Jean Colvin (nee Wragge) was one of two daughters of Hugh and Margaret Wragge (nee Wildridge). Jean married Dr Clifford Colvin from Orange during WW2 in Sydney. He was a major in the Medical Corps and had served in Tobruk, Crete and New Guinea. He played Wimbledon in 1929 and the Australian Open 1930 and1931. He was an ophthalmologist in Qrange. Jean was one of the early founders of CanAssist a charity assisting cancer patients more formally known as the Cancer Patients Assistance Society of NSW Pty Ltd. Whilst dying of cancer in the 1950s she set up the Orange Branch of CanAssist. Her sister Margaret Witts (nee Wragge) married Frank Witts a grazier in Gunnedah and helped set up the Gunnedah Branch of CanAssist. Because of Jean's work for cancer patients in the Orange district and the inspiration she engendered when a hospital in Darling Point was set up to look after country cancer patients in the early 1960s it was named The Jean Colvin Hospital. The above was written by John H C Colvin ( johnhccolvin@outlook.com.au )
