The township of Eumundi came into being in 1891 with the construction of the railway line between Cooroy and Yandina. It’s main industry was timber getting and in its heyday the town boasted two saw mills. Charles Henry Ball was born in Eumundi on 17 March, 1885, to Thomas John Ball and Harriet Ball (nee Brown). Thomas Ball was one of the pioneer settlers in Eumundi. In 1882 he selected 1,520 acres of land and grew sugar cane after clearing the land of much of the rainforest. He also established a dairy farm on the property and called it “Kauri”.
As a young man Charles remained in Eumundi and made his living as a timber getter.
