Frank Bedford's Journal
You'd call Frank an old salt or the freshwater equivalent. He was born in 1887 and died in 1964 and had a lot to say about his observations regarding River Murray craft.
A copy of his journal was given to Geoff Byrnes by Frank's grand daughter, Jan (Egan) Skewes in 2016.
We'll gradually transcibe it here, together with Geoff's notes and additions.
