The Discovery and Growth of Greater Wollongong
lllawarra Historical Society Inc. November 102 THE STORY OF PUCK.EY'S ESTATE In 1953 the City of Greater Wollongong council resumed for a public park the land described below. (See N.S. W. Govt. Gazette 2 April 1953 for a more detailed description). The conveyance from the Union Trustee Co. of Australia Ltd., executor of the will of Courtenay Puckey (died 27 Sept. 1944) to the City of G.W. Council is dated 24 Feb. 1955. (1) 40 acres 2 roods, part of 200 acres (Portion 103, Parish of Woonona) originally granted to William Wilson 6 June 1836. It was leased by C. Puckey from Frank: Osborne in 1905, and purchased by him in 1909. (2) 9 acres 1 rood 1 perch, part of 200 acres (Portion 9, Parish of Wollongong) originally granted to Robert Anderson 15 Aug. 1834, and purchased by C. Puckey from Edward Collaery in 1903. (Conveyance 6 April 1904 gives area of land as 3 acres 2 roods 18 perches, but boundaries appear to be the same as those given for (2) in the Govt Gazette 2 April 1953. Possibly, the land was never properly surveyed before.) The above informatiftn is from deeds etc. in Council's possession. (File C/E/14) (This is the first item in a series on both the Puckey's Estate, Mr. Puckey and his children. If readers have any information or anecdotes, please forward them to the editor. We aim to include everything available on "Puckey's in forthcoming Bulletins") The Discovery and Growth or Greater Wollongong (continued from last Bulletin) PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS The City of Greater Wollongong is probably more fortunate than most cities in the amount of park space provided.
