MAYLANDS HISTORICAL AND PENINSULA ASSOCIATION

Bob Corby was a researcher,  author and a  member of our Association who died on 6 July 2019 after a brief battle with cancer.

MHPA thanks and honours Bob for his years of commitment to history and heritage work and especially for his work to research the lives behind the names on the Maylands War Memorial. The ‘now and then’ images in his Footprints through Time books were a delight.

Bob was always thrilled by the people who embraced his books and our volunteers always enjoyed Bob dropping in at the Old Police Station for a cuppa and a chat.

Bob’s books included:

  • Soldiers of the Maylands Cenotaph WWI 1914-1918 (book available for reference or purchase from our association),
  • Footprints through Time (book available in two editions for reference or purchase from our association), and
  • The Kids in the ‘Hood (book available for reference in our library).
