Biography
Chales Mallard married Annie Clarkson in 1908 and they had three children, Grace Annie Mallard, Charles Arthur Mallard and Mollie Clarkson Mallard.
Early in his career Charles worked as a comercial travler then went on to work with his father John Mallard as a bicycle agent at J Mallard & Son from 1912 until 1926.
Charles worked as a sheepfarmer in Kaipoi in the late 1920's and went bankrupt in 1930 after purchasing ‘Silverstream’ Farm at Mayfield. The New Zealand Farmers’ Co-operative Association withdrew their financing of the purchase as they believed he had overpaid for the property.
