 1535 or 1335 lodged the undated document (? 1872). He describes the holding as having 53 acres of heavily timbered oountry cleared and cropped with wheat. The dwellings had been erected about four years and were classed as good The buildings were - a bam with log sides and a bark roof, 26 ft.x 12 ft.: a bark and log daily, 12 ft.x 12 ft.; a house 20 ft.x 12 ft. slabs of bark roof- of two rooms; and a piggery of split stuff, 15 ft.x 20 ft., 5 rails with 4 divisions. Page 35 MARRIAGE CERTIJTICATE: PATRICK TUOHEY & MARY CONROY 6-2-1865. [R. V .M.B.D.] Page 36 The garden around the house was one chain square, with a dose vertical sapling fence. 'Ibe cattle yard was chock and logt one chain squaret and the milking yard was 45 ft.x 45 ft.t of split stuff. TI1e fencing- the east side of the property was fenced, 14 chains on the south side, two lines of doglegged fence across the allotment from north to south, and 200 panels of 3 - rail &plit fence along the creek on the west side. The fencing was described as good The east side chock and log, South side chock and log. Cross fences doglegged. West side ordinary split fence, erected about three years. These descriptions indicate that Patrick (maybe with some helpers), or perhaps just even the two brothers) must have had to work laboriously felling trees in heavily timbered country. Timbers in the district were stringy bark, ironbark, eucalypts, grey boxt and possibly she-oaks, just to namt· a few. Patrick left his family behind in Bendigo during the e.arly developmental stages. Living would have been both primitive and simple, with little time reserved for respite. His son Lawrence born 1866, had his early schooling in Bendigo. Possibly Patrick spent arOlmd five or six years preparing the family home at Mt. Pleasant. The. tools used would have been simple implcnlC-uls {or splitting .and sh.aping timber, and long hours of physical toil must have been spent, with little proh.~ction from inclement weather or thought of personal comfort. The mind boggles when one thinks about how they acquired food, drink or she.lter; or whether they were ever sick, injured, lonely or starving. We had never heard complaint about what a hard life they had, they just got on with what they had to do. True pioneers and trailblazers. Their ploughs would have been primitive one furrow plougl1s with handmade wooden frameworks. We also leam that Patrick had cows and cattle, pigs, and possibly poultry. The close sapling 1ence would have served a twotold purpose- to confine, and to keep out marauders. Fences were vital in such dense bush to protect small children, and to prevent poultry and stock from waudering away. Bank's description of l:.atrick Tuohey. From all accounts Patrick had a reddish beard and solid build, and his physical description, the name of the ship on which he arrived (fhe "Eagle"), and his address at Mt Pleasant, Campaspe were used as a 1onn of identification at the Union Bank, because he could only make his mark (X). l~ge 37 PATRICK TUOHEY (1834 * 1905) DEATH N011CE • PATRICK TUOHEY: (31·7-1905) aged 71 years. Obituary: It is with regret that we have to record the de.ath of one of the oldest and most highly respected distJict residents, in the person of Mr. Patrick Tuohey, which took place suddenly at his residence, Mt. Pleasant Creek, on Monday, the 31st. ult. He had been in his usual health and spirits, and had even performed some light duties during the day, and at night~ while supeiYising the loading of some whcnt, he suddenly complained of a pain, and was helped into bed. Available remedies were app1ied, but without effect, and he expired in about twcntv minutes. Deceased, who had attained the advanced age of 71 years, was a mitive of C.o~mty Galway, Ireland, and came to this cotmtry in 1959, at the request of his late brother, who predeceased him seven years ago. He settled on the gold-fields of Bendigo, where he prospered, and in July 1863, he selected land on Mt. Pleasant Creek, where he resided tiU the time of his death. He afterwards purchased large holdings thereby accumulating a large amount of propmty. 'D1e news of his sad and gloomy demise cast an intense gloom over the whole locality. as he was an e~pecial favourite, and by his kind and jovial demeanour had gained the respect and esteem of everyone with whom he came in wntact, as was evidenced by the large concourse of people that assembled to pay the last tribute of respect hy attending the funeral. 'Inc cortege consisted of the hearse, two mourning coaches, 102 vehicles, and about 20 horsemen. The remains which were enclosed in a beautiful oak coffin, were borne to the gmvc by Messrs. L. J.

Deceased leaves a widow, four sons, and four daughte.rs, all grown up, to mourn their sad and untimely loss. His youngest son is in the Redemptorist Monastery, Ballarat, studying for the priesthood.

Mary was the daughter of Michael C'~nroy (occupation - Labourer) and Mary Toohey of County Galway.

Snndhurst in IR65. { Tntil Patrick had cleared the land and provided a home for his family at Mt. Pleasant (later called Myola) Mary possibly shared accommodation with relatives in McCrea Street, Sandhurst for five or six years. The family of her fourth child Thomas believe that he was the first child in the family to be born at Mt. Pleasant (Titomas was born in 1872). Documents related to the three older children confirm this belief. Mary and Patrick earned respect and a deep bond of affection with their children and grandchildren through their keen sense of humour, and because of their deep understanding of human foibles and individual weakness. They were not afraid to exercise discipline when this was required. Kath Harney related that her mother ("Bidsy'', Bridget) was often sent down to the creek to find a willow &witch for a parent to apply discipline to Patrick in particular. They also attempted to give their children opportunities that were not possible for themselves. Page 41 MRS MARY TUOHEY DIED AGED 64 YEARS -1907. MRS MARY TUOHEY di~d (11-10-1907) aged 64 y~ars.

A cow shed at the back of the house was made from hark. The spaces unck-r the caves of the· old barn were designed to contain charcoal. Possibly the ptll'JX)SC was for insulation. There were wooden racks with milk trays on top. and when the milk settled the cream was skimmed off the top. In my youth I recall helping to clean the milk separators.

A parly took place in the evening at the residence of tire bride's paretds, and a pleasant time was passed._The RusiiWorth Chronicle May 28. 1897. __ Page 48 All but Uncle Pat were born in the farmhouse on the hiJI. Uncle Pat, the first child was born in Bendigo. as was customary for a first birth. When my mother Julia Tuohey was born, she was the first daughter after four sons, and Lawrence's sister JuJia (Tuohey) Hillman walked all the way from Mt. Pleasant to welcome the little girl who was to be her namesake. One section of the house had been a school in the district, possibly Comella or Colbinabbin East, provide.d additional space for a large family. The original homestead became the kitchen, and family room of the farm. That place could tell many a tale. At one end, there was a large open brick fireplace with two bobs large enough for a child to get close to the fire and make toast with a long handled wire toasting fork. A crane, (a movable arm on which hung the heavy cast iron pots, kettles and hot water fountain) was made in the forge by Lawrence Tuohey one of his many utilitarian skills. He also made iron saucepan stands or whatever was needed around the farm. Often the items were fashioned out of scrap or refashioned out of broken iron wheels, gates, tanks etc. Gate hinges, joints, catches etc. were often made out of broken metal pieces from old hamesses. Many items were purchased from the sale of equipment at the Balaclava mine at Whroo. There are still items around the farm (later owned by his youngest son Charles), the handiwork of Lawrence Tuohey. Uncle Chari was very proud of the desk that was made by his father. The fowl house was also built by l1im. The steps at the front of the house were from the Glengarry gold-mine at Colbinabbin, and a large iron pot imported by David Mitchell for boiling beef for the manufacturing of buJiy beef(purchased at a Clearing Sale) was used for watering stock. · ., ,.f.\ I, .;'. ·' ' TilR 11JOHRY HOME AT COIJBJNABDIN. Page 49 The underground cellar with its damp-smelling whitewashed walls (later home for creepy crawlies and spiders) housed more relics from the past, including butter boxes, preseiVing jars and large iron and wooden mangles for ironing the linen. One grand-daughter Lois Lambert recalls playing with the old family baby cradle on the side veranda, and the pram in the passageway with a box containing a long thick plait of Julia (Tuohey) Wade's hair. The trees surrounding the farm included palm and pine trees, mulberry and almond trees, and peppercorn trees for shade. One ancient mulberry tree maybe still smvives. The garden was full of geraniums, purple bouganvillia, orange t~ma, lemon scented verbena and other hardy plants. A TUOHEY CAR -Early 1900's. Barns were popular places for community entertainment. One even served as a roller skating ring in the district. Lawrence Tuohey's barn was opened in 1915. and was the place wh.:.rc fumily and fund raising functions were held for Queen competitions, euchre pat1ies,& tennis clubs. The family had various abilities as singers and musicians or as hosts or hostesses. Eileen played the violin and had a beautiful singing voice. Julia played the piano and sang songs like "Smiles". All of the boys could sing well. Page SO ·•. .,, ., ') Tom was particularly noted for his singing voice. Eik~en and Julia entertained at various functions around Colbinabbin and nearby distlicts, and Eileen was still being imited to sing at weddings and other functions. even as a much older woman. I thought her voice was as good as, or may have even better than Gladys Moncrieff, had she had been exposed to the same opportunities. Tite family calVed their heights on the ham door, and many friends carved their names into the gum trees at the top of the hil1. Uncle Pat had adult responsibilities at ten years of age. I had heard that be had to be lifted onto the wagon to take wheat to Elmore for the family. Uncle Pat and Uncle Tom had most of their e.arly schooling at Myola State School. They stayed with relatives. The other children went to State School No. 1218, at Colbinabbin, now called Colbinabbin West. I beard that Mick Tuohey had been showman with horses in the school ground and was always racing his horse over hurdles in the school-yard, Mwu said that if their parents had known half of the frivolity and tom-foolery that went on going to and from schooL they would have collapsed. Boys hanging out of vehicles over moving wheels etc., or Julia scrapping in the boobialla bushes at the school \1\'ith Melva Vickers. Tuohey's had many horse.s at one period of time. 80-90 yearlings were bought by the butcher in Heathcote... etc. I believe that they had more than one hundred and fifty horses in the paddocks towards Comella. Lawrence and Margaret had two registered stud horses - "Laurette" and ''N etherfactor" (spelling may be incorrect). Some of the Clydesdale draught horses names that I remember were Captain, Rose, Ruby and Jack Uncle Mick, as a young lad was plaiting the tails of some of these large and beautiful animals, when one kicked him, causing him to sustain a broken jaw and become attached to a batbed wire fence. 'I11e horse stables had thatched roofs and split log walls. The horse troughs were hollowed out logs worn very shiny from the constant friction between the horses' mouths and the chaff during feeding. ·n1e womenfolk kept up a constant supply of hot tea and food for the men while they '-'·'Orking in the paddocks. Wire meat safes were hung in the trees (to keep the cooked meat cool), for the working men to help themselves. Tite Tuohey brothers demonstrated discerning skills associated with stock and with horses in pa11icular. Uncle Steve was always in command around any horse. He bred Trotters and Pacers having prominent success with "Mirthful Lass", and "Adaptor" with whom he who won the coveted Interdominion Cup in the 1960's. In the early 1940's the regular workhorses were gradually retired Clydesdales were the regular work horses bred in Colbinabbin and nearby districts. Teams were used to pull the farm implements. Page 51 Tuohey's also had a good stud red roan shorthorn bull "Yinbaron Bridegroom" which won many awards, including Champion, at vatious Shows. Their Berkshire boars and sows also \mn awards. The Elmore Standard October 22nd. 1921 states that there was a better show of pigs than in recent years, and the prizes went to L Tuohey... & others. C.oursing and greyhound racing were also popular sports in the district. Tuohey's trained two whose name-s I remember as "Brindle'' and "Bert". However there was no record of their successes. Circumstances changed for the family after Lawrence had septic poisoning from a verdigris infected cut in his little finger. He required the care of two nurses twenty four hours a day, and he was never to regain his former state of health. Much then depended on Gran and the boys. In 1903 Lawrence was reported to be getting the top yield of six bags of oats to the acre, when d1e average. yield was around two bags to the acre. The year was not a good one. He held successful trials of machinery on his property, including a trial of Mitchell & C.o's five furrow plough. Lawrence was a farsighted and progressive thinker. He incorp:Hated new machinery and ideas into his enterprise wherever possible. He had such equipment as a traction engine and a threshing machine. When Mt. Camel Station was sold about 1920, he bought the shearing plant (nickel plated) which was purchased overseas. A Mr. Begg was the Manager. Four shearing machines were driven by a small engine. The flooring boards in the shearing shed were original boards from Mt. Camel. He also purchased numerous items from the Mitchell &tate Cle..aring Sale that included a wire garden setting and a set of four pictures depicting gum trees and moonlight scenes. Lawrence was a district wheat buyer for John Darling and Co. He did the books at night by lamplight, and was held in high esteem in the commtmity. Five or six thousand pow1ds was often banked at any one time. He was involved with community activities, and was a member of the C.olbinabbin Debating Society, Rural Fire Brigade (formed 1003), the Picnic O>mmittee., and the Victorian Fanners Union, to name a few. lAWRENCE TUOHEY DIED AGED 60 YEARS- 1926. Lawrence died suddenly on d1e 29-3-1926 while he was coming ti·om the milking yard accompanied by his two distraught children Eileen and Charles. His obituary described hint as a man of sterling character, a very fine neighbour, and a citizen who at all times did his best to advance the district. MARGARET TUOHEY DIED AGED 82 YEARS • 1950.

December 1899 Lawrence Tuohey set off in the horse and cart to fetch tlw midwife Mrs. Egan to assist his wife Maggie preparing for the bhth of their second child at home on the Colbinabbin hill. Before their return, however, Thomas had arrived safe and we11. The couple's first child Patrick was born in Bendigo but Tom and the remainder of the family were born at home. Tom completed his formal schooling at Myola school, staying for some time with his relations on his father's side at Mount Pleasant Creek. He finished school with his Merit Certificate. THOMAS 'llJOHE\' (C 1920'S) THOMAS & PATRICK 1lJOHEV MAG & DOLL TtJOJmY(I'OOIIIN (C 1910 at Myoh.1} Life became very busy for Tom. He assiste-d his father and brothers to run the farm as well as helping to clear new land. Titey bred many horses and had their own dairy with a thatched roof where they churned cream to make their own butter. The boys used to camp at a new property to clear it. They used to cut hay into chaff around the district with a traction engine to tow and power the chaff cutter. Tom's father Lawrence won many prizes at local shows for champion stock. They were among the first settlers to breed C.orriedale sheep. Tom's young life was rich in many ways. The family made its own fun and in so doing provided entertainment not only for themselves but for relations and friends alike. Tom had a lovely singing voice and often obliged at these gatherings with a song. He loved a game of cards, especially euchre and cnbbage. As the family increase-d it became necessary to enlarge the house and Lawrence and the older boys built the extensions themselves. Sadly Lawrence sustained a heavy fall from a ladder during building operations and although he recovered he was never quite as robust again, From then on Maggie leant heavily on the older boys. Tom worked with his father on the wheat stacks at Colbinabbin. 'Ibe family now ,nmnbered eight - 6 sons and 2 daughters. Each boy had a nickname: Patrick - Dux; Thomas - Croak; Frank - Yak; Michael - Snowy; Stephen - Beaver; Charles-Puddin. Tom's nickname Croak came perhaps from his frequent bouts of tonsillitis. Strangely, the two girls did not have nicknames- or at least ones that were ever recorded. FootbaJl became a great love of Tom's life. All the boys played and were renowned as tough formidable opponents. Tom was Captain & Coach of the Colbinabbin Club for many years. After completion of a new barn Tuohey's became a focal point for social and fundraising activities in the district. Dancing in the barn was the nom1 with Tom as M.C. He was also Secretary for many functions including those associated with the raising of money for the building of the new Comella Church. Euchre was played in the house. At this time still at home Tom assisted his brothers in working the farm and after his father's death on 3rd. April 1926, he continue-d to work on the whe-at stacks, t'VentuaJJy becoming the Officer in Cbarge of the silo -a position he held for more than 40 years. He was also the receiving officer for the Oat Pool and the Barley Board. Page 58 Mick and Steve who by I'IH:.>n wt:re policemen in Melbourne invited Tom and Mona Egan, a granddaughter of the neighbouring Ryans to go to the Policeman's Ball in Melbourne. Tom and Mona won the 'lucky spot' that night and a romance that had started years before was rekindled and resulted in wedding bells some time later with Tom and Mona being married in St. Kili;m's Church on 14th. November 1931. 11H.'Y made their home in Colbinabbin township. where their five children w1..~rc reared. Edward, Mary, C~harles, Eileen and Cktus. Tom had broad acres along the Comella creek, 5 kilometres from the township. He farmed this land mainly grazing sheep, share cropping and in later years breeding Poll Hereford cattle. Tom lived by the standards he had been raised to know were right and lived up to his Christian beliefs. l-Ie was looked up to and respected at Colbinabbin and district for his sound views on local public matters and energy in f01warding movements for the advancement of the district. He was an active member of the Committee for the recreation reserve which was moved to the township and took many years to develop. I lis name is legend in football exploits. I Ie had only an occasional social drink and never ~wore and was much loved by his family. He delighted his grandchildren with wondeii'ul days at the farm and station.

Page 64 lVhen Mum and Dad first married they lived in the old house kJWwn as Iletm.essy~~ on the east side of Mt. Pleasant Creek, just twrth of Toohey's Road. We then shifted to the old place which belonged to the Dales. which was original(v owned by the family of my mother's father. It was very old and possibly built around 1870. It had a long low kitchen with a huge fireplace at one end, and a big gate supporling a big fountain over the fire. 71tis fountain held 10-12 gallons of hot water. Two old bedrooms at the back of the kitchen were made of pinewood and hessian and wallpaper. The entire roof was covered with what we called shingles. Two huge old peppercorn trees grew in the backyard beside an undergrowtd cellar which also had a shingle roof. Also further over two more rooms were built, at a later date: one a bedroom and the other a lounge-room. Not far from the house towards the road was an old bam with the wooden floor level with the ground. And still further over, across the yard was a huge old stable with a roof made of thatched straw and wooden slabs for 1/s.: sides. 'J11is stub/c.~ was about one chain long by a half a chain wide. Inside this stable were horse troughs made out of Jwllow logs, mounJed on solid wooden chocks. At the back of the troughs was aa corrugated iron wall and a door led through this to the cJwff room, where we gathered up the chaff in a bucket and fed it to the horses in the troughs. I can remember the wet winters at this place, and Dad's six draught hotSes would come in and stand around in the cold weather, and make a muddy mess in the yard. My mother J.VaS a very clean woman and this upset her very much. Dad sent me to school at Assumption College, Kilmore in 1943. In 1944 a terrible drought hit the land. Dad bought hay to feed the horses, but still lost come of them in the drought. His horses started to die one by one from eating grass t/Ult was too low to the ground: allowing their stomachs to fill with sand. In. 1945 I came home fi·om sclwol onto the farm, a lad of seventeen years, and I went fruit picking in February 1845. When I came lwme things were fairly destitute on the fann after the drought. Dad battled on, rearing geese and turkeys to survive. His sheep were gone and his horses were dead. At that time there were six children in the family. Dad bouglu a 1nw tractor: a lillie red Jrac/Or on sleei wheels /lull cost J40 powub:. Dad a/...,YJ bought a McKay five-furrow plough, and we could plough eightt~en acres a day with this tractor and plough.

Their three children are - John, Brian and Maureen. ALI~'RED TUOHEY -also continued in the family fanning traditions. He was born on the 2nd. Aup,ust I 2ND. GENI!:RATION: C.IDLD NO.4 of PATRICK & MARY (Conroy) 11JOIU..~. Thomas Patrick Tuohey - born 15th. November 1871 - was the third sutviving child of Patrick and Mary Tuohey. It is believed that he was the first of the family to be born at Mt. Pleasant (later called Myola) where his father had taken up land after working for some years on the Sandhurst (Bendigo) goldfields. According to the C1lllrdl Records at St KiJians, Thomas was baptised on the 19th. November 1871 by Rev. Fr. D. McNab. His Godparents were Michael and Margaret Cunneen. It was interesting to note that in St Ki1ian's Baptismal Register -Entry No 8955, Tuohey was misspe.lt TUE and Omroy entered as CONRY. Thomas would have Jive.d in the original family cottage on the east side of Mt Pleasant Creek which was later replaced by another dwelling on the opposite side of the creek. approximately on the site presently occupied by John Tuohey (grandson of Thomas) and his family in 1988. In this home Thomas and his sisters continued to live after the death of their parents. mOMAS TUOHEY MARRIED EI'IIEL CLARKE ·JANUARY 1915. In January 1915, Thomas married I<:thel Clarke, formerly of Woodend in St Kilians Church, Bendigo, and Thomas and Ethel continued living in the old home, which was later extende.d to accommodate their family of eight children. I MY BELOJIED FATHER - Contributed by Ettie Tuohey (Sr. Mary Emerita.) My father, known as Tom, cherished a groat fm;e and respect fiJr the memory of his own .father, as evinced by the many little stories about him which he used to relat£d to his clrildnm. In the ~novated kitchen with a wooden panel encasing and concealing a rough slt1b which his father had erocted with his own hands in the original cottage and which Tom would not aUow the catpenters to move. Not having married until he was in hi-; middle .forties, Tom MJOS passionately devoted to hi..'i' wife and children. He seemed never to lose the wonder he experienced at being blessed with a family. His love and appreciation of his wife was shown by the gifts he would bring home to her, some of which are still treasured in the family. l-fe engaged in farming pursuit<; and purchased severn/ pieces of land in the distric~ which wero known by the names of their pn,;ious owners. Thero were DickEns's, O'Keefe's, Bibby's, Nicholas's etc. He was never happier than when driving around these properties in the buggy with some of his childron on board. And he loved his horses.

Page 69 Of a generous and affectionate nature, he loved to do good, and many others besides his family wetr.> the recipients of his generosity, while he was noted for his gratitude to anyone who did him a service. Love for his faith was paramount in his life. Attendance at Sunday Mass, of course, went without saying and it !«lS a familiar sif!}lt to see him on his knees, morning and nigh~ at the old sofa in the kitchen. He was a leading parishioner at St Martins Church, Muskeny, and took part in all affairs of the parish. Tom fwd a great love of music. He had a fine voice with which he often lulled his children lo sleep when they were small. He saw to it that his children were given the oppcntunity to learn a musical instrument. He would have been very happy lo know that his three daur)zters made good use of this opportunity, not only by teaching music but also by their contribution lo the music of the liturgy in rnany parishes.

Not Sl7 in this case. The event was a happy one. All associated with it were hap{')~ and they made many otheTS happy also by extending a free it;viwtion to all to spend a social evening with them in the local }ul/1, which, considering the short notice, was well responded to by a jO)OUs happy throng of youth and beauty, where feet kept time to the inspiring mw.-ic of Messrs. Honeychurch and J. Knight till an early hour in the morning. The bride travelled in a pretty navy poplin dress, richly trimmed with lace, and wore a Parisian hat and set of white fox furs, the gift of her sister. ______The Elmore Stand.lrd- Sat.

BRIDGET HEALY (Tuohey)- My Mum- By Kath Harney Mum used to talk quite a lot about her childhood in Myola, and much of what size said corresponded with _lines from ''Arowxd the Borree Log'. She was the eldest gid and specialised in cooking. Julia, the next daughter was an expert laundress ( and there was plenty to be done in that line) and Queen (Mary) was a very clever seamstress, so they were a pretty good team. Kate, the youngest girl was rather delicate, and we didn't hear a lot about her. Mum would talk of the great treat of swapping her healthy sandwiches at school with someone who had treacle mtheir's, and of some very well thought out schemes to sneak out after dark when she grew older, like getting Jule to read the Advocate (a Catlwlic newspaper) to her father (who was illiterate) from cover to cover, to only be greeted with the comment "Wel4I suppose Bidsy is having a great time by now!!' 1hey were obviously a very happy family - great sense of hwnour, and some very funny sayings. Many a time I was caUed a "big omathom'~ when I did something silly, or a "poor little annashaw" if I looked a bit dejected! She created a very happy home for us in spite of being afflicted with rheu.mathoid atthritis, in a wheelchair for as long as I can remember. BRIDGEr HEALY DIED IN 1935.

My mother and father mMed into their new home early in their married life and it was not known until after dad died and mum needed to be nearer her fomily that she left it and came to Mtdbou~. Mum led a vel)' bw.y life and worked hard, for as well as her si.\: children, dad's flllher and her sister Kate also lived with us, but .she coped with it all and never seemed to think anything too much trouble. Our house was always an open house. We lived just near the bridge that crossed the Campa...,pe river, which was the main road into the town for the country folk when they came in to shop, and as we had a WI)' big back yard, they used to leave their horses and buggies there and of course mum would never let them go through without (4 cup of letl and a chat. Naturally our rek4tives ~re p#l"ticulariy welcome to .iWap the family news. Some of the country children who went to .sr:Jwol in Elmore also left their means of transport in our yard, and I remember on wet aftemoons ufter .sr:hool, mum would bring them inside and muke up a batch of hot JXmvake...· for tJll of w-. She often had unexpected tXIras in for a meul and didn't seem ever lo gel ruffled by iJ. It was a home (lway from home for the young priests who came to Elmore as cumtes and I think they looked on mum as a second mother. There were many happy hotu::·; spent with them and our friends either playing cards or singing around the piano with my bmther George at the keyboani. Mum and dad both enjoyed their cards, mostly Crib, or Euchre if we were all joining in. Mum and Dad also taught us the meaning of the word ecumeni.sm, before we had ever heard it mentioned. We lived next duor to the Presbyterian Manse, and Mum and Mrs. Hunt (the minister:\· w4e) were \'ely dose friends. Their family and ours spent mzu.:h time p/tlying I<.J~cthc:1: 'Jky tlLWJ had tJ lot·e~}' mulbt.:ny /lite 1•1hich Wtl.~' tl luq.:a u/Jitlclion H~1 Wtl/'lt cll~·o j14.~·t ciCIP.\:\' Ilk' rouJ from Jhu ( 'hwch of J:'n0 /cmd onJ Mum IVll.\' ailv There was always great excitement in the house when Father Pat Tuohey was expected home on leave from the Philiipirws.

Eventually looking afWr her became too much for mum, and when Father Pat was home on leave he ammged for her to go to live with the Good Shephe1d Sisters at Oakleigh, where she stayed uniil her death. Of cowse we ali missed her. One thing J do remember about her though.

GENERATION: CHILD NO. 7 of PATRICK & MARY (Conroy) TUOHEY. Patrick, the youngest son, and third youngest of eight living children (9 born), was born on the 8th. December 1878, pos~ibly at honw at Mt. Plea~ant/Myola, (as was common practice.) According to the St. Kilian' Church, Sandhurst Record No. 1282'5, Page 490, he was born on the 9th. December and was baptised on 15th. December by Rev. Fr. D. O'C.onnell. His Godparents were John C.omer and Mary McNamara. His early years were spent at his birthplace working along with his parents and other family members on their farm, until 1904. He did not respond to his calling to a religious life until aged 26 years. and from all accounts he t(mnd it a ve1y difficult de.cision to make. He was at brother L1wrence and sister-in-law Maggie's place when the news was broken to his parents. He left the telling of his decision to Maggie Tuohey, while he retreated to the seclusion of the stables. From all accotmts his parents responded to the news with mixed feelings. Perhaps Pat1ick felt that he was deserting his ageing parents. He then continued his seconda1y schooling at St. Patlick's C'--0llege, Ballarat. On completion of his college course, he returned to the land for a time. He was w1able to resist the appeal of the Holy Spirit to leave house and home, relatives and ftiel,lds and all this world holds dear, to follow in the footsteps of our Divine. Saviour. ' He entered the Novitiate of the Redemptorist Order, at Ballarat in 1904 under the veterdn and saintly Fr. Master John Cleary. He was professed on 15th. September 1905, and owing to the delay in getting permission from Rome, his profession was delayed 5 days. A GROUP OF FR. PAT TOUHEY'S PARISHIONERS IN THE PHILLlPINES.-C1920. Page 8'2 REV. FR.

They induded Patrick Tuohey. l)age 83 .· ' Fr. Pat. sailed \Vith the Fr. Provincial K. Bourke by the "Orvicto" on 25th. February, 1912, aniving in Melbourne on 23rd. October, 1912. He then went from Ballarat to New Zealand for eighteen months, and was a great success with both priests and people. On the 14th. April 1914, he was transferred to the Philippines where be spent 8 years. He then retumed to Pe1ih by way of Waratah in early 1922, and spent a busy two years in Western Australia. He then retumed to the Philippines in June 1924, extending this Apostolate to 7 years, and it was upon his return to Ballarat in early 1931 that he commenced the last chapter in his life. He died at 830 am. on the 22nd. of November, 1931, at the St. Jolm of God's Hospital, Ballarat, after a serious illness which caused about three inonths of suffering and rapid deterioration. He was aged 53 ye..a rs: a man in the prime of his life. A Solemn Requiem Mass, concelcbratcd by other Redemptorists, and assisted by the hoys of the Cathedral Choir was in the pre.sence of thirty priests &om Ballarat, Melbourne and Bendigo. His Lordship Bishop Gleeson gave the last absolution. And two of his brothers. a nephew and a brother-in-law stayed in the Monastery overnight, and his two sisters were the guests of Misses Crowley. His confreres described him as a man who could adapt himself to every variety of character from the jovial outgoing person, to the pemickety, wistful individual who was also economical with words. He always wore a winsome smile that he seemed to have picked up from his native Campaspe, and that won him so re-adily into the good grnces of people. His genial nature, his becoming roseate countenance, and his adept way of contacting and managing people, simply won all hearts in the Phillipines as in Australia and elsewhere. He was immensely popular with the Filipino people, and brought back. many gifts for his relatives given to him by these people. Two clam shells painted with scenes were often admired by two Mercy nuns at Castlemaine. At a later time they adorned the Convent parlour. There were sprays of flowers intricately carved and fashioned out of shells. wire and berries. They had adomed his altar. When he was departing, a very large group of his beloved people walked out into the water to farewell him. The ship had to stay out in the deeper waters. One story is related, and has often been retold tltat he almost lost his life when a ferocious native had him pinned down on the ground and was ready to cast his knife or spear, when Fr. Pat. had a brainwave and dropped his denture. The would-be assailant took fright and ran. Another story, is that he and a fellow priest were riding sturdy ponies do\W the side of a mountain, when his companion and his horse disappeared down the steep precipice. Pr. Pat fearing that he \\Ould find his friend and horse both dead at the bottom. was overjoyed to find them both hardly the worse for the experience.

Page 91 CA'I'liERlNE TUOI:IEY (1884 * 1934) 2ND. GENJ~RATION: CIID.. ,D NO. 9 of PATRICK & MARY (Conroy) TUOHEY. Catherine, or Kate as she was affectionately known by all, was the youngest child of Mary (Conroy) and Patrick Tuohey. The Victorian Birth Index No. 16563 lists her hit1hplacc as Elmore in 1884. According to St Kilians Church, Sandhurst she was born on 25th. Ap1il 1884, and was baptised on the 4th. May 1884. She was of a d(\pendent and frail nature. Julia (Tuohey) Wade mentioned that she was burnt in a fire as a young child. Lawrence, her eldest brother was closely involved with her welfare, as were other family members in their various capacities. Kate lived with her sisters in Elmore at one period of time. She was also said to have had some mild form of epilepsy, but tllis has not been fully confiimed. Her early years were spent in a close family unit at Mt. Pleasant, and she was involved with all family activities. As family members married and moved away, and their own family responsibilities increased, Kate may have needed supervision or extra support that they were unable to give her. If she was an epileptic, the currently used treatments and controls were yet to be tested. Usually these people were institutionalised, and their developmental potential was often di,:>advnntnged hy such a move. I was told that Father Pahick Tuohey (during a visit home from the Philippines) was instrumental in her becoming a pennaneut resident at the Good Shepherd C..onveut. In her later years, she resided at the Good Shepherd Convent at Oakleigh (Chadstone) adjacent to the Chadstone (Wel)1field) Shopping· Centre. Relatives can remember visiting her, but more detailed information is not forthcoming. CATilERINE TUOHI~Y DIED 10-2-1934. AGED 50 YEARS. Catherine (Kate) died possibly at the Good Shepherd Convent at Oakleigh aged 50 years. She is buried at Oakleigh Cemetery. Most of the' graves have been removed to other burial sites,. but Kate's tombstone is one of the few remaining in the Oakleigh Cemetery. The cemetery is situated in the central business district behind the Cooocil Chambers and outside of the Oakleigh Football Ground. TI1e inscription on her headstone reads Kathleen Tuohey, not Catherine as state.d on her registration of birth~ Page 92 1977 - lS'J~ TUOHEY REUNION - TOOLLEEN, VICTORIA. 111e first Tuohey reunion was held in 1977 on Sunday October 30th. at Toolleen Football Ground.

Dt~scendants of both Patrick and ·n10mas were well represented on the day. Some had travdk·d from Mildura. Taralg.on, Mdhourne as well tts BcJHJi!~O and surrounding districts. The visitor's hook in the l~ecrcation llall could was not signed by many who aH<.·tH.kd because of the crowding around the v<.~lY interesting matetial that was on di~vlay associated with the district, including schools, families and other historical material. The Tuohey Family 'free, photographs, documents and other Tuohey memorabilia were an integral part of the display, not only for Tuohey descendants but for other relatives and friends in the district. Tuohey descendants were members of the Bi-Centenary organising Conunittee for the Day. They also contributed financially in order to defray some of the costs of the cdchration. Maurice Tuohey very kindly drove husloads of people around Colbinabbin and nearby dist riels to all of the places of interest t~ssociatcd with the &u.me Tuoh<.·y.

Jack married Ann-Jane Carmody, and they had 3 daughters, Ann (Doll), Maree, who died as an infant, and Margaret (Mag). Doll and Mag lived in their grand-father's home at Myola until quite recent years, when they movt:J into 1:.Imore. Both Doll and Mag, and Mag's huslnmd Jack Tobill ar<..~ dl:"c\.•ast.•d.

He was the youngest son of John Toohey and the brother of Michael and Laurence Toohey of CanK·ron, County Tipperary according to family researcher Patrick G Tuohey. Laurence (son of Patrick) and Margaret Tuohey spent their honeymoon in 18()7 with I he Bw1garcc Toohcys. Joseph Toohey was married to Margaret Gleeson and according to the Victorian Hirth Death & Maniage Index they had six daughters rl11e BaHa rat( B uugaree) Tuohcys designed and built a potato digger ·in very early times. and the dcsccnch1nts of Thomas and Patrick had strong affiliations with them. OTHER TUOHEYS/TUOHYS/TOOHEYS. In rhe early c:hurch Records at St Kilian's, Sandhurst, other Tuohys (sic) were witnesses at weddings, or godparents to some of our family members. There were UU'ee J>atrick Tuohys and three Mary Conroys in the district. Two of the Patrick Tuohys were on the Sandhurst goldfields prior to the arrival of our kinfolk in C1859. 'l11ey were all from County Galway. It is highly likely that any of them could have been either closely or even distantly related, through Thomas & Patrick or even through their mothers-in-law who were both fonnerly Tonhy{I'oohey (sic). 111e first Patrick Tuohey (son of William & Ann (O'Brien) Tuohey married Ellen Hennessy 20-5-1856.
