Dear List, I am researching the above names in the Wilcannia, Menindee and Cobar areas has anyone any information on these families. REGARDS ROSLYN NSW

Chris, Sorry cannot give you anything definite to go on but if you check this site http://helplist.org/aus/index.shtml#Wales and find someone that can do some look ups on BDM 1889-1918 and Between The Wars CD's they may find something......I found these on BDM on line and perhaps SKS on the above site maybe able to tell you where these Births/Deaths occurred and you can work out whether they are connected. Death 6117/1923 Eliza A Derrick Father George Mother Elizabeth Birth 10577/1898 Lily M L Derrick Father John Mother Eliza Birth 29166/1896 Lilian Derrick Father John Mother Eliza Death 12949/1896 Lilian Derrick Father John Mother Eliza Birth 7257/1894 Susannah J Derrick Father John Mother Eliza Is there a possibility that he went to war ? Check Australia War Memorial Site, you never know. I had a missing person and I eventually found him in a grave in France !! Hope this is of some help... GLGH regards Jennifer

Hi List, Jac and I have been beavering away adding properties to the NSW-West home page at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~surreal/NSWW/ and a hotels page has also been added. But what I would really like to know, is what are some of the good books about the area? Is there a history of Wilcannia? Or Pooncarie? Then I can chase them up through interlibrary loan. All suggestions welcome, and I will put them on the reading page. Makes much better content than the Gippsland one I have there as an example. So feel free to nominate books on the area that you like/have used to the list. Cheers Linda Barraclough Briagolong, Victoria, Australia e-mail [email protected] Listowner AUS-NSW-WEST

Hi List, Just to say I have been having a lovely time in http://www.nla.gov.au/servlet/imagesearch which is really a search engine that includes the PICMAN database from the State Library of NSW. It has the most loveliest sets of photos of Wilcannia and White Cliffs, and probably heaps of other places. Heaps and heaps of Paddle Steamers and barges, some very clear. Lots of nice buildings, camels etc. Just type in your town and go for it. Must go and see what I can find for Brewarrina. Cheers Linda Barraclough Briagolong, Victoria, Australia List Owner: AUS-NSW-WEST email: [email protected] http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~surreal/NSWW/
