Nice idea, Beryl.

All my connection to the North-West centres on Birchip 1890 to 1910.

Names are McDONALD, WILKINSON, & MATTHEWS.

Cheers,

(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?
