"Mr. MCEvoy, who passed away in the Mater Misericordia Hospital after a hard fight against influenza, was one of Rockhampton's most estimable citizens and his death, though not unexpected, caused many expressions of genuine regret, which was intensified by the death of his wife, who was a sufferer from influenza in the same institution and whose funeral took place on Tuesday last, and the death of his brother, Mr. G. M'Evoy, last week. A young family of six is left to mourn the death of father and mother. Mr. M'Evoy was a native of Rockhampton. He was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. G. McEvoy, who in the earlier days carried on dairying at Depot Hill, Rockhampton, but afterwards took up the country known as Table Mountain, Boongary, Rockhampton Qld."

"INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC - SEVEN DEATHS LOCALLY YESTERDAY. FIFTY-FOUR TO DATE.
(By Telegraph.) Brisbane, June 11 
The influenza position in Brisbane shows an improvement. Only one death occurred to-day. The total number of deaths reported to the Registrar-General since May is 344. There are now 318 cases in the hospitals.   
SYDNEY, June 11.
The influenza, position has suddenly grown acute, and the disease appears to be more widespread than ever, although, generally speaking, it does not seem to be as virulent as on the occasion of the last wave. Every suburb is badly infected, Mossman alone being estimated   to have 2000 cases. The hospital accommodation is again fully taxed and nurses and doctors are unable to cope with the situation. The commercial and financial institutions are short-staffed. In consequence of the further outbreak there was a notable increase in the mortality rate today, twenty-two deaths from pneumonic influenza occurring in the metropolitan hospitals and 132 new cases being admitted. The country reports show that there were seven further deaths and seventy-seven new cases.
MELBOURNE, June 11.
Ten deaths were reported to the Board of Health to-day, only one of them being in the city. The admissions to the hospitals numbered thirty-four and the discharges fifty-five. There are now 837 patients in the hospitals.
PERTH, June 11. 
The pneumonic influenza outbreak has assumed a more seriuos character. This morning the most disquieting feature was the announcement of an outbreak at Fremantle, where twelve cases have   been isolated at the base hospital and two suspicious cases have been discovered in the suburbs. In the city four additonal cases were reported last night and two this morning. Another death is reported at Leonora.
Yesterday was an unfavourable day for influenza patients. It was dull in the early morning, with light intermittent showers and just a little sunshine.
With the addition of 123 more notices yesterday, the notifications received at the City Council Chambers were increased to 1397. The fresh cases notified covered the period from yesterday week until Sunday last.
Thirty-eight was announced yesterday as the toll of the epidemic tn Rockhampton. These figures were obtained from the undertakers, in the absence of complete information from the Registrar, who has so far received only a very small number of the certificates of death from influenza; but from both sources yesterday, as well as from other quarters, figures were collated, showing that the actual number of deaths in Rockhampton directly attributed to influenza in May and June was fifty-four, including seven yesterday. Three of the victims yesterday passed away in the General Hospital, two in the Mater Misericordia Hospital, said two in tbeir homes. Their names are :- 
J. J. M'Evoy, Table Mountain, Boongary.
Mrs. Mary Ashton Caird, No. 173 Kent street. Rockhampton.
Henry William Edwards, Exhibition street, Rockhampton.
Cormack Ward, Weinholt-street, Rockhampton.
Thomas Swanson, Quay-street, off Wood-street, Rockhampton. 
John Thomas Hennegan, Gladstone Street, Rockhampton.
Ursula Ryan, corner of Talford and William streets, Rockhampton.
Mr. MCEvoy, who passed away in the Mater Misericordia Hospital after a hard fight against influenza, was one of Rockhampton's most estimable citizens and his death, though not unexpected, caused many expressions of genuine regret, which was intensified by the death of his wife, who was a sufferer from influenza in the same institution and whose funeral took place on Tuesday last, and the death of his brother, Mr. G. M'Evoy, last week. A young family of six is left to mourn the death of father and mother. Mr. McEvoy was a native of Rockhampton. He was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. G. McEvoy, who in the earlier days carried on dairying at Depot Hill, Rockhampton, but afterwards took up the country known as Table Mountain, Boongary, in which Mr. J. J. McEvoy was interested at the time of his death, as well as in Goowarra and other properties, following grazing pursuits for some years. Mr. McEvoy, however, was a man who had "a lot of irons in the fire and kept them warm for a good many years." For a considerable time he supplied milling and mining timber to the Mount Morgan Gold-mining Company, employing fully sixty hands on the work. Mr. M'Evoy devoted a good deal of time to public duties, notably in connection with the Rockhampton Harbour Board, the Fitzroy Shire Council, the Rockhampton Agricultural Society, the Rockhampton and District Co-operative Dairy Company, and the Rockhampton Jockey Club, and interested himself in many movements for the welfare of the town. A few years ago he was obliged to relinquish   public life owing to a breakdown in health; but when he had regained his strength he resumed his interest in it, though, perhaps, not to the same extent. From the time of its inception Mr. McEvoy has been associated with the Co-operative Dairy Company, being a share- holder throughout and a director for serveral years. The Agricultural Society often had his valuable experience gratuitously as a judge at its shows in the horse section, in which he himself had been often an exhibitor. An excellent judge and a keen admirer of a good horse, Mr. McEvoy at one time entered horses for the race meetings of the Rockhampton Jockey Club, and he was admittedly one of the club's best judges. Mr. McEvoy was honenrable to a degree, and was held in the   highest respect by all sections of the community. His funeral will leave St. Joseph's Cathedral at four o'clock this afternoon."

The Western Champion and General Advertiser for the Central-Western Districts (Barcaldine, Qld) - Saturday 4 October 1919 - News
"Sad memories were recalled in the Supreme Court yesterday when an application under the will of John McEvoy, late of Boongary, came before Judge Lukin. It is stated that McEvoy, who died on June 11th last, made a will in September, 1918, appointing his brother George McEvoy sole executor, and his wife Ellen Agnes McEvoy sole beneficiary. Both predeceased him, the former on June 5th, and the latter on June 7th, both succumbing to pneumonic-influenza.
