BACK BAR STORIES | VOL. 31 🍻📖
One Man’s Story, Michael Ernest “Ernie” Sutherland

This week’s Back Bar Story comes courtesy of another piece of local history generously brought through our doors.

A huge thank you to Brenda, a relative of Michael Ernest “Ernie” Sutherland, who recently brought us these incredible records and gave us permission to share his story.

Ernie enlisted in the Australian Imperial Force in July 1915, aged 20, and served during the First World War. After returning to Australia, his life would eventually bring him and his family to Bethanga.

His father, Michael Owen, became the licensee of the Bethanga Court House Hotel (now known as Bethanga Hotel), while Ernie and his wife Mary also spent time living here before moving to Melbourne.

Sadly, Ernie’s story ended back in Bethanga. On 23 May 1929, aged just 33, he was killed when the car he was travelling in with two friends left a bridge and plunged into Red Creek on a foggy night. His two friends escaped, but Ernie drowned.

There is so much more to his story than we could fit into a caption, so this week we really encourage you to have a read through the slides.

Included is; a picture of Ernie as a young boy (back left) with his family, A picture of his father Micheal (Front left) outside the Pub, A small summary of his life, One Man’s Story – Michael Ernest Sutherland, published in the Berringa Community News in 2018, along with a copy of the 1929 Coroner’s Inquest, giving us a remarkable glimpse into both Ernie’s life and the circumstances surrounding his death.

Ernie, his mother and his father are all buried in the Bethanga Cemetery.

Thank you again to Brenda for sharing these pieces of her family history with us and allowing another Bethanga story to be remembered. ❤️
