Assuming Bell Street is the one at Kangaroo Point, then it's close to South Brisbane Cemetery - both on the inner south side, a couple of suburbs apart.

Hello I am a Canberra-based Master of Arts (Art History and Curatorship) student currently enrolled in the thesis component of my course at the Australian National University. My topic is to investigate the incidence of post-mortem photographic portraiture and related issues in Victorian-era Australia. I am wondering if you might know of any appropriate images or have any text-based information about the subjects, their deaths, their families, the photographers, the studios, or any relevant information about the social contexts within which they were produced. Thank you for your time, Shelley Clarke

Hello Listers, You may be interested to know about a new research interests list for the Brisbane area recently launched by ourbrisbane.com. Called the "Early Brisbane Surname Register", you can search the list or enter the names of any of your ancestors who settled in Brisbane prior to 1905. To protect the privacy and the email address of the person who posted the listing, if you want to correspond with the poster, you will need to register with ourbrisbane.com (it's free) and the advantage is that you get a free email address to boot. The site also has links to other local resources. http://www.ourbrisbane.com/inbrief/history/genealogy.htm Cheers Robyn

The recent D-Day anniversary weekend was marked in a small French town, on the Brittany coast, by remembrance commemorations of the allied airmen who lost their lives in that area. There are three crews, one Aussie one British and one Polish. I am connected to the British crew, but have been assisting the Museum at Quiberon with research into the lives of all these airmen. The Australian crew comprised four chaps from the Brisbane area. May I please use this list to post their names and I would welcome contact with any fellow lister who might be able to offer a trace on surviving family - or even been related. They are: Albert HOWARD born Bundaberg, of Queens Road Taringa a teacher, husband of Jean Colin LOWIS born Ipswich, of Lowry Street North Ipswich a labourer, son of Charles and Annie Athole MacLEOD born Bundaberg, son of William and Olive They are missing with no known grave. The other member of the crew was a Thomas HOBGEN of Toowong, buried at Quiberon, who has been successfully researched.

Des, Interment.net has a page for Emu Creek cemetery (Crow's Nest Shire) http://www.interment.net/data/aus/qld/crowsnest/emucreek/emu.htm These transcriptions by Janice Nightingale include DUFF, Michael P, d. 3/3/1925, age: 6yr, My dear son Name and age seem to fit, don't know about the place though. I *think* Crow's Nest is the next shire to east of Dalby. Cheers Steve Des Skelly wrote: >If any lister has acccess to Qld death records circa 1918.
