History

Walter Cunningham Hume (1839–1921),a surveyor, migrated to Queensland from England in 1962. He was joined by his widowed mother and four siblings. He married Anna Kate “Katie” Fowler in Brisbane, Australia in 1866. Three of the eight children of Walter and Katie Hume survived - Ethel Stansfielt Hume, Bertram Cunningham Hume and Albert Steward Hume. During their time in Australia, the Hume's lived in Drayton, Stanthorpe, Toowoomba and Brisbane. After Walter Hume retired in 1901 the family returned to England and travelled the world. Walter Hume spent almost 40 years surveying the Darling Downs region of Queensland. He was an active photographer in the pre-federation period of Australian history and continued to photograph family and events after retirement.
