Hi Lynne, My name is Leah Armstrong and I am a descendant from Queen Margaret from the Awabakul Clan from Lake Macquarie. Did you know that Armidale University has a lot of info, you could try there, also that the tribes from Scone are all at Armidale. I haven't been able to get there myself, I am lucky my sisters Nola & Kerrie are helping me. It takes a lot of time effort and a bit of frustration, but always go over your notes, always have a note pad with you, put the date and where you received your information, when doing family research it is always a good idea to join you local Society or Group, as they have seminars and the speakers are great. I get carried away sometimes, I write stories and can never keep them short. I belong to The Caravan Club of Australia, another way to go walkabout. Hope I have helped in a small way. Take Care God Bless Princess Leah -----Original Message----- From: Lynne West <lynne_west@hotmail.com> To: AUS-KOORI-L@rootsweb.com <AUS-KOORI-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Wednesday, 17 January 2001 6:19 Subject: Re: [AUS-Koori] mary hogan > >I reckon there's a lot of us!
