Barb - Carlton devotee, daughter of Fred Fitzgibbon
1942 60 Years A Member
"Carlton officials have entered the list on the question of the oldest football member. They said last night that Mr. Arthur Page, of Glen Iris, has been a member for 60 consecutive years, and his membership tickets were now displayed in the rooms. His nephew is Ted Kennedy , a former champion wingman who had McGregor and Bruce on the same line.
Carlton claims also to have the oldest living footballer. He is Mr. A. E. Chadwick*, of Dromana. Now aged 95, he was captain in the first year of the club in 1864.
Another old player is John Melville, who first played in 1877, and was later secretary.
(Argus June 03 p8)
.* Blueseum has not found any record of A. E. Chadwick, but there is William J. Chadwick who played with the Blues in 1866 and was the brother of first Carlton captain Harry Chadwick.
William who lived in Dromana passed away soon after his 91st. birthday in June 1941.
Larrikins Of Melbourne
Pushes/Gangs
Pushes were a youth sub-culture which existed from the 1860's to the 1920's. The economic depression of 1890's threw a lot of people out if work and some of the working-class youth were drawn to the push.
Some Carlton based pushes,
The Bouveroos, Cardigan Street, Emu (based on Lincoln Square) Great Northern, Nicholson Street, Pitt Street.
Each inner suburb had their own gangs. According to the article below, Carlton was now, in 1899, the eppicentre of the Larrikin.
The word Larrikin like Barrackers and Footy seem to be Melbourne derived words.
This article is not about football and supporters, but the gangs of Melbourne and in particular Carlton. This story is from 1899.
