Noel J.C. McCombe was Fremantle Town Clerk 19471966. McCombe Avenue, Samson, which curves around Samson Reserve between South Street and Winterfold Road was very likely named to honour him.

Campbell 2019:[1]

Noel McCombe was a strong bulldog of a man who often brought with him to work his associate - a large boxer dog named Buster - who sat bolt upright in the front seat of the car. On the way home on Fridays it was said to be difficult to be certain who was actually driving, Noel or Buster.
