Ada Margaret Howe

George William Howe, Ada's husband, and William Rose, established the Yarra Bay Pleasure Grounds in 1901. 

Ada Margaret Dennis married George at St Bartholomew’s Church, Pyrmont on 19 August 1902. They had nine children together: Irene, George, Robert, Walter, Margery, Edna, Erina, Elsie and Henry.

After George's death in 1916, she continued to run the grounds with her family, until it fell into disuse during the depression.
