Charles came to Australia contracted to stay for five years. Annie decided to go back to England in about 1893, and left her husband in Melbourne to finish his contract, she stayed for about 6 weeks and didn't like it, so she came straight back. She loved Australia all her life and according to all her family, including my mother Grace Maud she was a really lovely lady. It was Annie Atterton who brought my mother Grace to Australia and cared for her as if she was her own child.
