World War II (7 May 1940 - 31 May 1945 Died of illness)

Geoffrey Claybrough was born in Croydon Park New South Wales on 3 December 1916, one of three children to Frank Claybrough and Bertha Worboys. 

A motor mechanic, he enlisted at Paddington NSW on 7 May 1940. He gave his father’s address at 71 Parramatta Road Haberfield. 

His initial service took place in Bathurst and Cowra and was discharged on 28 August 1941, having enlisted on 13 August for service outside the Commonwealth. 

After initially serving at the General Details Depot in Sydney, he was marched in to the 104th Light Aid Detachment 29 August. 

His records are incomplete, however it appears that Geoffrey was part of Gull Force when taken prisoner of war. 

An article in the Cumberland Argus on 27 May 1942 states that Frank Claybrough of Granville was officially notified of his son’s internment. 

He was held at Ambon POW Camp and died from illness on 31 May 1945. Some records suggest the illness was beri beri.

Geoffrey is interred at the Ambon War Cemetery.

World War II (28 May 1940 - 2 May 1941 Killed in Action)

Arthur Crossingham was born in Macksville New South Wales on 8 October 1918, one of five children to Arthur Crossingham and Meta Nelson. 

A warehouseman, he enlisted in Paddington NSW on 28 May 1940 and gave his father’s address as 18 Nichols Avenue. 

Arthur was taken on strength with the 2/1 Pioneer Battalion on 17 June and appointed as Temporary Corporal the same day. 

On 21 July he was appointed as Acting Sergeant. 

The unit embarked from Melbourne Victroia aboard HMAT Nieuw Zealand on 1 October, disembarking in Palestine on 5 November. On 4 January 1941 his temporary rank was terminated and he reverted to Corporal. 

Between 25 January and 10 February Arthur spent time in hospital with catarrhal tonsillits in Alexandria Egypt. He then spent time in a convalescent hospital in Moascar. 

Following his discharge on 1 March he was transferred to a staging camp and training unit. 

Back with the 2/1 Pioneer Battalion he moved to a forward area, and on 2 May 1941, he lost his life in Tobruk Libya. 

His father requested and received duplicate medals in 1964. 

His brothers Franic and Kevin also served, as did their father Arthur. 

He was laid to rest in the Tobruk War Cemetery in Libya.
