Born June 20th, 1904 to William David & Ann Jones, William was the fourth of eight children. Though not much is known about "Reg", it is common belief that he had a love of Boxing, gaining much of a reputation himself as a Street Boxer. Reg also spent much, if not all, of his life in or around Maitland (The Hub of the Hunter Valley, NSW) which also just happens to be the home of the late great Les Darcy - of whom, he was a big fan.

Born September 14th, 1904 to Herbert & Gertrude Lethbridge, Anna was the second of twelve children. Nicknamed "Dolly" by her father because as a baby she was so tiny, she fit into the palm of his hand.
Anna met her husband while working as a housekeeper for William's parents. They married in February 1926 and gave birth to the first of ten children just one month later.
She endured many hardships and tragedies in her life including the accidental death of Frederick, her two year-old son. Anna lived her entire life in and around Maitland, NSW. Dying November 21st, 1990 aged 86, she out-lived her husband and all but four of her children.
