I am hoping someone will be able to tell me a little about a property of this name which was/is located near Ashford, NSW. My great-grandfather, who worked as a carrier in the 1920s, regularly made the trip from Texas to Inverell, via Frazer's (?) Creek, and used to purchase wine from this property. Related to this, is Frazer's Creek (am unsure of the spelling) a property, a locality ... ? Was it a popular 'stopping point' for travellers in those days? Thanks, in anticipation. Lisa Gladstone, Q
