PERSONAL HISTORY OF RON LAWSON ....

PERSONAL HISTORY OF RON LAWSON ....

_________________________________

1) For several years from 19591 onwards a group of us was invited to a much-appreciated meal at the home of Mrs. Anderson on St. Lucia Rd. Those in this photo suggest it was taken about 1961 or 1962. Left to right they are: Charles Hammond, Ian Clarkson, Mrs. Gertrude Cyrenia Anderson, Ron Lawson, Jeannie MacDougal, Malcolm Johnston, Fred Mazzaferri, Jack Holliday.

2) In 1964, in our third year of operation, QUSDAS hosted a national convention of all Australian university societies. This is a photo of the QUSDAS members who were present on the day that it was taken. (I need some help from others to restore memories of a few names.) Far too many are hidden, which is sad.

Left to right: Percy Harrold, Greg Mann (behind), Pastor Winston Dowling (Conference youth leader), Bob Brinsmead, Grenville Twist (behind), Darryl Kum Yuen, name?, Chip Hedges (front), Charles Hammond, name? (is it Margaret, who was later to marry Peter Hammond?), Austin Grillmeier (front), Bernice Underwood (behind), Kathy Ransome, Yvonne Jones (behind), Ron Lawson (further behind), name?, name? (partially obscured), Marj. Mee Lee, Jan Brinsmead.

Via an e-mail from Bernice Underwood: 'I've looked once more at the group photo that Ron sent, and I'm sure that the person that Ron has identified as Grenville Twist is, in fact his brother, Owen.

3) Me with a fairly new beard, which I have kept ever since, in 1968 or 1969.
I look forward to seeing what else goes up, and especially to the reunion.
