Son of Frederick Christian and Rosina
Albert George was born on 30 November 1893 at Barraba and died on 6 July 1911. It is believed that he was accidentally killed from a fall off a horse. However, his death certificate states that he died from a malignant growth of the lung, and was a patient at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Camperdown, at the time of his death. He was buried at Barraba on 8 July 1911, next to his grandparents, Conrad and Louisa.
Two of Christie and Rosie’s sons enlisted in the armed forces of World War 1 – Wilfred James in January 1916 and Frederick Kimberley in February 1917. Wilfred was killed in France, and Frederick returned to Australia, just three months before the end of the war.
