BlankI am looking for anyone who may know any stories about Cowl Cowl near Hilston NSW, in particular Dry Lake. G Grandmother - Maud Alice Clark(e) G grandfather - Herbert Henry Horn(e) Grandmother - Lorna Mary Theresa Horne (aka Green) Grandfather - Kenneth Victor Rudd Maud had three daughters with Horne then married a Charles Green even though Horne wasn't dead and marriage wasn't dissolved. Eventually settled near Newcastle. Maud apparantly was really upset about Lorna marrying Kenneth but this is understandable as his ancestors were convicts and settled/established Howlong Station (Carrathool). Beth

BlankHi everyone. I have been away for a while - figuratively and literally. My mother died at the beginning of November after a lengthy illness. Why don't we, as a group, apply for some government funding to publish some of the stories and results of research? Anyone interested? Beth

Hi. I have uncovered an old photo of a Dorrie Ingram taken at the Sandhills Narrandera on 28/12/1943. Might this help someone in the research? Regards, Beth

Dear all, This is Adrian, Merryl's son, some weird things have been happeneing with my mom's e-mail and recently, I got a message sent by my mom in my inbox, when its attachment was scanned, it was found to have a virus....do not, i repeat DO NOT download anything sent by this e-mail address unless you check with her first and do not download anything that ends in ".exe", ".com", or ".pfi". To those who use outlook express as does my mom, if u get an e-mail with an attachement, run a virus scan immdeiately because outlook automatically opens these files. I hope none of you are infected and I hope all goes well, -adrian Mulroney

There is an index called the AGCI (Australasian Genealogical Computer Index), produced by the Society of Australian Genealogists, which contains large numbers of entries from parish registers, especially burials, and also cemetery records. These all give the exact date of the event. The index has been released on microfiche and is available at the Society as well as the State Library of NSW. Many family history societies and libraries may have a copy as well. Another index that gives exact dates is the NSW Probate Index, 1800-1985, which lists deceased people whose estates went through probate, whether or not they left a will. This has also been released on microfiche. Hope this helps. Beryl M.

Hi, I'm still looking for Corrigan and Ellis family members, from western Queensland. I'd also like to ask if any one knows if there are indexes for NSW that give the full date rather than just the year of a Birth Death or Marriage. Thanks Toni Gall

Hi to everyone on the list, I found an interesting site for those of you looking for more information on Aboriginals all over Australia. Families are listed as is information state by state. This site is worth bookmarking so go and have a look http://www.standard.net.au/~jwilliams/native.htm Cheers, Robynne

There contact no is 1800 624 332, Paul O'Connor is the best person there to assist with family tree matters. The organisation is not funded speficically to assist with family trees but provide assistance as far as other places to search etc rather than searching on a persons behalf.
