Misc. Notes
British Soldiers in Australia - Thomas Loseby - 4th Regiment

The three Loseby brothers, Richard, Charles and Thomas settled in the Bong Bong area.

The Bong Bong district was generally considered a hundred years ago to extend from "Harby Farm" to "Throsby Park", and for a mile or two radius from the village.

Mr. Charles Loseby (incorrectly spelt Lozeby) acquired soon after arriving in Australia in 1845 two of the Veterans' blocks; No. 47 from W. R. Green, which he called "Saradale", and No. 46 from Lynn Shepherd which was called "Mt. Pleasant"; on the N.W. end of this block he built "Harby Farm" (now the property of Mr. Frank Albert).

Opposite, facing the Old Argyle Road, Thomas Loseby (a former Army Sergeant, and a brother of Charles and Richard Loseby), built an Inn, the "Farmers' Home", the foundation marks of which are still discernible. 335

From 1840 to 1847 Thomas was the licensee of the Kentish Arms, The Pleasant Inn and The Bargo Tavern.
