Biographies Summary (3)

George Henry Boundy was a well known early wireless experimenter in the period before WW1. He was a member of the brief lived Wireless Institute of Queensland, but does not appear to have continued his interest through the Queensland Wireless Institute post WW1. He was a contemporary of Edward Gustavus Campbell Barton and was a member of the Queensland Electrical Association with Barton in the 1890s. He was originally a testing officer with the Department of Posts and Telegraphs in Victoria from 1882 and accepted a similar position in the Queensland department. He retired in 1931 and passed suddenly in 1932 while visiting relations in Victoria. The Boundy family was known in Victoria through their association with the earliest discoveries of gold in Victoria in 1851.
