Peter Hendrie
York/Montreal/Indiana

Born in North Berwick in 1872, Peter Hendrie caddied there as a boy before obtaining his first professional position at the York club in 1897. He returned to North Berwick in 1900 and worked as a clubmaker.

In 1902 he emigrated to Canada with his wife and took up the professional’s post at the Victoria Golf and Country Club in Montréal and at that city’s Westmount club in 1906.

He moved south to the United States in 1911, becoming professional at the Fort Mitchell Country Club in Kentucky before going to the Arsenal Island Golf Club on Rock Island in the Mississippi river in Illinois in 1914. 1918 saw a move to another municipal club, the Riverside Golf Club in Indianapolis.

In 1924 he was appointed the first professional at the new Ulen Country Club in Lebanon, Indiana, where he remained until his retirement in 1946.
