1882 Booklet on Laycock and Trickett

I discovered this on Trove. When I have time I will no doubt be able to source some more statements in this very interesting entry. I put in one reference so others (fellow editors!) would know it existed.Gladiator-Citizen (talk) 02:33, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Biography

I'm currently preparing a history of Australia's early champion scullers, Laycock included. I'd like to hear from Flags33 if you are a sculling/rowing historian/expert and/or enthusiast, and especially if you are related to Elias C. Laycock or have some means of contacting his descendants.

1902 Photo

The group photograph of Laycock and other scullers at the reception to George Towns held 5 December 1902 has been reprinted many times but rarely correctly attributed. It appeared in The Sydney Mail of 17 December 1902, p. 1584. and can be seen here. Bluedawe 00:04, 20 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
