释义 |
Woolnough's grandson was Peter Allen, a flamboyant cabaret singer who immortalised Woolnough with the song "Tenterfield Saddler".[2] Woolnough's son, Dick Woolnough, became a violent alcoholic upon returning from World War II, eventually shooting and killing himself.[3] Woolnough never understood, nor got over this devastating event. Built in 1860 of quarried blue granite, the Tenterfield Saddlery at which Woolnough worked is National Trust of Australia listed. On 26 November 2005 an extension of the Tenterfield library was opened and named the "George Woolnough Wing".[4] George Woolnough owned terrier dogs, like those bred by many people in the district. On account of George's subsequent fame immortalised in song, the fame of the town, and the known concentration of breeders in the area, this distinctly Australian breed was named the Tenterfield Terrier in 1993.[5] Sources1. ^{{cite web | title =Tenterfield Saddlery | work = | publisher =Tenterfield Tourism | url =http://www.nnsw.com.au/tenterfield/saddle.html | accessdate = 2007-10-04 }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Woolnough, George}}2. ^https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMauNjr7_ZE 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/the-true-blue-sounds-of-australia/story-e6frg6n6-1226808067586|title=The true blue sounds of Australia|last=Adams|first=Cameron|date=26 January 2014|work=The Australian|publisher=News Limited|accessdate=27 January 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web | title =Tenterfield Public Library | work = | publisher =State Library of New South Wales | url =http://www.sl.nsw.gov.au/pls/professional/pdf/riley.pdf | format=pdf | accessdate = 2007-10-04 }} 5. ^http://www.tenterfieldterrier.info/history.html 3 : People from New England (New South Wales)|Year of birth missing|Year of death missing |
