Notes:

Charles SIDEY was married to Allison Isabella WALKER (daughter of James WALKER of Wallowang. and Robina Ramsay WALKER) in 1854 in Wallerawang, NSW. Australia. Early Days Very little is now known of the aboriginal inhabitants of the Newnes area, but there are some reminders. The most accessible of these are the rock art galleries at "Blackfellows Hand" near Wolgan Gap. European settlement arrived in the 1840s when James Walker of Wallerawang set up a pastoral out-station in the Wolgan Valley. More land was taken up in the 1860s and 70s, particularly by Walker's son-in-law, Edwin Barton. These included several isolated blocks in the Newnes area, including the present hotel site. Prospectors had located oil-shale in the Wolgan Valley in the 1860s and by the turn of the century several individuals and companies had started work (of sorts) on the main Capertee-Wolgan deposit. Most of these were actually located in the Capertee Valley, north of the Wolgan. However, very little was actually accomplished until the Commonwealth Oil Corporation, Ltd., started work in 1906.

He was elected Lord Provost of Perth in 1840 served until 1847. Lord Provost Charles Graham Sidey was one of the most versatile men of his day, and he needed to be. He lived in a period of commercial transition. He owed his middle name to his family's connection with Thomas Graham of Balgowan (afterwards Lord Lynedoch) While his godfather was fighting his country's battles in Spain, Charles Graham was developing a big business at the Perth Bridge end of George Street as a bookseller, stationer, and printer and he also held the office of postmaster in the days of the Royal mail coaches and Sir. Rowland Hill's introduction of the adhesive 1d postage stamps in 1840. At that time the postmaster of Perth was a non-Government man, and was assisted by one clerk and two letter deliverers; the staff of the Perth Post Office now number about 200 individuals. Sidey attended to the various occupations above-mentioned( and the Royal mail and private stage-coaches were then at the zenith of their enterprise and number) and yet he was able to give a good part of hiss time to the work of the Town Council. He was a most progressive Lord Provost, and held that office when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert first visited Scotland in 1842. Perth was included in the tour, and a well-known drawing shos a beautiful arch at Princes Street and Marshall Place. Lord Liverpool and Sir. Robert Peel accomanied and the military guard consisted of mounted carabineers. Lord Provost Sidey presented the silver keys of the city to the Queen, who retunred them with the gracious remard---"I am quite satisfied that they cannot possibly be in better hands". One of the stained glass windows in the Council Chambers was gifted by Lord Provost Sidey in rememberance of his six years as Lord Provost and his receiving the Queen in 1842. His reign of office also witnessed what was called the "railway peroid" in Perth, beginning with suggestions and negotiations and work in 1844 and ending in 1847-1848, making Perth the great railway centre it has continued to be. Lord Provost Sidey was "testimonialised" on demitting office. For many years Charles Graham Sidey lived at 2 Charlotte Street and latterly in 21 Barossa Place Perth with his third wife Sarah Barclay. An aged daughter of Lord Provost Sidey (Mrs.Carmichael) who lived until??? lived at Bon-Accor, Glasgow Road.
