Hi there Fellow Listers,
Just wondering if anyone is going into the PROV in Melbourne tomorrow that
would be able to check a microfiche for me. I am trying to find out the
street number of the house that my great grandmother and grandmother lived
at in 1921. I know that the street name is Wawunna Road in Horsham. The
names are Katie Ethel Baker who married John Wesley Watts who both listed
their usual address as Wawunna Road Horsham on their marriage certificate.
They are my grandparents. Katie Lacey nee Baker nee Ackland is my Great
Grandmother and she was married to Thos Lacey in 1919 and I believe it was
their home that they were all living in at the time of the wedding. So the
names could be Lacey, Baker or Watts that will be listed for this address
that I am after.
I am not sure how the listings are done, but I asked the PROV staff today
and they say that the microfilm/fiche is a permanent stock at the office in
the city.
I have been trying to organise to go to the historical society in Horsham
since January but as they are only open on a Tuesday I have not made it yet.
I was supposed to be going to Horsham tomorrow and that was going to be my
chance to look up what they had, but I am now working tomorrow and will not
get to Horsham till Wednesday so will not be there when the office is open.
Apart from having three very active children and an interstate visitor with
me.
Would be eternally grateful if someone can see their way to doing this for
me.
Will be visiting the Horsham cemetery if anyone wants something checked on
while I am there, email me, as much details as possible, by tomorrow
afternoon and I will see what I can do for you.
