1900 - Kevin Carrucan first Assumption boarder38 viewsKevin James O'Doherty Carrucan, the oldest of 5 children born to Patrick Joseph Carrucan and Agnes Mary Hardbottle, was born in Pyalong, Victoria, on the 6th March 1885.
He arrived at Assumption College, Kilmore, Victoria, on the 15th August 1900 as the first boarder to board at that famous college. He was brought to the school from Lancefield by Fr. Farrelly, the then Parish Priest of Kilmore and the founder of Assumption. There were no more than five boarders at this point with about 50 day students. Kevin was Dux of the School in 1900.
Whilst appointed to Traralgon Creek State School, he met his future wife Rubina Beaton who lived in nearby Koornalla. They married on 22nd June 1910 at Traralgon. Kevin and Rubina had four children Patricia, Donald, Enid and John. Kevin then went on to join the Commonwealth Public Service which was then developing in Melbourne because Canberra had not yet been founded. In the mid 1920's he went overseas to take up a position as the Secretary to the Australian Ambassador at Australia House in London. Rubina and the children lived in Brugge in Belgium whilst Kevin lived in London.
He returned to Australia in March 1931 and returned to work at Canberra in November 1931 but died soon after.
He was a grandson of Peter Carrucan and Hannah Woods.
This photo appeared in a 1984 Assumption College Newsletter, obtained when our son was attending the same College and was given to us by Kath and Grahame Murphy.
