Marriage

3 October 1911 Baptist Church, Semaphore, South Australia, Australia

Note: Leo and Ellen "Nellie" Burton Livesey undoubtedly met at the Semaphore Baptist Church, which is where their wedding took place on Tuesday, 3 October 1911 at 7 pm. Following the wedding there was a reception in the school room. Leo was 24 years old and Nellie 25. Witnesse to their marriage were Eric Lawrence, salesman of New Hindmarsh and Gladys Ivy Pryor, Milliner of Alberton.

During the First World War Leo and Nell took up land in the Mallee, an area in the south-east of South Australia. Leo had bad health, and there were many bad seasons. As Nellie wrote to her brother George in 1918, .."We are both full up of it although we l ike farm life better than town, but what is the use of working so hard for nothing..."

Leo and Nellie returned to Adelaide where Leo was in partnership with his brother Wilfred in a building business--Shepherd Brothers of Westbourne Park.

Leo was a cheerful, happy person, who was proud of his only child, Leonard Livesey "Len".
