25.01.2022 Absolutely beautiful

21.01.2022 Cover Page --- Dr Charles Laver's Bronze Statue Laverton Laver was born in Castlemaine in Victoria in 1863. The son of a very successful convict, he mo...ved to Western Australia, worked in the Kimberley and, in 1884, developed a passion for gold when he was given a nugget. He returned to Melbourne, got his degree and became a medical doctor and then travelled overseas where he gained postgraduate qualifications at the University of Edinburgh. He returned to Western Australia and was working as a doctor at Coolgardie when he met Tom Potts, George McOrmish and Harry Dennis who had discovered gold at a mining site (modern day Laverton) they called British Flag. Laver was so curious and enthused that he cycled (literally pedalled) from Coolgardie to Laverton, found 600 ounces of gold and brought it back to Coolgardie by bicycle. He promised Potts, McOrmish and Dennis that he would travel to Britain and find investors. It was as a result of these efforts that, in 1900, when the town was gazetted, that his friend John Forrest, the Premier of Western Australia, and the people of Laverton, agreed that the town should be named after him. Apart from working tirelessly to promote Laverton he remained a hard working doctor travelling throughout the area on his trusty bicycle. See more
