'''Early years''' A horse was killed in the stable of the family pub by John Lloyd on 22/12/1872 ([[The North Eastern Ensign at KellyGang 17/1/1873|Ensign17/1/1873]])

My father, '''Laurence O'Brien''' was the publican in [[Greta|Greta]]. When he died in 1874 my mother '''Bridget''' continued to run the pub with the help of of her brother in law '''Daniel Kennedy'''.

She got a number of government contracts to provide food to officials.
