  • Notes 
    • Norman was a Timber worker ie tree felling etc, for saw milling in Victoria, Australia. He was serving in PNG (Papua and New Guinea) with the AIF (Australian Imperial Force) doing road making with his brother Hewey. Both brothers were in "bush band " and good playing wind instruments.

      Norman passed away sometime in the 1970's.

      Description: I am the niece of Norman Mc Alpin. He used to visit his brother Hugh
      Bain, my father, regularly in the early 1960's. My favourite uncle, and sadly Missed.
      Norman's father was John Mc Alpin. His mothers name was Anne Bain. Please feel free
      to contact me via email if you want. Norman was, like most of his brothers, a good
      musician and he and Dad used to have Janm sessions in the front parlour. Norman played
      the guitar and banjo, and saxophone too, I think, and Dad played the Sax, or violin,
      or banjo as well.
      Dad was the most versatile, but Norman was no slouch either. I do remember he wrote
      an alternative set of lyrics to On the Road to Mandalay, about possibly his time
      in New Guinea during the war. Sadly, I don't have this paper. But I do have his banjo
      mandolin. My condolences on the passing of Grace, Brian. Best wishes, Janm

    Died:
    • Per Martine Marie McAlpin-Storey: Her (Lillian Grace McAlpin) Father also died when she was 19 so it must have been about 1965 not 1970.
