Merro lived at Heathcote & created the Heathcote Bushwhackers with Jack Barrie & Brian Loughlin to sing Australian songs for a social evening. By Dec 53 when the Bushwhackers appeared in 'Reedy River' Chris Kempster & Harry Kay were members. By the time the show finished cast members Cec Grivas, Alex Hood & Alan Scott had joined them.
