2. Re: MOORE --Edward John [1]
Hello Wal. This placename should probably be GREENWELL POINT. We attended a reunion last weekend for many of us who used to live there. Do you know if he lived at Greenwell Point, or if he might just have been visiting? Do you know what his trade or profession was? There is a brief history of Greenwell Point, which was published in 1988 for Australia's bi-centennial. Sadly, it does NOT have an index. regards: ray ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wal Browning" To:

Hi Mal, I would be very interested in information about the activities of Thomas O'Rourke, especially around Cooma and at Bolairo. Have you checked Perkins Papers, if not get someone at the Cooma Historical Society to do a look-up for you. You are probably aware that 'Back to Cooma' has an article and photo of his son David O'Rourke.

7. Re: Cptn Towns [1]
Dear Julie and all, Capt Robert Towns (1794- 1873) after whom Townsville was named had an estate called Peterborough at Shellharbour near Wollongong. He made many voyages to NSW from 1826. In 1833 in Sydney he married Sophia, the half-sister of W.C. Wentworth. In 1843 he decided to settle in NSW. From Sydney he established a trading and whaling empire around the world. In the 1840s he and Caroline Chisholm recruited many free immigrants as tenatns for his Peterborough estate. In the 1860s he took up vast in

11. Re: Cptn Towns [1]
Julie I'm afraid you may be disappointed at this line of enquiry. Captain Towns did not actually live in Shellharbour or on the Peterborough Estate. If you check further into the shipping records of the "Neptune" I believe you will find a carpenter named George Knight and another builder called William Dumbrell who were also engaged by Towns for a project in the Wollongong area. The purpose may have been for construction of what was known as the "Lake House" or Peterborough House which was occupied by Towns

14. Re: History of Cobargo [1]
Hi Chris, I am of the belief that the South Coast was renown for coastal boating activites such as fishing, whaling and the sagas of Ben Boyd, who made, as I understand it, many, many trips up and down the coast of NSW - but was primarily based in Eden. Tilba just north of Cobargo is renown for farming and cheese making and some gold mining. The area was settled in the late 1820s when a number of graziers moved stock into the district. By the 1830s the Imlay brothers had substantial holdings. It wasn't un

16. Candelo - Nadin/Darragh Families [1]
Dear Listers I am new to the List and need help. I am writing the story of my g.grandfather, John Nadin, who settled in Candelo in 1855. His family married into the Darragh family who also had settled there. However, most of their children and their families moved to the Richmond River Distrist at the end of the 18th centuary and early in the nineteenth. Can any one help with details of the drought years that forced them to leave. Also, the typhoid that swept throught the area in the 1890's ?? Joann

22. Captain Towns [1]
You're right Lorraine, I am disappointed, just when I thought I was on a roll! Never mind. However, I do have a few avenues to explore thanks to all those on the list who replied. I do have another question someone may be able to answer. I found information which states that in 1837 the Captain brought out 14 Scottish families. Does anyone know the names of these families or the ship they came out on? Regards Julie
23. Re: Cptn Towns [1]
Your Captain Towns could be the one that Townsville is named after and he is likely to be in the Australian Dictionary of Biography.
