    Obituary, Brisbane Courier, 30 Dec 1905:
    The Post and Telegraph Department have lost an old and popular officer by the death of Mr Edwin Da Costa, late post and telegraph master at Townsville, who died on the 24th instant after a long and painful illness. Mr Da Costa was born in Jamaica, and after receiving an education in England, France, and Germany left for Australia on the sailing ship Southampton, arriving in Victoria in 1859. After two years on the Murray River Downs obtaining "colonial experience," he came to Queensland, and entered into squatting pursuits. In 1865 he gave up station life and entered the service of the Postal Department at Brisbane. Three years later he was appointed postmaster at Dalby where he remained for eleven years being transferred as postmaster to Rockhampton in 1879. After six years' service in Rockhampton he was appointed to Townsville, and remained there until superannuated in July of the present year. At the time of his retirement he was senior post and telegraph master in the service of the Commonwealth.
