    1. [NSW-W] For the interest of Listers.
    2. Hi Listers, During the research into my g.grandfather John Little's movements in Western N.S.W.I checked many electoral rolls. John Little held the freehold on "Curraweena Station" between 1882 - 91. Curraweena was a property of 170,000 acres situated midway between Bourke and Cobar. The following are the names of voters registered at Curraweena for the period 1881 - 82 : John Hicks, Peter Hutton, Martin & Augustus Lucas, John McLaren, John McIntyre (held the freehold), Andrew McIntyre, James & Donald Matherson, Henry Phillips (held the leasehold of the Curraweena Hotel), Reinalt Williams. The period 1892 - 93 : Charles White, Henry Boan, Noah R. Boss, Edward B. Burke, Alexander Cox, William Deignan (leasehold Curraweena Hotel), Patrick McNamara, George & John O'Brien, Hector McNab ( resident of Curraweena Hotel). >From 1891 - 94 John Little held the freehold to "Glen - Arif" station, a property of 800,000 acres situated between Nyngan and Bourke ( near Coolibah). The voters registered at Glen Arif during 1892 - 93 were :Francis Cassidy, Henry & James Kilpatrick James L'Estrange, Thomas Leigh, Arthur & John Lefoe,Henry Mills, William Monaghan, Thomas Nevin, William Roberts, Alfred Siddons, Arthur Tindall, John Turner. Perhaps some of these names may have some historical significance to listers. Regards Lins.
