Hi, my name is Kel (Kelvin) Turner. I am originally from Brookton WA. I am writing as I knew Arthur Charles Ingram personally. He was the grandfather that I never had. The reason I am writing is I have many of his and the families personal items. Such as his war medals, his fathers medals, his mothers midwifery papers just to mention a few. If I can be of any help please do not hesitate to ask. Arthur always said all his family where deceased. So hence the reason I have much of his personal effects.

Hi Carolyn, I am only 49 and live in New South Wales. I have just returned from WA following my fathers passing. I never new Arthur's mother or MR Rowan. My father and Arthur where mates for years. My father organized his funeral. Arthur lived with us for a time. In his later years He stayed quite often. He always called me Ned after Ned Kelly. When He passed he left all his belongings to my Dad and my self. I still have his 1950 morris truck that he used to carry goods to his store at Kweda. I could write a book on him as he was always part of our family from the day I was born. We looked after him in latter years. He died from a cancer in his throat. He was a gifted Man in almost anything he did.His carpentry skills where second to none. He did have a temper though, you kept away if that ever surfaced. Lol. As a child he taught me so much. He left his mark on me which will be there until I die. I have many of his war trophies that he gave me before his death. My email is (*) I am more than happy to assist you in any way. Please tell me how you are related. Best Regards Kel Turner
