The photo was provided to me by Olive Nash, nee Simmons, daughter of Tullamarine's postmistress in the latter 1920's. Harry Nash's parents were probably wondering why he was so keen to check for mail at the post office so regularly. Unlike the photos that Olive provided for WHERE BIG BIRDS SOAR in 1989, which were photocopied, this photo, included in EARLY LANDOWNERS:PARISH OF TULLAMARINE (CIRCA 2000) was scanned.

Like Mary Nash, nee Gage, who married Charles Nash Snr. two years after he purchased the land on J.C.Riddell's Camieston Estate which became Fairview in 1852, Olive was doomed to a long widowhood. She was eventually forced to leave the farm by the noise and dust when the Bayview Quarry across Nash's lane opened. This quarry later became the Cleanaway Waste Treatment facility at Melway 5 D-F 5,6.

From my EARLY LANDOWNERS: PARISH OF TULLAMARINE.
BLOCK A.
Riddell called his land the Cameiston Estate. The land between Victoria and Wright Sts was called Block A and was purchased in 5 acre lots by Charles Nash (about 77 acres plus about 20 acres near the creek), George Goodwin (about 40 acres), James and John Anderson (27 acres) and Thomas Purvis (13 ½ acres). Charles Nash called his farm Fairview. On 29-4-1859, Nash sold about 20 acres east of his homestead and fronting Riddell St to fellow Wesleyan, Wallis Wright, who established Sunnyside.
Charles Nash called his farm Fairview and the family lived here for over a century until after Harry Nash’s death, when Harry’s widow, Olive, could no longer stand the dust caused by the nearby Bayview Quarry. Charles also established Bayview on section 3 and had a block near the Mansfields Rd corner for spelling dry cows. Descendants of Charles and Mary (nee Gage) occupied land on Sharps Rd and Fosters Rd as well. (See Doutta Galla volume.)

The Fairview homestead is labelled 40 in the photo attached to my journal about the field day at Tullamarine in 1935, which includes more detail about the Nash family. Wallis Wright's "Sunnyside" homestead is labelled 41.
