Ada was born in Holland. Her father was a school teacher but he was killed in an accident when Ada was 12 years old. The family then moved to Amsterdam and Ada graduated as a teacher. WW2 started two years after her graduation.

Ada married her first husband Henk Schepers. Henk was a carpenter and the couple decided to emigrate to Australia, but this took some time and their first two children were born in Holland. By the time Henk and Ada made it to Australia, 4 of Henk's brothers and 2 of his sisters had already arrived in Australia.

When they first arrived in Australia Henk and Ada lived at The Gurdies. They lived for a short time at Mincha in Northern Victoria, then they went to a wheat farm at Woorak. After 2.5 years at Woorak, they returned to Lang Lang and Koo Wee Rup area where Henk and his brother set up a building business.

In 1965 the family moved to Won Wron where Henk passed away in 1976.

Daily Examiner (Grafton, NSW : 1915 - 1954) Wed 7 Mar 1945 Page 3 General Vasey Missing In Plane Crash

General Vasey Missing In Plane Crash
CANBERRA, Tues. - Major-General G- A. Vasey, C.B., D.S.O., and Major-General "R.M. Downes, C.M.G., V.D., medical historian,, are believed to have lost their lives when a service aircraft crashed into the sea a few miles north of Cairns, about 4 p.m. yesterday. This announcement was released to-night by the Prime Minister, Mr. Curtin.

The search for the plane was continued to-day. Also in the R.A.A.F. Hudson plane were nine others, who are also reported missing, believed killed.
. They are: -
Colonel R; H. Russell, A.A.M.C.; Lieut. W. Riggall. aide to General Vasey, and NX40U1 Cpl. E. L. James. Flt.-Lieut. J. W. Newell, Flying Officers D. Eassett, G. Thompson arid S. B. Freize and L.A.C. J. D. Moore.

Mr. Curtin said another army officer was in the plane and it had rot been possible to locate his next of kin. - When that was done a further announcement would be made.
' Mr. Curtin said this loss was a shocking blow to Australia and the Australian army. General Vasey's record in' this war, particularly in the New Guinea campaigns, made him outstanding as perhaps Australia's most brilliant divisional leader in this war.

Mr. Curtin said General Downes was one of Australia's most distinguished medical men. and had given valuable service to the Australian army since his first appointment to the Australian Army Medical Corps in 1908. He was at present compiling a history of the medical services of this war.
Mr. Curtin said that advice had been received about 4 p.m.' yesterday that an R.A.A.F. Hudson plane crashed' into the sea a little over two miles north of the air strip at Cairns. Weather conditions were extremely bad at the time. R.A.A.F. crash boats set out immediately in search of the personnel from the plane and found traces of the aircraft, but no signs of survivors.
ON WAY NORTH.
General Vasey, after a period spent in highly important staff work at land headquarters, was on his way north to take over an operational appointment, said Mr. Curtin. Through the last war and this he proved himself a magnificent soldier and inspiring leader. All troops who ever came under his command had been inspired by his leadership and personal courage, and by the example of his great ability as a commander.

General Downes was one of Australia's most distinguished medical men and had given valuable service to the Australian army since his first appointment, to the Australian Army Medical Corps in 1908, said the Prime Minister. His active army career ended only recently, but his association with the army continued through his appointment as war historian for medical services.

On behalf of the Australian Government I offer to the next of kin of all the brave men who have been lost the deepest sympathy. It will be, I hope, some consolation to them that their loved ones were lost in the service of their country when setting out to confront the enemy, i know the whole nation will join them in their proud sorrow," said Mr. Curtin.
