He married Lucinda Matilda and their children were Tralford E and Camille D. With friend Leon Lambert, North purchased 60 acres of land around Karingal Drive and Sherbourne Road and built two houses; they paid for a wooden bridge for access. North eventually sold his house to a family named Green but later the land was sold to the Shire of Eltham, and it is now known as Meruka Park, and the house, Meruka House; Alan Gardner named the park. After Lambert's death, his property was bought by Fred Warne. Edley North was born in 1835, and died 26 March 1923; he married Caroline North, born 1835, died 23 July 1922.

He was granted an allotment of 221 acres on Phillip Island 1868-1870. on 7 April 1874 he travelled to Pine Lodge and later moved his wife and five children. He and Caroline later moved to a small farm, Willow Grove in Eltham, purchased between 1905 and 1910 (first mentioned in the rate book in 1908 as being a house and 10 acres on Susan Street, and would also have had frontage on Brougham Street); Their daughter Violet Alice inherited it; she married Walter J Dobson around 1921; he died on 25 March 1948 aged 77 and Violet on 4 January 1947.

The WMI operated until 1963, at which time it was one of the oldest Mechanics’ Institutes in Victoria. Mechanics’ Institutes offered important services to the public including libraries, reading rooms and places to display and store collections of all sorts such as curiosities and local historical relics. In 1886 a Museum and Fine Arts Gallery were added to the WMI and by the beginning of the 20th century there was also a billiards room and a School of Art. By this time all Mechanics’ Institutes in country Victoria had museums attached. Over the years the Warrnambool Mechanics’ Institute Library was also known as the Warrnambool Public Library the Warrnambool Library and the Free Library. Early funding from the government was for the “Free Library”. The inscription in a book “Science of Man” was for the “Warrnambool Public Library”, donated by Joseph Archibald in 1899. Another inscription in the book “Catalogue of Plants Under Cultivation in the Melbourne Botanic Gardens 1 & 2, 1883” was presented to the “Warrnambool Library” and signed by the author W.R. Guilfoyle. In 1903 the Warrnambool Public Library decided to add a Juvenile Department to library and stock it with hundreds of books suitable for youth. In 1905 the Public Library committee decided to update the collection of books and added 100 new novels plus arrangements for the latest novels to be included as soon as they were available in Victoria. In July 1911 the Warrnambool Council took over the management of the Public Library, Art Gallery, Museum and Mechanics’ Institute and planned to double the size of the then-current building. In 1953, when Mr. R. Pattison was Public Librarian, the Warrnambool Public Library’s senior section 10,000 of the 13,000 books were fiction. The children’s section offered an additional 3,400 books. The library had the equivalent of one book per head of population and served around 33 percent of the reading population. The collection of books was made up of around 60 percent reference and 40 percent fiction. The library was lending 400 books per day. In 1963 the Warrnambool City Council allocated the site of the Mechanics’ Institute building, which included the Public Library, Museum and Art Gallery, for the new Municipal Offices and the Collections were dispersed until 1971. The Warrnambool Library took over the Mechanics’ Institute Library’s holdings on behalf of the Warrnambool City Council. Since the closure of the Warrnambool Mechanics’ Institute the exact location and composition of the original WMI books and items has become unclear. Other materials have been added to the collection, including items from Terang MI, Warrnambool Court House and Customs House. Many of the books have been identified as the Pattison Collection, named after the Librarian who catalogued and numbered the books during his time as Warrnambool Public Librarian in the time before the Mechanics’ Institute closed. It seems that when Warrnambool became part of the Corangamite Regional Library some of the books and materials went to its head office in Colac and then back to Warrnambool where they were stored at the Art Gallery for quite some time. Some then went to the Warrnambool Historical Society, some stayed at the Art Gallery and some were moved to Flagstaff Hill Maritime Village. The various stamps and labels on the books held at Flagstaff Hill show the variety of the collection’s distribution and origin. The books in the collection at Flagstaff Hill Maritime Village date from the 1850’s to the late 1950’s and include rare and valuable volumes. Many of the books are part of the “Pattison Collection” after the Warrnambool’s Public Librarian, Mr. R. Pattison.

... Dobson. Inscription on bottle and base. c. 1905 Container Bottle Australia Great Ocean Road Victoria Warrnambool John Fletcher ...This bottle once contained John Fletcher’s ginger cordial. It was found in August 2014 in the sand dunes at Levy's Point, near McKinnon's quarry, Warrnambool. ABOUT JOHN FLETCHER of WARRNAMBOOL John Fletcher Cordial (or Beverage) Co.. Warrnambool supplied cordial and aerated drinks to the Western District of Victoria. John Fletcher was named as a cordial manufacturer in the Warrnambool Standard of June 13th 1895, when he attended a Publican’s Association meeting. Mr John Fletcher, aerated water and cordial manufacturer of Koroit Street, Warrnambool, had a summary of his factory printed in a short article in the Advocate, Melbourne, in February 1901. The article said, “one of the most complete plants outside the metropolis … spacious … well appointed …old-established business … noted for the excellence of the quality … a trial [of the beverage] is solicited.” John Fletcher and Harold Caffin, trading as J.S. Rowley & Co, cordial manufacturers in 1903, were prosecuted in September that year when the Board of Health found an analysed sample of Raspberry Vinegar to contain coal tar colouring, which could be injurious to health, particularly to the kidneys. The factory was still in operation in December 1924, when sadly, Mr S. Fletcher, who was carrying bottles of aerated water at Mr John Fletcher’s cordial factory, sustained an eye injury when one of the bottles burst. Later, the eye had to be removed at the Warrnambool Base Hospital. ABOUT CODD BOTTLES Many inventions during the mid-to-late 1800s kept the fizz in carbonated drinks, such as ginger ale, soda water, and fruit drinks. Hiram Codd, an English engineer, invented a successful process that he patented as “Codd’s patented globe stopper bottle” in 1872. The Codd-neck bottle (commonly called Codd or marble bottle) is manufactured in two parts. The body of the bottle is cast in two sections. At the time of joining the sections, a glass marble and rubber seal are inserted into the neck section. The lip is then applied to the top of the bottle. The Codd bottle is filled upside down as the pressure of the gas from the carbonated liquid holds the marble up and out of the way. When the bottle stands upright, the gas pushes the marble up against the washer, creating a firm seal to keep the fizz inside. The bottle is opened by pushing the marble down firmly to allow some of the gas to escape. The marble drops down and is caught in a depression formed in the neck. When the bottle is tilted to pour or drink the liquid, the marble rests in a dimple. Some have said that the bottle is a character, the shape having a face with its mouth keeping the marble out of the drink and eyes that catch the marble so that it doesn’t roll into the mouth of the drinker. The Codd bottle was expensive to produce, and children loved to destroy the marbles to play with the marbles inside. Many shops and factories added a deposit to the cost of buying the drink to encourage children to return the bottles rather than break it for the marble. Codd bottles are still being produced in India and Japan for soft drinks. A Codd bottle with the same markings as this one is valued on today’s Australian auction sites from AUD 35 - $75.

However, in 1994, Victoria underwent council amalgamations, which resulted in Braybrook being incorporated into the City of Maribyrnong. The suburb of Maidstone continues to attract considerable attention from the residents of City of Brimbank, particularly its historical features, the old buildings and distinctive streetscapes that characterise the area.To capture the essence of Maidstone in 2021, a series of photographs were taken. These images document a range of buildings, street scenes, and other notable points of interest throughout the suburb, providing a visual record of its unique character.5592.01 - Ballarat Rd 3 - 5 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.02 - Ballarat Rd 17a Maidstone 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5592.03 - Ballarat Rd 27 - 29 Maidstone - Former Email Meters Factory 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.04 - Ballarat Rd 45 - Former Shop 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.05 - Ballarat Rd 49 - 57 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.06 - Ballarat Rd 63 - 65 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.07 - Ballarat Rd 81 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.08 - Ballarat Rd 101 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.09 - Ballarat Rd 115 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.10 - Ballarat Rd 127 - 131 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.11 - Ballarat Rd 46 Maidstone - Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.12 - Ballarat Rd 115 Maidstone 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5592.13 - Ballarat Rd 154 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.14 - Ballarat Rd 154 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5592.15 - Ballarat Rd 154 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 03.JPG 5592.16 - Ballarat Rd 154 Maidstone - Former Shop 2021 Photo 04.JPG 5592.17 - Commercial St 1 - 11 Maidstone - Shops.JPG 5592.18 - Curtin St Maidstone - Fish And Chip Shop 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.19 - Dobson Kindergarten Rogers Reserve Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.20 - Dobson Reserve 2021 Photo 05.JPG 5592.21 - Dobson Reserve 2021 Photo 06.JPG 5592.22 - Drey Park Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.23 - Emu Rd 35 - 37 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.24 - Emu Rd 52 - 64 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.25 - Gilda St 10 - 12 Maidstone - MacKillop Education Maidstone Campus 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5592.26 - Hampstead Rd 2 - 8 Maidstone 2021 Photo 02.JPG 5592.27 - Hampstead Rd 2 Maidstone - Supermarket 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.28 - Hampstead Rd 5 Maidstone - New Apostolic Church 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.29 - Hampstead Rd 40 - Iglesia Ni Cristo - Locale of Melbourne 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.30 - Lyon St Maidstone - Our Lady's Parish Hall 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.31 - Maidstone Child And Family Centre Rogers Reserve Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.32 - Mitchell St - Jemena Zone Substation BY 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.33 - Mitchell St 54 Maidstone - Worldwide Missionary Movement Melbourne 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.34 - Mitchell St 86 - 88 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.35 - Mitchell St 90 Maidstone - Hillsong Melbourne West 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.36 - Mitchell St 108 Maidstone - Warren And Brown 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.37 - Mitchell St 110 - 112 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.38 - Mitchell St 112 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.39 - Mitchell St 114 - 116 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG 5592.40 - Mitchell St 116 Maidstone 2021 Photo 01.JPG ballarat road, commercial street, curtin street, emu road, glida street, hampstead road, lyon street, mitchell street, maidstone, catholic archdiocese of melbourne, dobson kindergarten, rogers reserve, dobson reserve, drey park, mackillop education maidstone campus, new apostolic church, ernie's supermarket, iglesia ni cristo - locale of melbourne, our lady's parish hall, maidstone child and family centre, jemena zone substation, worldwide missionary movement melbourne, hillsong melbourne west, warren and brown -
