601 This death record is believed to be that of the correct Anthony Vahey. We know from family stories (Una Hill) that Anthony moved to Manchester, and the stories also say that he died during the War. The age on the death certificate corresponds to Anthony's date of birth, and the informant is John Vahey, son -- and Anthony had a son John. Vahey, Anthony (I12)

THE POST OFFICE
The shop now known as Stoborough Post Office or Gays Stores has a history going back at least to 1841, when Thomas Hatchard was the baker on the site.

Thomas Crumpler, great uncle of Ted Crumpler our present Parish Councillor, was the baker in the 1861 census. He was a young man of 29 years living on the premises with his parents (Daniel, a yeoman farmer and wife Sarah) and one of his brothers John, a carpenter. Thomas continued in the trade and appears in the 1891 census being helped by his sons, Thomas aged 24 years and George 22 years old.

In the Crumpler's day, the bakery was on the right of the present shop. The oven, fired by furze faggots, could bake 200 large loaves at a time. The faggots were lit in the oven and left to heat it while the dough was prepared. The hot ashes were then raked out and the oven wiped over; the loaves were placed inside and the door sealed on the outside with the hot ashes.

Baking continued for 6 days of the week and on the 7th the local people brought their dinners to be roasted for a penny. This kept the oven warm and saved time Monday morning in reheating, it also gave the cottagers a good Sunday roast as few had ovens of their own at home.

Collecting the furze from the surrounding heathland was a full time job for a man and his cart. The delivery round employed four carts, serving the Wareham area and all the villages around and out as far as Tyneham and Warbarrow.

Thomas Crumpler died in 1909. His daughter, Elizabeth, married to Sydney Gay, bought the goodwill of the shop from her late father's estate for £30. Elizabeth continued to run the shop until she was in her 80's when she sold to the present owner Mrs Jean Jones and her late sister Mrs May Bright.

The small shop and adjoining house was demolished at this stage and the present shop built. Mrs Jones remembers sweeping the earth floors in the cottage. The bake house (built by Sydney Gay) and much older stable block are still standing. Many older residents of the village will remember Mr William (Jim) Tubb (Mrs Jones' brother) and Mr Roy Bright (her brother in law) delivering groceries to customers in the village.

The post office was originally at 31 Corfe Road (4 doors north of the shop); it was also a shop and bakery. The baker and grocer in 1871 were Joseph Head and his wife Lavinia. It was still in the same family in 1964 when the then owner Ernest Head sold the business to William Jones (late husband of Mrs Jean Jones). Mr Jones operated the post office from 31 Corfe Road for a year and then closed the shop and transferred the post office to its present site.

All the staff in the present shop have had long serving records; Merle Henstridge stayed 31 years before retiring, Julie Warne 39 years with time out for 3 children, Pauline Marshallsay has spent 29 years in the post office and Jean Stockley has 18 years in post after working in Cullens in West Street.

The picture of the shop is difficult to date but was obviously taken before the installation of telegraph/electric cables in 1936.

We are most grateful for this interesting piece of history contributed by the late Percy Crumpler and the present proprietors, particularly Kathy Jones.

620 William Hunt was one of eight children born to Robert and Margaret Shepherd. He was christened at Worth Matravers Dorsetshire, England on the 29th September, 1811.

He met Eliza Stickland (bapt on the 23rd July, 1820 Kimmeridge in Dorsetshire England dtr. of Henry Stickland bp: 22nd April, 1792 in Steeple Dorset and Mary (nee Crumpler) bp 14th February, 1796 Turners Puddle Dorset). Henry married Eliza on the 5th April, 1838 in the Parish Church of Steeple Dorsetshire in England.

On the marriage certificate there is a Robert Hunt stated as being the father of William Hunt and his occupation being a labourer. William Hunts occupation is also stated as being a labourer.

William Hunt arrived at the Swan River Colony in Western Australian on the "City of Bristol" 8th August, 1857 with his wife Eliza Stickland and 7 of there 9 surviving children. The two eldest had died as infants and were buried in Worth Matravers, Dorset, England.

All the children of William and Eliza were born in Worth Matravers Dorsetshire in England except for daughter Eliza who was born at sea on there way to the Swan River Colony in 1857 . There youngest child Robert Henry Hunt was born in Western Australia.

William Hunt was a labourer, and the first yeoman to purchase land at Greenough flats. Champion Bay district in 1861 - 26 acres & 100 acres in 1866 - Greenough. William Hunt by 1862 had several tillage leases and pastoral leases around Greenough. William's son in law George Booth had joined him in his leases. They were not producing much wheat, but in 1864 and 1866 the crops flourished as they were continually at Malley's Mill. Constant reference is made to "Hunt's Team" bringing or taking produce from the Mill.

Mark Fripp also an exconvict was a Teamster and had married William Hunt's first daughter. This all suggests that William Hunt was the Squire, with George Booth a Farmer and Mark Fripp the Teamster.

There was no fertilisers available. Every drop from the animals would have been prudently used, but because they had to continually crop their 100 acre tillage leases each year, the rich soil was only tilled a few inches the first year, then deeper the next and so on over the years until the fertility was depleted.

One of the problems experienced by the farmers because of the size of the block was that after continual cropping, which they would have hd to do to exist, the corp yields would drop off to non economical proportions. To this day, even twith modern fertiliser, the land is experiencing similar characteristics. The heavy soil of the land also is difficult to farm with modern equipment becuae when it becomes wet the rotating wheels of motor vehicles collects the clay and layer after layer of clay build up on the tyres until they can no longer rotate properly.

On the 28th September 1866, William Hunt and George Booth applied for a tillage lease on Lot 211 of 100 acres at Yardarino. It was forfeited by non payment of monies owed on 25th May 1868. William and son in law George farmed an area of about 500 acres in this area south of Yardarino Reserve, a rich fertile area called by the Aborigines "Moola-Moolatha". The area was a mixture of open flats and York Gum Forest. William Hunt was the first Yeoman to tak up land in this area and it was named after him. To this day it still bears his name, Hunts Flat, Hunts Farm Road.

A large pile of lime stone marks the site of William Hunt's farm house and it would have been a regular stopping place for people travelling along the road to Perth. The well on the north side of Hunt's house was fed by a spring of crystal clear beautiful water and would have been a welcome resting place for many a thirsty traveller.

A huge river gum tree grows beside the site of William Hunt's house, being solitary and far distant from others suggests that it was planted there to shelter the house from the hot summer afternoon sun.

The sits of Hunt's farm house in on a very slight rise which afforded him views across his cleared land to the south and on to George Booth's adjacent farm. To the west of their farms about 1.5kms distance are some low hills laced with limestone ridges, from these ridges they carted the stone to build their houses.
The first telegraph line to Perth crossed east to west just south of Hunts house.
George took up his final tillage lease No. 5010 (later changed to No. 1246) of 120 acres, this was just south of lease No. 4412 and had a common boundary with leases of his father in law. The whole area was on what was then the main road to Perth, a road whose direction was basically controlled by available water sources as water was so essential for the weary traveller be it on foot or by horse or cart. The road to Perth ran south through Hunt's Flat then south west to Arrowsmith, south through the Lakes of Eneabba and onto the established farms at Walebing.

William Hunt (a farmer) died on the 16th July 1883 at the age of 72 of natural causes and was buried at Greenough Cemetery Western Australia.

Eliza Hunt possibly went to live with one of her children until she was possibly put into a home where she died on the 10th February, 1904 of Senile Decay in Tower St Leederville Perth Western Australia aged 84. She was buried at Karrakatta Cemetery Perth on the 11th February, 1904 in the Salvation Army Section AA Plot 47.
