Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Reverend Thomas ArmourPrint Page 
Very Rev Thomas Makinson Armour, BA, Dean of Newcastle (NSW), has been elected Bishop of Wangaratta, in succession to Bishop Hart, who is retiring. The appointment has been confirmed by the Archbishop and bishops of the province. The bishop-elect expects to be consecrated and enthroned after Easter. He was ordained in England in 1916, and came out to the Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd at Dubbo (NSW) several years ago. After serving for some years as a member, and later as head of the brotherhood, he was in 1936 appointed Dean of Newcastle. Bishop Hart will conduct his farewell services at Holy Trinity Cathedral on Sunday evening next.
Argus (Melbourne), 27 January 1943.
