Werona Cemetery is still very much there, we visited it a couple of weekends ago. I think the sign on the front called it the Franklin South & Werona Cemetery, thought it is also referred to as the Campbelltown East and Werona Cemetery but I know it is definitely called something else as well as Werona. My Pickering's and other family members are buried there. It is a beautifully maintained cemetery, and very easy to find headstones. Though the records were lost in a bushfire, I think in the 1950's.

Carol, Can you tell me anything about your Henry MILLER's ancestors. Have lost a Henry b. c1866 at Emerald Hill, VIC. Parents Charles & Hannah MILLER. Last heard of in the 1880's in Adelaide but seems to have moved on from there? He had a younger brother, Albert Ernest MILLER, b.1872, at Yarrawonga so he could be in that northern area, Jenny ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol " <mayalli@optushome.com.au> To: <AUS-MELBOURNE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, March 09, 2006 10:19 PM Subject: [AUS-MELB] Looking For Help >I have an Ancestor Henry Miller, who sometime between 1918 and 1934 had a > vineyard in or near Red Cliffs, near Mildura, he had a house on the > property > that was burnt down.

Thanks for that Gladys, I haven't read the book, so will keep the name of it for my list of things to do!! I'm relatively new at all this, so still lots to do! Yeh, I bet there were lots of people lining up. I think I read that it went to a Jennings line in the USA. We were supposedly related to Sarah Jennings (Queen Anne's lady-in-waiting, etc). Mum's great aunty Pearl told mum that Pearl's aunty Laeitia (nee Jennings) had all the documentation, even back as far as the Plantagenet's!!! This great great great aunt of mine told Pearl that Sarah Jennings was a 'b---h' and apparently a lesbian (which seems to be widely hinted at in many books now) ... I've read a book about Sarah. Unfortunately no info has turned up. I've come across one of Laetitia's descendents but there seems to have been a big rift and secretive in that branch. Pearl had mention Marlboro House, did that go to the correct descendents do you know? I'm starting to learn a lot more about history as a result of researching the family's history. It's so darn interesting! Wish I had time to delve into it more. warm regards, Lyn in NSW -------------- Message---------------- From: Gladys Koetsveld [mailto:muscat55@bigpond.com] Sent: Monday, 6 March 2006 2:22 PM Subject: another inheritance thing! Hi Lynn What a queue they would have joined. My GGG Grandfather Thomas Jennings left Melbourne in 1843 and spent £36,000 trying to prove he was an heir, unsuccessfully. His father had an older brother anyway so I don't know how he thought he should have been in the queue. Have you read Bleak House by Charles Dickens? It is based loosely on 'The Great Jennens Case' The guy who received the bulk of it was from the wrong branch of the family and was illegitimate, as was later discovered. So there were more court cases. I think it was proved that it had gone to the wrong person, but as there was no money left by then, (it was supposed to have been in trust), it was all rather pointless, unless you were a solicitor.
