Hi Did your Petty's run a business in Queen St Brisbane around 1911 or so? My great-grandfather was a tailor and worked there but I don't know exactly what type of business it was just that I have a postcard addressed to him c/o Pettys Limited Queen Street, Brisbane Regards Helen -----Original Message----- From: aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of irook Sent: Wednesday, 7 January 2009 1:40 PM To: aus-qld-brisbane@rootsweb.com Subject: [AUS-QLD-BRISBANE] ROLL CALL Warrener, Petty My names are WARRENER ,Toowong and Childers and PETTY, Brisbane and Ormeau Toowoomba Dead Persons Society www.audps.com ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to AUS-QLD-BRISBANE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

In 1897 Grimes & Petty was a department store (which had a tailoring department). It was on the corner of Queen and Albert Sts. See here for an advertisement: http://ndpbeta.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/3648991 It is possible that later it was just Pettys, noting that Petty Limited was registered as a company in 1904, courtesy of Qld State Archives companies index: http://www.archives.qld.gov.au/research/index/company.asp Kerry -----Original Message----- From: aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Helen Smith Sent: Wednesday, 7 January 2009 9:56 PM To: aus-qld-brisbane@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AUS-QLD-BRISBANE] ROLL CALL Warrener, Petty Hi Did your Petty's run a business in Queen St Brisbane around 1911 or so?
