Settled on prospective farmland in Perenjori in 1910 and were among the first settlers and pioneers of Perenjori ^{[120: 7-Feb-1929]}
Farmers in Perenjori 1911-1949 ^{[6] [19] [152]}
     Between them they took up 4,240 acres, half of which was forest, in five blocks which cost on average about 11/- per acre ^[152]
     They settled with very little experience of farming between them, with one of them a carpenter and another a shop assistant ^[152]
     Initially the nearest railway siding was at Carnamah and their postal address was Carnamah until 1914 ^[6]
     They settled in Perenjori with £900 capital and by 1916 had borrowed a further £840 from the Agricultural Bank ^[152]
     Also received assistance from the Industries Assistance Board (I.A.B.) to buy stores and in 1916 owed them about £250 ^[152]
     The I.A.B. took over their accounts of about £400 in 1916, which included £140 they owed their sister ^[152]
     By 1916 they had cleared 1,000 acres of their property, had scrub rolled a further 200 acres and had fenced in 1,000 acres ^[152]
     They had a good well of stock water in 1916, ten working horses, four other horses and almost all necessary implements ^[152]
     In 1916 they grew 700 acres of crop expected to average 12 bushels an acre, 140 acres of which they would cut for hay ^[152]

     They thought they needed their crop to average 12 bushels to pay all their usual expenses and their wages ^[152]
     He added that 12 wouldn't really pay as they'd gone backwards over the previous four years with an eight bushel average ^[152]
     He had no doubt that the bulk handling of wheat would reduce their expenses and that there was too much tax on implements ^[152]
     He said "all the time we have been battling" and suggested that land rents be delayed for the first few years on new land ^[152]
