  154. ^ Faber Est, No.45, February 1997. Note that there is a discrepancy, with claims on Row's Wikipedia entry that he went to Sydney Boys High, although, notably, this claim is not sourced. The claim for Row being a Fortian comes from a 1904 pamphlet "Fort Street Model School Football Club 1904", in Mitchell Library, Sydney, ref 796.33/101
