Just a thought that might help with your search or you might have already done it but ask for a copy (might cost you though) of the burials from the burial book which is usually held at the local post office, it usually goes back quite a few years and check both names of your great grandmother and her spouse as they may be in there and sometimes these books also record reason for death. During this search you may find the names of stations in the area that are no longer but may open up something new for you to search for also siblings of your great grandmother as well.

Just how many is too many? Ive been away for a month and it is good to see that there are other people out there asking and replying more often.You can be delightfully surprised every now and again reading a list and find answers to questions you just havent asked yet,and clues come up in answers people give to others. So keep them all coming Pleeeessee.By the way,my family is getting darker the more clues I pick up as I go along.

could you please tell me how to find the Tassie list? ----- Original Message ----- From: Pross Family To: AUS-KOORI-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, May 14, 2001 9:39 Subject: Re: [AUS-Koori] too many?

I fully agree Mike, I enjoy getting all the emails, through these postings I have been able to help a few others get in touch and share info with their rels. I think it is a great way of searching for our families and helping others in their search, so keep those emails rollong in. Anyone out there know of a Norman Sims who lived in the Dee Why area of NSW.? He would be about 77 by now. I would love to make contact, Norman went to school with my Mother and her sister, Phyllis & Thelma Peel of Narraweena. Any info would be great.

Dear Craig This is a late reply but your message was so thought provoking that I just had to email and thank you for it. I have just become a grandmother as of 14 May and it has made me so proud not only proud of the most beautiful baby on the face of this earth but of who I am and where I came from. We must never forget who we are and where we come from as to do this is to deny our ancestors who have lived though a holocaust of white destruction and who have fought for every breath that has been taken by each generation since. I am so proud to be aboriginal and to have the family that I have (good and bad) . To those of you who are tracing your aboriginal heritage keep trying as it is a privilege to belong a ancient culture such as ours and worth the time and effort.

Hi Karen Yes it was Jason Blacklock - infact there was a mention of him at the same time that I saw - maybe it was on TV I'm not sure. He was up that way I think for the ceramony and was going to raise money to help Abor. Kids. I will endeavour to get copy off tomorrow if I can. I'm also looking for rellies.

Hello Heather, Thank You so much, I would love to see it. I just rang my news agent, he told me he wouldn't be able to get a copy for me. So can I take you up on your very kind offer. I think the footballer is Jason BLACKLOCK I was told by a cousin that we are related to him, but I think he's only guessing, I like to have the proof. Again Thank you so much for getting back to me, and for your kind offer. If you give me your details I can send you a SAE.
