    Notes:

    Probably the Geelong Advertiser, Aug 1941

    WALTER - There were many expressions of regret in the Hamilton district when the death of Mr. H.O. Walter, of Grassmere, Hensleigh Park, became known. The late Mr. Walter was born in the Barrabool Hills district, and lived with his parents there till they removed to Warrayure. Following farming pursuits Mr. Walter early joined with his brother and selected land near Noradjuha. He was one of the pioneers of that district and could tell many interesting tales connected with the early settlers there. After his marriage in 1886 Mr. Walter selected land near Cavendish, acquiring part of the well-known estate of "Mokanger", where he resided till the time of his death. Mr. Walter's wife predeceased him fourteen years ago. The funeral was largely attended. Mrs. H.E. Leigh, of Ceres, is one of the family, which consists of two sons and four daughters.
