Arthur Carisford Cooper

[regis1952]

Hello
I am trying to find information on Arthur Carisford Cooper who spent time in Menzies around the 1899-1904. He married a Caroline D'Arbou at some stage. I have no idea where to start this search. He seems to have just disappeared after about 1904.
Any ideas please.
Thanks

Arthur had an interest in boxing....rather a rambling article with long sentences   Mentions Arthur visiting Sydney.

Writing of Coolgardie reminds me of my old friend Arthur Carisford Cooper, who, a good many years ago was mine host of the long departed Gaiety Hotel, which stood in Castlereagh-street, next to the ancient Gaiety Theatre, afterwards the dreadful Gaiety Athletic “Club” which has given place to the magnificent Guild Hall of the Hibernian Society, was the town clerk of Coolgardie for a number of years.  I wonder if he is still there …….
