A mamoth task, thank you. This is just a basic question and I am not
requesting a look up as it is out of the Vic Ne area.
Does this book cover Melbourne and suburbs?
Thanks Denise
Hello Pat;
I'm afraid I can't help you with the KEMP's, but I have also copied your
e-mail to somebody who can perhaps help with the WALKER connection in
Bright.
Kind regards

Hi listers;
Below is part 3, but first just a gentle reminder.
The first three editions will be those names I have researched and have
typed up text which can be sent via email. At some stage later I will
include a list of those names I have handwritten information on - these are
considerable, but would have to be sent snail mail.
Could I also advise my area of interest has been in a box roughly drawn
from Wangaratta to Omeo, up to Corryong, across West to Albury/Wodonga, and

G'day Folks,
I agree with Robert - nothing to do with clay pigeon shooting - a shot tower
was used to make lead shot - molten lead was poured through a sieve at the
top of the tower and falling into water to quickly cool the "round" pieces
of shot at the bottom of the tower. And yes - Melbourne Central shopping
complex is built around a brick shot tower. Sorry - don't know what towns
might have had a shot tower but one would presume it wouldn't have been too
far away from some lead mines!
Regards .....

Hello Melinda,
Butler's Wood's Point and Gippsland General Directory 1866 gives the
following info:
In the alphabetical section it says -
"Morgan, S.D.Ralph, mining agent, facing the Goulburn, Wood's Point"
And then in the Wood's Point section under Properties facing the Goulburn
River (right hand branch), he gets another mention -
"Morgan,R.S.D., manager, residence".
And next to him is the office for some 10 mining companies with the
following entry
"Office of the No. 1 East All Nations G. M. Co. (r
Hello Irene,
Most family history groups have a copy of Victorian inquests (on fiche)
which is sorted by year. If you call into your local FHG, have a look at
the fiche, and get a reference number.
Faye Guthrie (from the AIGS) has a page on how to get a copy of the actual
inquest. Have a look at her page

Linda. I have discovered some further information. This is not what I
originally read (from a Kelly book I feel which has long gone back to the
library). What I found today were references in my gg's scrap book.
There was a reference to A.W. Foster on several occasions, and also a
Hello to All,
I would like to add my offer to Peter's - I have a list of all the
landowners in the Parish of Youarang from 1875-1930, this includes the name
of the occupier if this was different to the owner. I also have portions of
the landowners map of the Parish of Tharanbegga ie. land selections
surrounding the town of Tungamah - this is about 1925.
If anyone has rellies that they think might have been in the area, I can be

Hi Barry
I asked hubby about that. He is a little fuzzy on the niceties, but says
that, in the old days, when lead pellets were used as amunition, hot lead
was dropped from the tower into different depths of water. The lead would
break up into pellets of different size according to the depth of the
water. There is a shot tower incorporated into the Daimaru bu

The site can be very awkward to navigate. One clicks on a link, and it
seems to just refresh. But if you then scroll down, there is different info

WATER AT CHILTERN
Now that the drought has broken and there seems every prospect of a
continuance of rain, the Chiltern lake is in a fair way of again being
filled.
Seeing the incalculable benefit of the lake to the inhabitants during the
scarcity of water, the Shire Council should deepen and enlarge the lake so
that they may be prepared for any future drought.
The water which overflows the bywash instead of being allowed to run to
waste as hitherto, might at a very tr

The Foster you saw me enquire about is not actually a family member. I am
endeavouring to get a few grey areas / facts straightened out for my story
on my gg. Co-incidentally my ggrandmother was a Foster, from America, but

the Foster I was enquiry about. Sorry, I can't help you out with this one
Good luck.
