Notes:

He was known as Bert and had a reputation for not treating women well, according to several of his nieces, daughters of his brother Ted.
Family information suggests that Bert (sometimes spelt Burt) had relationships apart from his marriage to Margaret Shonhan.
In 1908, there is a Johannah Aldridge seemingly in the same household as Bert in Liontown, Charters Towers.
There is no recorded marriage for Bert other than the one with Margaret, so it is assumed his other relationships were common-law arrangements which are, of course, common these days but not so much 100 years past.
Bert is found with Margaret in 1930 and again in 1937, so it is assumed they separated before 1943.
In 1927, Margaret took over as licensee of the Royal Hotel, Bouldercombe, near Rockhampton; the previous licensee was her father-in-law Henry Aldridge.
By 1954, Bert is back at Kabra, near Rockhampton, with a Lily Aldridge in the same household. Her maiden name was Lily Morgan and they married in 1951 at Kabra Salvation Army Church. https://www.familyhistory.bdm.qld.gov.au/

Bert is buried with Lily. She died in January 1995.

Notes from Rockhampton City Council report regarding Roy and Eileen Coker:

Roy and Eileen Coker were both long-term residents of Rockhampton who resided in the Wandal area. Roy was born in Rockhampton on 5 May 1913 and died on 19 December 2004 aged 91. Eileen was born in Rockhampton on 26 January 1921 and died on 19 June 1999 aged 78. The couple were married in Rockhampton on 17 November 1938 and had five (5) children. Roy served in the 13 Battalion, Volunteer Defence Corps (Qld) during WW2.

In 1987, Roy and Eileen received National recognition for their community work with them both being awarded the Order of Australia, General Division for service to the community, as part of the Queen?s Birthday Honours List for that year.

This was followed by State recognition with them both receiving the Premier?s Award. Rockhampton City Council followed suit with the naming of Coker Hall, Coker Park and Coker Playground in their honour.

Coker Community Hall, Coker Park and the Coker Playground were situated on the southern riverbank between Sir Raymond Huish Drive and the Alexander Rail Bridge.

Coker Community Hall was demolished around 2007. Coker Park and the Coker Playground were subsequently demolished in late 2013 as part of redevelopment works at the World War II Memorial Pool complex.

This effectively removed the physical/visible community recognition that had earlier been extended to Roy and Eileen Coker.

In this instance where community recognition was given to Roy and Eileen Coker with some element of perpetuity attached to a community hall, a park and a playground, all of which were demolished, the opportunities to continue that association have been explored in order to convey that same recognition.

The creation of The Roy and Eileen Coker Walk in the nominated area, supported by the installation of appropriate interpretive signage, will revive the linkage of Roy and Eileen Coker to that area and restore the public recognition of their service to the community.

WEDDING BELLS BAUER-DOBBS
A pretty wedding was solemnised at Braemar, Boolburra, the home of the bride's parents, when Mavis Joyce, elder daughter of Mr and Mrs J. A. Dobbs, was married to Edward Hans Alexander (late AIF), eldest son of Mr and Mrs A. E. Bauer, Kingaroy. The Rev. Stewart Lang officiated. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a becoming gown of ivory satin, featuring a deep V neckline with touches of shirring at the shoulders, and softly folded at the waistline into a richly embroidered pointed cum- merbund. Fine buttons and loops trimmed the backline from the neck to the waist, and the same trimming was repeated at her wrists, where the long full sleeves were fitted into a band. The plain skirt fell into a long pointed train, which was beautifully embroidered at the point. Her two-tiered veil (lent by Mrs G. Smith) was of embroidered Brussels net, pleated into a halo of orange blossoms and was worn well back on her head. She wore a string of pearls and carried a bouquet of white roses.
The bride was attended by her sister, Miss June Dobbs, who chose a full-length frock of sweetheart blue taffeta, featuring a fitted bodice with a draped centre panel, tiny puff sleeves and a double ruffle round the off-shoulder bodice. The full skirt was gathered at the waist into a scalloped bodice and was finished with a double ruffle at the hem, which was stiffened to give a crinoline effect. Her headdress of white Brussels net fell to her shoulders, from a halo of stiffened tulle, and was finished with a trail of pink and blue flowers. She added long white mittens and carried a bouquet of pink roses and blue sweetpeas.
Mr Roy Bauer, brother of the bridegroom, was best man.
The bridegroom's gift to the bride was a necklet and matching ear-rings of paua shell, and to the bridesmaid he gave a gold compact. The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a travelling set.
The reception was held in the adjoining hall, which was prettily decorated with trails of pink and purple bougainvillea. Bowls of sweetpeas and ferns adorned the tables, and pride pf place was given to a two-tiered cake with appropriate decorations. The Rev. Stewart Lang presided and the usual toasts were honoured.
The bride's mother wore a floral silk crepe frock with black accessories and the bridegroom's mother chose a black frock relieved with white, to which she added a fur coat and black accessories. When leaving by car en route for Brisbane, where the honeymoon is being spent, the bride wore a sage green check silk frock and navy accessories.

Notes:

After her mother passed in 2000, Rovena wrote the following:
2 Samuel 22 v2-3: The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, the God of my rock. In Him will I trust.
13 Nov 2000
Leaving the room after mum's death feeling relief that she had not lingered or suffered for long.
Then a voice saying go back. I went back, I went back and thanked the Lord for our time together and taking her home.
As one of six we all had our own place in her life.
She had greetings for each of us. As she would say to me, "Here's the lady, you are an angel, I knew you would come." I would reply, "Yes, mum, what have you lost." She had this faith in me.
If she was going anywhere, "I must tell Vena."
I realized this was the first time in nearly 60 years that we had to say goodbye.
Later that day we all came home, as there was things to do and find. Here I found I was being asked what did she get you to go to the bank for? Why were they questioning her actions?
I had to leave and have time along that night. I got this message, just two words, shield and rock.
What did this mean?
I went over things. What had been said? But there was nothing.
I thought of a poem Grandma Coker used to say: Blacksmith and the anvil, and the hymn Grandma Sleaford used to sing, Rock of Ages.
Next day we met with Captain Owen and Pam to arrange the order of service for the funeral and the family were saying what they would like to be sung and not what mum would have liked, I then heard myself say "trust in the Lord always and obey."
Trust is shield; Lord, rock. Of course, mum's saying trust and obey.
Sitting in the service Owen was speaking and then he said this family is all grown up but they still think of trusting and obeying their mother.
