Bev. Everyone is in shock to even think Towoomba could go under especially if you have ever gone over the range to get there. Because of previous fires floods etc we have now updated our trees regularly and they are all around the world on CDs including photos. And easier to grab cds instead of albums in a hurry. It's nice to have in albums but only if backed up. Getting calls from all over checking to see if we are OK and question is asked are your records OK. BUT is the Qld State Library!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and museum. Trying to remember how far it went up in 74. Sandra from a very soggy but safe area in Brisbane.

My heart go es out to the people of South East Queensland where many of our ancestors first settled. My first hope is that your genealogy is safe. We may lose homes, cars, or crop s or pets, but to lose our recorded ancestry is by far a greater loss because i t holds the key to who we are. My condolences to those who lost everything in the Lockyer valley and points east.
