Licencee Peter O'Reilly
Peter O'Reilly (1889-1952) was the licencee of the Carrollee Hotel, Kingaroy for approximately 4 months[2]. In his resume of hotels, Peter lists the Carrollee between his 1926 licence at the Metropolitan Hotel, Maryborough and the 1927 licence at the Mellum Club Hotel, Landsborough.
The succession of licencees at this time would likely be, John Francis Conroy, Peter O'Reilly to Peter Paul O'Brien.
J. F. Conroy applied to be the transferee of The Grand Hotel, Cairns on 20 January 1927.[3]
In February of 1927, the Licensing Court approved an application by Peter O'Reilly of the Carrollee Hotel for leave of absence till May of 1927 and that Peter Paul O'Brien was being left in charge for that period.[4]

Conroy.[5]and preceeded Peter O'Reilly as licencee of the Commercial Hotel, Eumundi. A Mr. H. Lingard is reported as having quite recently taken over the licence as of 29 November 1928.[6] In April 1929, it was reported that Mr. J. Donovan of the Carrollee Hotel, has disposed of the lease, licence, and goodwill , to Mr. Watts.
