PARKER Charles

Charles Parker was a builder who came to Gnowangerup and built three houses on Yougenup Road, opposite the Anglican Church. The first one later became Gnowangerup's second Hospital.
Mrs. Crackell, the mother of Annie Fennell lived in one of these houses. The third house was owned by Kiddle's and is now the site of the Mobil Roadhouse. Kiddle's firm is still prominent in the district as carriers (1993).
Charles had two sons, George and Tom, who lived in two of the houses.
