Geo. J. Bone and Sons was established in 1919 by George J.
Bone and his son Stan on 1.5 acres of land in Maria Street,
Edwardstown.
Stan had moved to Australia at the age of 21 in 1910 and
then convinced his father, mother and the rest of the family
to
come in 1912.
In 1932 Stan Bone had negotiated to purchase the land we
currently trade from for the sum of 500 Pounds. This purchase
was made
during the depression and gives an indication of the foresight
of this era.
We currently trade with very similar goals in mind as they
did in 1919 - providing a quality product to our customers
at a fair
price. We take great pride in our homes as a family an expect
to sell to you and your builder exactly the same material as
we would use in ours.
" Bone Timber
Industries - a traditional merchant with
a progressive
outlook and a desire to provide the builder and the handyman with good service and a quality product."
