MINING ON PRIVATE PROPERTY.
COWRA, TUESDAY.
A large and representative public meeting was held in the council-chambers here last night, to consider what steps should be taken with the view of urging the desirability for fresh legislation regarding the recently rejected Mining on Private Property Bill. The following resolutions were passed -1. "That in the opinion of this meeting the advancement and prosperity of the great mining industry, and of the colony generallv, hinges upon speedy provision being made in our laws to legalise mining upon all alienated lands of the colony upon fair and reasonable conditions to the holders of the surface rights and the miners alike, and wholly independent of the terms upon which such lande were originally granted." 2." That a petition embodying the foregoing resolution be presented to the Legislative Assembly of this colony through the members for the district." 3. "That a league be now formed for the purpose of extending operations throughout the district." Mr Donnelly, the local member, was present, and spoke on the Mining Bill and the mining industry generally. The proceedings were very enthusiastic throughout. Alderman Mawby occupied the chair.

MAWBYs IN VICTORIA
The state government of Victoria (Vic) does NOT have a free online historical family history search index. They charge 99 cents to view a page of records, and will only accept payment by credit card.
Not having a credit card, all I have been able to ascertain is that under all BDM categories, there are 66 records under MAWBEY and 160 under MAWBY.
There was a large family of MAWBYs at Daylesford in Victoria, a member of which was CHRISTOPHER WOODWARD MAWBY.
NEW INSOLVENTS.
Christopher Mawby, 319 Bay Street, Port Melbourne, late wood and coal merchant, now out of business. Cause of insolvency - Sickness and death of wife, and heavy expenses attendant thereon. Liabilities, £83/7/5; assets, £5, deficiency, £77/7. Mr. E. H. Shackell, assignee. George Lane, Castlemaine, coachbuilder. Filed at Castlemaine.

DEATHS.
MAWBY. - On the 1st October, at her late residence, 319 Bay-street, Port Melbourne, Elizabeth Ann, the late dearly beloved wife of Christopher Mawby, hay and corn merchant, aged 37 years. So loved, so mourned.

MAWBY WAR SERVICE
While researching the World War I service records of the MAWBEY family, I discovered there was a larger group with the spelling variant, MAWBY.

1. JOSEPH MAWBY from Trowbridge, Wiltshire, England; rank - landsman, HMS Britannia; killed in action 1805.
2. JOHN MAWBY from Portsmouth, Hampshire, England; rank - midshipman, HMS Spartiate.
3. RICHARD MAWBY from Wadford, Northamptonshire, England; rank - corporal, HMS Britannia.

MAWBY's in WESTERN AUSTRALIA
The state of Western Australia (WA) has a FREE online historical BDM index. THANK YOU STATE GOVERNMENT of WA! Elderly family historians struggling to survive on pensions very much appreciate your generosity in making this available.
The WA historical family history records range from:
births 1841-1932;
marriages 1841-1936;
deaths 1841-1964
That branch of the family spelt MAWBY predominates over MAWBEY in Western Australia. There is only one entry for MAWBEY in the WA index of births, deaths and marriages and this was for a marriage betweeen WILLIAM MAWBEY and EMMA THOMAS at Boulder in 1910.
There were five marriages recorded under the spelling variant MAWBY and these all occurred between 1921 and 1936 which is beyond the scope of this family history.
However, 10 of the 14 recorded MAWBY births in WA were much earlier, ranging from 1897 to 1912 which is within the timeframe of this project.
Six of these children were born to JOHN HENRY MAWBY and ALICE SOPHIA JAMES. The first born, ARTHUR HENRY, was born in 1897 in Coolgardie, the next three, ERNEST CRAIG, LILY RUTH and PERCIVAL GEORGE, Fremantle, and the last two unnamed infants who were stillborn at Kalgoorlie and Chidlows Well.
The deaths of the parents, JOHN HENRY and ALICE MAWBY, and all their children are recorded.
