Hi Ada,

I've been following the discussion on the DPS list and it's definitely an
interesting one. I'm happy to collect any data contributed from members of
this list and pass it on to you.

I'll also dig through some of the info I found when writing "Golden Thread
of Care: A History of the Bellarine Peninsula Community Health Service" -
from memory I found a few relevant bits there.

Do you have a timeframe / cut-off point - i.e. did you want to concentrate
on 1800s or include 1900s etc.?

Regards ......... Susie Z
