     Joseph Henry Hollow (1872-1928)

Joseph Henry Hollow was the third son of Joseph Hollow and Eliza Oates and would have been only one year old when his mother died. It is believed that he was brought up by his Aunty, Lucy at Byawatha. She married Lewis Thomas in 1877, he died in 1878, she married a second time to Anthony Allen in 1898.

Joseph moved to Western Australia and was known around Southern Cross at about the turn of the century. He joined the AIF on 5/2/1916 at the age of 43, his enlistment papers describe him as having a bronzed complexion with blue eyes and brown hair, he was 5'4" tall and weighed 140 lbs. He was a sapper in the army and was attached to the 2nd. Reinforcements of 3rd. Company of the 1st. Mining Battalion.

The Mining Corps was made up of men that..

          "were on average older than most infantrymen but were marked by a capacity for very fast work and the willingness to take great risks".

It is interesting to note that there were two other Hollows who were members of the Australian Tunnelling Coys. during WWI. [Pte. John Hollow (Army no. 5756) and Sgt. William James Hollow (Army no. 593)]

Joseph arrived at Marseilles aboard the "City of Edinburgh" on 17/5/1916 and marched in to the troop depot at Etaples, near Boulogne, on 1/6/1916. On the 24th June Joseph was admitted to hospital with pharyngitis, an infection of the throat and was subsequently shipped to England on the H.S. Newhaven.
On the 3rd of September, 1916 he was taken on strength of the 1st. Australian Tunnelling Corps. At that time the Tunnelling Corps were on active duty at Hill 60, 2.5 miles SE of Ypres. The mines at Hill 60 were active from 1915 to 1917, they were started by the British and in April 1916 were taken over by the 3rd. Canadian Tunnelling Company, many Australians worked with this unit.

The 1st. Australian Tunnelling Company took over on the 9th. of September so presumably Joseph Hollow saw active duty there. The mines were dug to undermine the German lines as part of a plan to capture Messines. The mines were finally blown up on the 7th. June 1917 and although the Australians remained until that time Joseph Hollow was hospitalised in December 1916 with influenza, taken back to England and admitted to the 1st. General hospital with bronchitis. When he recovered Joseph was joined the nursing staff, he returned to Australia on , the troop ship A54. He left England in December 1917 and was discharged from the army on the 6/3/1918.

Aunty Gwen remembers Joe visiting the family one Christmas, Ivy gave him a present and he said it was the first Christmas box he had ever received. Once during the visit the men were drinking beer and Uncle Joe offered some to Col, who accepted it gladly. Grandma was most upset about it as Col was only a youth at the time.

For more than 25 years Joseph prospected in the Yilgarn and the Phillips River area and was once described as "the Yilgarn's most reliable and best known prospector". He discovered a number of new finds but left little material wealth when he died. He discovered "the Banker", 10 miles SE of Marvel Loch and took over the lease of the "Francis Furnace". He also discovered gold in the Forrestiana area 40 miles S of Southern Cross.

Joseph was best known for discovering a new field in the Glenelg hills area 30 miles SW of Southern Cross in 1924. This field was originally known as "Hollow's Find" but was later changed to Holleton to include the names of both finders, Joseph Hollow and his partner Alfred Heaton.

The following extract from "The Holleton Story" compiled by Iris Bristow for the Narembeen Historical Society explains the discovery:

" Rumours had been rife, prior to 1924, that gold existed somewhere near the Rabbit Proof Fence. Prospectors, Mr. Joseph Hollow and his mate, Mr. Alfred Heaton decided that they would have a look and see if they could locate any of the gold that was supposed to be there.

Starting out with a prospecting outfit and a load of provisions, they went down the line from Southern Cross, and struck the Rabbit Proof Fence at Burracoppin. They altered their course and came south for about 50 miles, travelling along the fence. When they struck the grandstone country they gradually worked east for about 2.5 miles, where they found traces of gold. After considerable work they succeeded in locating a leader, "which was to rich to leave". The date was September 5th, 1924.

The Reward lease of 24 acres (Number 3280) was approved by the Governor in Executive Council on the 15th. of July, 1925, and rent for 5 years was remitted (the maximum number of years allowed). It was described as being 3 miles North East of the 50 mile peg on the Rabbit Proof fence. The Mining Registrar referred to the locality as Glenelg Hills, and reported that Hollow and Heaton were working with the assistance of the State Prospecting Board.

The find was known as Hollow's Find, and sometimes as Hollow and Heaton's Find. The name was finally fixed as Holleton in 1927, as it was quite a euphonious name, and also perpetuated the names of the original finders.

On locating the gold in September 1924, Hollow and Heaton dollied about half a ton of stone for a result of 12 ozs of gold worth 3-19-6 ($8) per oz. Later they treated a further 25 tons for 8 oz per ton at the Coolgardie Battery. ......"

Joseph Hollow eventually sold his share in the Reward mine to his partner Alfred Heaton.

Joseph died in Southern Cross on 20/9/1928 and was buried on 23/9/1928 in grave no. 120 in the Anglican section of the Southern Cross cemetery.
Joseph was born at El Dorado, VIC, AUS, in 1872. Joseph died on 20 September 1928 at Southern Cross, W.A., AUS, .

Obituary.
Regret was expressed in Narembeen- when it was known that Mr. Joseph Hollow, prospector, of Holleton, Glenelg Hills, had died. He served in the Miners' Corps in the war and on his return he took up his former occupation of prospecting. At his mine, ? Hollow's Reward, there is some good stone ready for treatment.
The West Australian Tuesday 2 October 1928.1 He was buried on 23 September 1928 at Southern Cross, W.A., AUS.
