They each have a tree in the Ballarat Avenue of Honour, numbers 231 and 232 as they enlisted on the same day, 1st Sept 1914. These two trees should be directly opposite each other and located near the Ballarat Golf Club entrance. Interestingly Charles' tree was planted by a Miss M Sheppard. <br />I would love to know if the family of Charles and Albert have memories or information of them visiting their two trees upon their return and if descendants still have a connection with the Avenue trees?
