A birthdate of 1844 is difficult to fit into the sequence of birthdates of siblings - 1839 is suggested as the only vacant spot!

Was a pioneer Gippsland settler like his younger brother Edward Charles. See www.barrow-lousada.org for early Australian involvement with his brother Edward Charles Lousada.
On 14 Nov 1882 Mr H A Lousada of Lardner was gazetted JP in the Eastern Bailiwick. On 28 Nov 1882 he asked for road improvement to Lardner's track between his place and McDonald's Track. He sold cattle on 23 Feb 1884 at Drouin. On 11 Sep 1884 he was appointed licensing magistrate for Drouin. On 4 Dec 1884 attended a meeting to consider forming a Warragul Agricultural Society. He became a newly appointed Magistrate for Torwood and Lardner as reported in the Bairnsdale Advertiser and Tambo and Omeo Chronicle 14 July 1885. On 7 Mar 1885 he attended a committee meeting of the Warragul Agricultural Society. He served as a JP in Warragul 1884-7, and he was then missed because later JP services in Warragul were not so diligently performed (as a letter published 17 Jan 1890 in the Warragul Guardian etc made clear).
During the period 1887-1891 he was in Traralgon and sat on many cases as a JP. He sold cattle on 17 Nov 1888. On 17th May 1889 he attended the first anniverary of the Tyers Mechanics Institute and chaired the concert. Also in 1889 he took part in local prospecting expeditions which appeared to confirm a small quantity of shallow black coal in the Tyers district near his place but most of the coal appeared to be an extension of the Morwell brown coal seam. He left Traralgon 1 July 1891 to take up duties as a JP in Dandenong.
He was a long-serving and very busy magistrate in the 1890-1922 period for Dandenong (his early cases must have been before he moved permanently from Traralgon). During this period he seems to have spent time away eg on 11 Jan 1896 he was reported as being at Bullengrook near Bacchus Marsh, and The Australasian on 1 Jun 1901 reports a function at the Mechanics Institute where he was farewelled on his return to Warragul from Gisborne where he was thanked for his a JP and for assisting Anglican services at Gisborne and Upper Macedon. Some of his residences during his Dandenong period were Cassilis 1914,and Dandenong 1914-9. He visited Warragul on 1 Feb 1905 to attend the annual meeting of parishioners for St Pauls Church Warragul and

Ref 85 p26 shows him at Haileybury College in 1868
Ref 85 www.barrow-lousada.org records some details of his departure to Australia in 1871. Came to the Colony in 1872 and after 2 years at Hastings came to Brandy Creek in 1874 and selected at Jindivick.
Messrs William Hamilton & Co announce 14 Jun 1883 formation of a Warragul branch with Mr C Lousada in charge. He remained in charge until his 1887 trip to England. He was in Warragul in 9 Sep 1886 when on the C of E committee he differed with some on dispodal of 6 acres of Church land pointing out the locals had no right to it. In 1887 he and his wife were given a farewell dinner prior to
his pleasure trip England in 1877 during which Benjamin Barrow Lousada was born, and shipping reports have a Mr and Mrs Lousada en route Melbourne to London 31 July 1887. On return he opened a branch of Messrs William Hamilton & Co (he ran their Warragul branch before his trip) at Lilydale where he became involved in horse-racing. On 5 April 1889 he was elected to the committee of the Warragul and West Gippsland Agricultural Society. On 8 April 1890 he was reported as having retired from the Warragul School Board of Advice. On 20 June 1893 he was reported as auctioning through William Hamilton & Co a piece of land 17a 3r 7p being part of Allotment 93 parish of Drouin East county Buln Buln title certificate Register Book v1661 fol 332,197 (perhaps this is the piece of land shown on the title as 18a 3r 7p). On 13 April 1894 he was reported as having been appointed the representative of Messrs Hamilton & Co in the district. He was in Warragul where he wrote to the Warragul Guardian on 15 Jul 1894 on the subject of better organizing butter manufacture to ensure a uniform flavour in the light of varying diet of the cows when the preferred grass was eaten.A newspaper report of 16 Feb 1897 reported that Messrs Skews and Patterson have decided to try their luck in WA and so disposed of their business to Messrs Lousada, Hunter and Stephen. On 17 June 1898 working for Skews & Patterson of Warragul as shown by a ltter he wrote to the Warragul Guardian on a town band. In 1899 still in Warragul - 8yr old son (Barrow) nearly killed in level crossing accident (horse was. On 7 Feb 1899 it was announced that the partnership of E C Lousada, E J Hunter and G V Stephen trading as Skews ansd Patterson had been dissolved. In Warragul 25 Dec 1900 - Barrow, Edward (twice) and Aubrey win Prep School prizes.
Catherine, Ruth and Cecil appeared in annual school show at Mechanics Institute Traralgon 19 Dec 1902. Lived in Traralgon 1903 (Australian Electoral Rolls) and his 2 oldest children were confirmed in Calignee in 1903 a settlement to the south of Traralgon. B (probably Ben) Lousada takes 7/19 (all bowled) against Gormandale for Callignee but to no avail as Callignee lost! Around 1905 still lived at Calignee but moved back to Warragul - there is a newspaper report covering his fall from a horse-dawn cart which reveals this.
His move to Toora is not known in detail, but was known there in 1908. In 1911 he was farming on the share system the property of Mr R H Downing about 1km from the Toora Station on the railway line. He was very profitably milking 65 cows throughout the year with the cream going to the Foster butter factory and the skim milk going to 9 brood sows. Pumpkins were used to provide solid feed for the pigs.
He farmed at Clanville, Kardella South in the period around 1917. His letter of 17 Oct 1917 is on the subject of an appeal for eggs and how it might be better arranged while his 28 Nov 1918 letter (both to the Great Southern Advocate) favours a dry Korumburra Agricultural Show. He won a prize for maize-growing at the 1921 Korumburra A&P Society competitions.
He was living in East Malvern around 21 May 1929 when he wrote to The Argus on his recollections of Cobb&Co. He attended the 50 year jubilee of St Marks Warragul on 6 Dec 1930 and spoke on the occasion. The obituary of EC Lousada in the Warrugul and West Gippsland Gazette of 5 April 1932 refers to a brother-in-law C S Affleck living close by in Tetoora. It also mentions his brother (Howel Arthur) who occupied the Torwood Estate. It also reveals that he lost money in the Land Boom and became a dairy farmer at Korumburra (ignoring his Traralgon and Toora phases).

Commemoration details Australian National Memorial, Villers-Bretonneux, France Villers-Bretonneux is a village about 15 km east of Amiens. The Memorial stands on the high ground ('Hill 104') behind the Villers-Bretonneux Military Cemetery, Fouilloy, which is about 2 km north of Villers-Bretonneux on the east side of the road to Fouilloy. The Australian National Memorial, Villers-Bretonneux is approached through the Military Cemetery, at the end of which is an open grass lawn which leads into a three-sided court. The two pavilions on the left and right are linked by the north and south walls to the back (east) wall, from which rises the focal point of the Memorial, a 105 foot tall tower, of fine ashlar. A staircase leads to an observation platform, 64 feet above the ground, from which further staircases lead to an observation room. This room contains a circular stone tablet with bronze pointers indicating the Somme villages whose names have become synonymous with battles of the Great War; other battle fields in France and Belgium in which Australians fought; and far beyond, Gallipoli and Canberra. On the three walls, which are faced with Portland stone, are the names of 10,885 Australians who were killed in France and who have no known grave. The 'blocking course' above them bears the names of the Australian Battle Honours. After the war an appeal in Australia raised £22,700, of which £12,500 came from Victorian school children, with the request that the majority of the funds be used to build a new school in Villers-Bretonneux. The boys' school opened in May 1927, and contains an inscription stating that the school was the gift of Victorian schoolchildren, twelve hundred of whose fathers are buried in the Villers-Bretonneux cemetery, with the names of many more recorded on the Memorial. Villers-Bretonneux is now twinned with Robinvale, Victoria, which has in its main square a memorial to the links between the two towns.
