General Notes:
Excerpts from John Duncan of Australia's "...Bairns" :
"....compiler (John Duncan) is again indebted to their (James Henry Haines and Florence McColl ) daughter Jean, now Mrs. Gribben.
" Flo joined the [Victorian State] public service after high school but didn't like work conditions, finishing work given [early] that was supposed to last all day.
After that she became a typist and office secretary to Churches of Christ, Conference Executive and after 20 years was appointed assistant conference secretary and some years later-Conference Secretary.
She was honoured to receive Queen's Coronation Medal in 1953 [Queen Elizabeth], for her service to God and the brotherhood. She retired after 38 years service."
