Dear Daryl and Beryl,
What a wonderful lot of information on these pages and very
well constructed - full of information. CONGRATULATIONS.
There is a full run down of all things Henty, enough for any
Henty researcher.

There is also a little information on the Henty family and it's links with
the
McCrae, Cobham, Synnot, Manifold and even Lawrence families from
those early times on page 39 of second part of
'Mariners Merchants...then Pioneers' of which you have a copy.

So many of the Western district pioneers forged links through one or the
other of their families, while many came from Tasmania to seek more
extensive pastures.. appreciate all your hard work...
