TORWOOD HISTORY The bricks for “Torwood “were dug and hand made on the property from a big hole inside the front gate. The doors and window sashes, everything was made by hand. They kept a cow and fowls for their own use. Gma made her own bread and everything for us, pickled meat, and homemade butter. There were no fridges or ice chests in those days. That is where I learned to do my house keeping. Gma was marvellous. Gpa, a tyrant to us kids. They had a lot of us to put up with especially in the holidays. I never remember Gpa working in my life time. Gma made what they had in the shop. Aunt Ann was book keeper. Plenty of credit given in those days. Mother used to do dress making and millinery. Aunts Em and Min did the housework between them. I don’t know what Aunt Amy and Edie did? Back to History The baskets were carried from Croydon to the top of the Mount. I don’t think they had horse and cart in those early days at Torwood, before my time. My memories are of Torwood, there was always a horse (named Tom) and cart to go to Croydon every Saturday to collect a parcel that Mother sent from Richmond, (12 midday train) with the week’s supply of meat and groceries. After the horse named Tom one called “Bravo”. He was a wicked beast. He used to try and kick Gpa when he was harnessing him. Once he chased GMA and I out of the paddock with his mouth wide open and his great teeth showing. We just got out of the paddock and the gate shut when his head came over the top We both had terrible frights. If I remember rightly Uncle Theo bought him cheap. Talking of Derricks, Stella is 78 still in Private Hosp with no mind of her own. Margaret’s second daughter is doing her 4th year medicine (c1970) Mary Elizabeth Beth Constable Dear Nancy I had these bits of letters copied a long time ago. Margaret’s daughter married a Dr Wesley Jama (Chinese) and their daughter Sarah is now also a Dr at RCH (or was) The parents practice at Berwick. Margaret lives at Harkaway. She’s a marvel, still looks after her cattle at Macclesfield at 86. Jean (Constable) Bryant. Note 1..John Barnes was a builder and made the windows for the Alfred hospital. Mary and John had left their Daughter, Mary Carr in charge of the shop in .?? Richmond........ It sold fine linen and lace hats dresses and tailored outfits. Mary Carr’s daughter Beth who wrote the story above, became a tailorless and her house was neat like the back of the needlework, extra clean and tidy. Beth had 2 children. Jean Bryant and son Ken who became a technician Further notes. In those days, it was not unusual for ladies not to work out side their family home. If they were not wealthy they would house keep or help in somebody else’s home. Edie, who lived in Kew, had a sweet shop and manufactured confection. This trade was passed on to her daughter Kit (who for a time in Healesville) made confectionery for sale). And even to me, great grand daughter of Edi (Edith Elizabeth), knows some of the tricks of the confectionery trade. 2 lbs of sugar 2 pints of water Enough cream’o’tartar to cover a sixpence Boil for 2 hours at 210 degrees F (use a confection thermometer), when the liquid will be clear. While it is cooking do stir or move. Keep cooking and testing until you see the toffee set. For butter scotch, stir in butter Pour out on a tray and you should have clear toffee. As it is cooling-still warm you can roll it into slim sausages and cut this way and that way, (hum bug style) or just break into pieces. I’m not sure how it was done but they could make black and white striped humbugs. Old favourites such as rocky road and swirled lolly pops on sticks |
