21.01.2022 FRASER COAST REGIONAL COUNCIL MEDIA RELEASE 9 November 2020 Walking tours resume and local attractions open for longer Free guided walking tours of Maryborough resume today for the first time since March while local tourist attractions the Bond Store and Story Bank are now open seven days a week again. Fraser Coast Mayor George Seymour encouraged local residents and visitors to sign up for a free guided walking tour to discover more about Maryborough’s fascinating and colou...rful past. Maryborough was first settled in 1847 and is one of Queensland’s oldest cities. Many of Australia’s free settlers entered through the Port of Maryborough between 1859 and 1901, he said. Maryborough captures this history in its beautifully restored buildings and streetscapes. The guided walking tour is a way of discovering the city’s unique character and historic sites over the course of an hour to an hour and a half. Cr Seymour said it was part of Council’s COVID Safe plans to progressively reopen attractions like the Bond Store and Story Bank seven days a week as restrictions eased and demand increased. We are able to open for longer as we are welcoming back more of our wonderful volunteers who help us deliver a fantastic visitor experience in Maryborough’s magic Portside Precinct, he said. The Bond Store and the privately operated Maryborough Military and Colonial Museum allow visitors to step back in time and learn about our military and portside history, while the Story Bank showcases Maryborough’s unique link to Mary Poppins and the magic of storytelling. I encourage both residents and visitors to check out everything that is on offer at the Portside Precinct it really is a special place. The free guided walking tours resume today and are held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays departing from Maryborough City Hall at 9am. Numbers are limited to six people per tour with visitors encouraged to wear enclosed shoes and comfortable clothing, and to bring a water bottle, sunscreen and a sun smart hat. Bookings are essential via the Maryborough Visitor Information Centre at City Hall on 1800 214 789. More details about Maryborough’s Portside Precinct is available at www.ourfrasercoast.com.au Anyone seeking more information and the latest advice about the coronavirus is encouraged to visit www.australia.gov.au and www.covid19.qld.gov.au/ See more

Chapman was the first man to step ashore at the Gallipoli landing on 25 April 1915. A statue of Chapman was unveiled in his home town of Maryborough, Queensland to commemorate the centenary of the Gallipoli landing. Early life Duncan Chapman was born on 5 May 1888 in Maryborough, Queensland, ...the son of Robert and Eugenie Chapman. His mother died when he was young. Chapman attended Maryborough Grammar School.

Military career Prior to World War I, Chapman had served for six months with the Wide Bay Regiment, six months with the Kennedy Regiment. and three years with the 7th Infantry where he held the rank of lieutenant. He was assigned to the 9th Battalion and embarked from Brisbane in September 1914 aboard troop transport ship SS Omrah. He was later transferred to the 45th Battalion.

11.01.2022 It was a pleasure to meet Lillian Coyne at the Tiaro RSL sub-branch this morning to present her with a special medallion and certificate to honour her service i...n World War II and mark the 75th anniversary of the ending of the Second World War. Lillian is a spritely 94-year-old and is the only remaining World War II veteran in the Tiaro Sub-branch and is the Tiaro RSL Patron. Lillian served in the Women's Royal Australian Navy as a writer, or in other words as a clerk, mostly as a member of HMAS Moreton. Lillian has spent almost her entire life as a resident of Bauple, and for a great many years was a volunteer at the Bauple Museum. Her knowledge of the history of the Bauple district is immense, in fact I’m told Lillian is something of a walking, talking Bauple encyclopedia. She has a great sense of humour and mateship. An example of that sense of mateship was revealed recently when an old WW2 shipmate became seriously ill and was not expected to live. The Sub-branch arranged a driver and she went to Brisbane in the RSL vehicle to share a few hours with a fellow veteran she knew she'd never see again. That's the sort of mate anyone would be proud of. So well regarded is Lillian in Bauple, that on her 94th birthday, a sizeable number of the locals staged a drive-past her home in decorated vehicles, while Lillian, dressed in similar fashion to the late Queen Mother, took the "salute". Lillian has been, and remains, a true gem, and Tiaro RSL Sub-branch is rightly proud to have her as a member and their patron. Also today, Donald Jones and Tony Pope were presented with special certificates acknowledging their 30 years of continuous membership and dedicated service to RSL Queensland. Lillian has also received a certificate acknowledging her 30 years of continuous membership and dedicated service to RSL Queensland. That’s 90 years of combined service to veterans and the community, a valuable and worthwhile achievement to be honoured.
