Hi All
I've had a few comments about how quiet the List is of late. So for those (like me) who enjoy being noisy, I've stolen an idea from Beth Codling on the Western District List. Feel free to list the towns of the North West that you connect with and why. We may not share ancestors, but we may share local history, who knows?
Some of my German ancestors settled iin RAINBOW. My gg grandmother is buried in the cemetery there. Names are HAAR and LIESFIELD and RUSSACK.
Some of my English ancestors settled in KIATA and SALISBURY near Nhill. Names BATESON, MCPHEE, STRACHAN, HAAR, WALTON, CAMM. Josiah BATESON had a hotel in KIATA as well as being a farmer. He was a cousin of Lyn Bateson's Elias BATESON at nearby Miram Piram.
Over to you.
