Hello, I have just subscribed to this list & am surprised at how quiet it is. Can anyone help me, I am trying to trace a great aunt who moved to the Narromine area about 1916 - 1918. Her name was Evelyn & she married Adolphus Supple in 1916 & I know they did not have children. Family members seem to think she may have been widowed & married ? Taylor. I also think she died prior to 1974. Hoping someone may be able to assist. Elaine, Melbourne.

I expect this will be news on every list, and while I do not generally encourage postings of websites to the list, this one is a beauty. The WWII Army, Navy and Airforce enlistments are now on line, and seem to search very quickly (but may not when everyone knows about it!) The beauty of this is that you can even put in a place and get all who were born there, who lived there when they enlisted and who enlisted there. One minor thing to get used to is that it returns different lists for, for example, Smithtown and Smithtown, NSW, and there are different lists for each of the three place categories. So you need to check them all. Very nice roll, as you get date of birth etc. Worth a check http://www.ww2roll.gov.au Cheers Linda

A new genealogy group for genealogy research is now available. It is available thru yahoo groups. The address of the group's home page is http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/Gene_Aus/ . You will need to join yahoo first, to then join this group. The group was started less that 1 month ago and currently has 61 members. 100 messages have been posted to the group in less then 1 month.There are over 39 surnames recorded in the groups surname database. A group like yahoo groups, or MSM groups, has some advantages over mailing lists like this one. The advantages are as follows: *There is a no-mail facility. You can read emails from the group online on the main group page so that your email inbox is not clogged up. From this same main page, you can access all the features of the group, which is something you can not do from emails that are downloaded into your inbox. Of course you can also get digest and single mode emails from the group, if you wish. One of the benefits of having a no-mail facility and reading the emails through the group's main page is that you do not spend time and money downloading emails that are not of interest to you, and the risk of receiving a computer virus is minimised. * Groups have a chat facility within them where members can chat with other online members. This saves emailing back and forward when you have made contact with someone. Just arrange to chat with them at a set time and its real-time. It is hoped that this group will also have regular set chat topics where members can contribute and gain information from others. Real-time ! * Databases can be created within the group's main page. This group has a surname database for surname interests, where members can permanently log their surname interests for others to see. This saves you having to periodically send emails with your surname interests just to 'catch' new members. Any member can add a database within the group. * Groups have a bookmarks facility, whereby members can add links to websites that they have found interesting. How many times do you see people sending emails to a ,ailing list saying ".....I have lost the link to Australian and New Zealand passengers list page when my computer crashed - Does any one know the link?....." When you lose your own personal bookmarks, or just can't remember then, you can access the groups ones. * Groups allow you to upload files and photos, so you could upload a copy of your gedcom file (or any file) if you wanted to, for others to download. On one list I subscribe to some person had transcribed parts of a BDM register and posted it to the list for all to use if they wanted. It was posted in sections over 3 weeks. This meant that for 3 weeks the list had huge emails to download and view. It also meant that the person who had supplied the information had to physically send the various sections each day for 3 weeks. By using the files facility within the group, she could have uploaded the entire file in one hit and sent one email to group advising them that is was there. Those that were interested could access the file. A much better solution all 'round, I feel. Regards, MF

Thanks for replies to my puzzle over Elizabeth JOYCE, nee PURSS. bc 1854/55. It was tricky to keep it short but include the things I've already discounted. Yes, there was an Emily Emma born 1854 to the family in question, but I have details of her marriage, children, & early death (1880), - so she's not my Elizabeth. Wiliam & Elizabeth Ann also an "unnamed female" born in 1857, which my cousin had found 30 years ago, & assumed to be Elizabeth. But she was "Mary J", who died as an infant. There are a couple of theories I have - maybe Elizabeth was actually born to her aunt Rosalind, who became a widow soon after, & baby was taken in by family? That's why I think William & Eliz A's death notices may be the best shot at including unusual relationships. Cheers, Megan

Hi Pat I don't have any information on Eurominda Station other than my 'JONES' ancestor worked there as a drayman in the mid 1840's with several of his children listed as being born there. They moved into Dubbo at a later date and of course I am still trying to trace them there. Maggi maggi14au@iinet.net.au Perth Western Australia see my Family Names at http://www.wags.org.au/mid/8134.htm I do not accept emails with attachments from anyone without prior knowledge . Hi All Have been searching for ancestors in the Dubbo area and wonder if anyone can tell me if the Overland Hotel at Mudgee is still there and if there is any way I might be able to trace the name of the innkeeper about 1873. Searching for gggrandfather WILLIAMS, daughter Elizabeth or Catherine Elizabeth. Also if anyone has knowledge of Euromedah Station, Macquarie River, via Dubbo which existed in 1873. I have ancestors who lived in Inverell and Armidale about 1870 and am wondering if this is in the area of AUS-NSW-CENTRAL or if there is a similar website to this for that area? Re: FARRELL. I also had difficulty tracing arrival of ancestors in Australia. While holidaying in Gerringong I visited the Heritage Library at Kiama and 'bingo first shot' with one lot, who arrived in 1841 under the Bounty Scheme. Don't know if they do research at the library for you, but the helpers, gentleman in charge and volunteers, were great and full of knowledge about where and what to search and produced necessary tapes etc. for me. There may be a Heritage Library in your area? Worth a check. If not may be worth a telephone call to Kiama to check on services etc. Hope this is of some help.

Hi list I am researching James Alexander MUNRO bn 1862 Bathurst to pts Lachlan James Munro & Mary Ann Dillon. James married Sarah Ann Flannery 1887 Bourke. James died 1934 Narromine. Sarah died 1942 Third Avenue, Narromine as stated on her death certificate, not sure if this was her residence or a hospital. James & Sarah had eight children. One daughter being Alma (I wonder if she was named after the farm or the farm after her) Some of his occupations were teamster,carrier,drover,pub bouncer,farm manager,ranger & boarding house keeper. He had two small farms in Narromine "Pinevale" & "Alma Vale" Not sure if he owned these farms or just managed them. I would love to hear from anyone connected to the Stewart family or anyone who might know something about the farms.
