    3. This notice is for those of you who may have had ancestry that arrived in Australia via the sailing ship 'Utopia' on November 6, 1862 in the area of Keppel Bay, Queensland, later arriving in Rockhampton on November 11, 1862 on board the Boomerang. Fifty years later, in 1912, a photo was taken of a small group gathered to celebrate their arrival in Queensland on the 'Utopia'. To see this photo, read a brief history of the ship, the 'lead-up' to the Utopia's arrival, and a summary of the "50 year Celebrations", please go to the following site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~auscqfha/Utopia.htm If you can identify an ancestor or have a photo of a former 'Utopian' passenger or know of a family story that involved this trip, please write me at my web site, which is saconaghan@bigpond.com Thank you for your time.
