COGGER - Charles, Gisborne signatory in 1901.

From page 6 of 'Pictorial Gisborne, A Journey Through Time' published May, 2001 by the Gisborne and Mount Macedon Districts Historical Society Inc, edited by Phyllis & Ian Boyd. To celebrate Federation in 1901 all Victorian Municipalities presented a 'Combined Address' to the Duke of Cornwall and York, and the First Governor General of Australia, the Earl of Hopetoun. This is part of the Gisborne presentation. Concillor Charles Cogger was a signatory (bottom left). The original is on display at the Gisborne Historical Society in the old Gisborne Courthouse (open Wednesdays).
