I have just read the several emails on this subject. First of all I am interested if any body has information on the Bliech family as they occur in two family groups that I am researching. To add to that they were great grandparents of my wife but she knows nought of them. Second Greenwattle Street now we lived right near there when I was a boy and my father used to gather milk from farmers in Greenwattle Street. He had a bulk milk run to the factory from Gowrie Junction areas and Wilsonton. Greenwattle Street used to run from the Cemetery passed the town side of thr aerodrome and came to a sudden halt just north of Bridge Street. When I was in Toowoomba recently my cousin took me to Gowrie Junction vie Greenwattle Street and they have now extended it . The area between Taylor and Bridge Streets was closed off to extend the aerodrome. I think that happened in the 1960s. I have a vague idea that when I returned from Vietnam it was closed then. I came back to Toowoomba to get my family before we came south where I have been ever since. Our farm touched into Greenwattle Street in the areas that was a scrub and is now a wending road. It is certainly a long way from Charlton although the highway now goes through there. In my day it went via Taylor Street. I can almost remember the names of every person living in Greenwattle Street at that time but have no0 recollection of Bleich. I am interested that somebody has a roll of students attending Wilsonton School. I wonder when from and if she can look up some names for me. Fascinating to be taken back like this. I think that Hogg Street was further down toward Rockville. It may now connect to Greenwattle Street but if my memory is correct it also run onto a scrub before Tor Street. The piggeries that have been mentioned were in fact in Gowrie Road about three kilometres west of Greenwattle Street owned by Percy Morgan, In Boundary Road owned by Adam Knauth and in Boundary Road and Taylor Street owned by George Ciesolka. I think there was another one in Hogg Street but cannot recall the owner's name. It was only a small one compared to the others. Adam Knauth used to go to all the hotels, cafes (restaurants) and any householder who engaged him. He did a daily and weekly run collecting the kitchen waste for his pigs. George Ciesolka and the bloke in Hogg Street used to collect the whey from the cheese factory. He had a truck with a tank on it and would go to the factory each morning to collect his whey and buttermilk. I forget what Percy Morgan gathered but think it might have been both whey , buttermilk and kitchen refuge.

The whole collection is now available on CD from the Qld Family History Society. It contains the passenger list of the voyage, age of the person, last place of residence and occupation, the date of departure from Hamburg, information on the ship itself, it also contains newspaper reports about the voyage and in the case of the La Rochelle in 1865, there are many. We have also heard there are extracts from a diary written by the Supertendant Stuart Beach on Dunwich where the ship was held in quarantine.

Albert, the piggery I remember was owned by Nev Fowler and there was another one. At this time they were being housed intensively with a very scientific diet of grain, vitamins and minerals etc - no scraps allowed.

I have just had a phone call telling me that the other piggery was owned a man named Hudson. Apparently you are several years later than me. We left the farm in about 1952 and I left Toowoomba in 1954 and apart from 2 short stints at Cabarlah in the 1960s I have never lived there since. Trips to Toowoomba are for short family visits.

Hello Albert I only have, as an attachment that was sent to me, children enrolled at Wilsonton School 1939 to 1956. I'm having trouble with my printer and can't get it to print up for me. I can only read the names from the computer screen. I'll send it to you, offlist, as an attachment. I don't know what the name of the book is or when it was printed: it looks like it's a photocopy of a school jubilee or similar. The pages have been donated. Di Randell.
