  • 19 May 1954, Berwick Mourns Mrs. L. D. Beaumont—A Wonderful Citizen Who Came From Pioneering Stock.
    LAST FRIDAY, with the death of Mrs Beaumont, wife of ex-Cr. L. D. Beaumont, a past president of the Berwick Shire, Berwick lost one of its oldest locally born residents, and a grand lady who played a leading part in the community throughout an active life.
    A younger daughter of the late Hon James Buchanan M.L.C., and Mrs. Buchanan (nee Wilson), her parents were two of the districts earliest pioneers, of the years 1849 and 1837 respectively. Her father represented the South-Eastern Province in the Legislative Council for a period of 27 years. He was a founder of the Berwick and District Agricultural Society and initially made available his grounds, which the society still occupy. At his death he left his home “Burr Hill” as a Manse to the Presbyterian Church. The home was later sold and the proceeds devoted to the building of the new Manse in the church grounds, Mrs. Beaumont being given the honor of performing the opening ceremony. During his Parliamentary career the late Hon James Buchanan, in the year 1889, took his daughter for a tour of the South Sea Islands on the Union Steam Ships Co’s vessel, "S.S. Fijian.” It was there that the then Miss Ellie Buchanan met her future husband, Mr. L. D. Beaumont, he being the Purser, on the ship. On this voyage the “Fijian” became a total wreck on the Island of Tanna, in the New Hebrides Groups, an island peopled by a very cannibalistic tribe of natives. Both passengers and crew spent a most perilous time on the Island before being rescued by a passing ship and returned to Sydney.
    During a life-time of 84 years associated with Berwick Mrs. Beaumont was a foremost figure in matters pertaining to the welfare of the district. A strong supporter of her Church for many years, both before and after her marriage she occupied the position of Organist in St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, Berwick. A constant exhibitor at both Agricultural and Horticultural district shows she took many awards, but in later years as a Rosarian she was particularly interested in rose culture.
    A great lover of horses, Mrs. Beaumont, even up to her 80th year, was a familiar figure about the district on her horse, “Garry.” A foundation and long service member of the Berwick Red Cross, she served her age and generation well. She leaves her husband, Mr. L. D. Beaumont, daughter Mrs. S. A. Greaves, son Mr. Norman E. Beaumont J.P. and two grandchildren, Louise and Sonia Beaumont, to survive her.
    The largely attended funeral was very representative of the district. The Rev Scott Tanner of Berwick and Rev. J. Scott of Drouin conducted the funeral service. The Pall Bearers were Cr. C. Greaves, Mr. Evan Henry, Mr. Hugh Bourke, Mr. George Wilson, Cr. Arthur Robinson, Mr. J. M. Bell, Mr. J. S. Loveridge Mr. John Lloyd.
    Garnar and Son Pty Ltd were the Funeral Directors.13
