I would presume this is the father of Les Aitken who lived across the road from my family at Tullimbar until the early 1970s. Les Aitken died in the late 1980s at Tamworth. I remember a picture on the wall of "old Mr Aitken" in front of the pyramids (Egypt) in uniform of the Lighthorse. I think he was riding a camel. Two daughters of Les still live in the area Margaret (Mrs Noel) Taylor in Taylor Rd Albion Park or thereabouts and Jeanette Jolliffe. I also went to school with Linda Aitken whose family lived in Flinders St Albion Park and they were related. >> >Lorraine >-- > >viv@zipworld.com.au >Wollongong NSW >http://www.zip.com.au/~viv >AUS-NSW-SE Mailing List http://www.zip.com.au/~viv/aus-nsw-se.htm > > >==== AUS-NSW-SE Mailing List ==== >AUS-NSW-SE pages - http://www.zip.com.au/~viv/aus-nsw-se.htm >
