Hello Listers When James TEYS married Rebecca OLDFIELD in 1859, he was leasing Boonanger in the Warialda district. Six of his children were born there Margaret Australia 1860 David August 1861 James Rowland 1863 Alexander 1865 Arthur Ernest 1868 Hilton May 1870 Margaret died and was buried there in1863.By 1872 the family had left there and were living at Yarraman on the Liverpool Plain where Wilfred John was born. Family lore has it that James feared for the safety of his family"as the natives were troublesome". Two more children were born at The Flags which may have had an inn on the property. Walter Charles 1876, reistered Tamworth Amy Emily 1878, registered Gunnedah Other properties that James supposedly owned or leased were Burgurah,Waroo,Thurrajai, Thromby, Massai,Bryon and Bunmo. Does anyone know if these properties still exist and where they are? How do I go about finding out when James held the leases, given that I live in Queensland?. The thing I particularly like to find out is if Margaret Australia's grave is still on Boonanger station. Many thanks Jan Ward
