Late Mr. Edward Andrews.
The funeral took place at Devonport yesterday of the late Mr. Edward Andrews, whose death, at the ripe age of
85 years, occurred on Sunday.
Rev. H. A. Leicester officiated at the graveside, the chief mourners being Mr. Norman Andrews (son)
and other relatives. The carriers were Messrs. J. Andrews, J. Morgan, R. O. Douglas and G. H. Hey.
With the exception of Mr. W. Sloane, of East Devonport, the late Mr. Andrews was the oldest resident
of the district. With his parents he came to Tasmania in the ship Beulah in 1851,
and four weeks later, at the age of six, he went to Torquay, his father being the first baker there.
At the time of his death the late Mr. Andrews had been a resident of the Mersey district for 80 years.
During the greater part of his life he followed a seafaring career, but his voyages away were brief,
and his home was always at Devonport.
The late Mr. Andrews was a very keen draughts player, holding the championship of the town for
many years. He also displayed a great interest in yachting and rowing, and was one of the earliest
members of the Devonport Regatta Association. It was his proud boast that, for over 60 years,
members and descendants of the Andrews family took part in aquatic events on the Mersey.
His wife predeceased him 20 years ago.
He is survived by two sons, Messrs. Norman Andrews, of Bridport, and Ernest, of Melbourne.
