      History

      The Bunbury Lumpers' Union of Workers was established on 12 February 1899 and registered on 18 October 1901 as a trade union. Its members voted to join the Waterside Workers' Federation in July 1902 but it withdrew its affiliation in 1908. In January 1915 the union accepted the rules of the Waterside Workers' Federation but continued to refer to itself as the Bunbury Lumpers' Union for some years later.
