Two more obituaries: CRAUSE An old identity of Gosford died in Dec 1899 at his home in St Peters Sydney - Henry Augustus CRAUSE, aged 82. Described as the son of Colonel Crause "commander of one of her Majesty's regiments [Queen Victoria]. Left a large family. Was recalled as having had some farming experience, and had been a timber merchant, publican, postmaster and shipbuilder. Remembered as a hotel-keeper in Gosford. In compliance with a long-expressed wish, deceased was interred in the old cemetery at Point Frederick Gsoford "where rest the remains of his wife and other relatives gone before". Rev Alfred Glennie in his Journals, spelt the name "Crawse" and that may be how it was pronounced. Members of the CC Family History Society who went on a walk recently around Bradys Gully Cemetery (now a park) in Henry Parry Drive, North Gosford, and to Pioneer Park at Point Frederick, will recall seeing the cluster of Crause headstones at the latter resting place.
