Hi,, I was wondering if anyone out there knows the Yorke Peninsula well, especially around Moonta area. I have been going through the Adelaide Almanack for 1864 and Edmund was a sheep farmer at Tarrara. On the Birth CD, is daughter Frances was born at Barara, Yorke Peninsula. I am assuming this is the same place, just misspelt I can't find any town by that name, so my question is.............. Was it a small village/town in 1864 or was it the name of their sheep station? Thanks Tracey
Hi, Mannings Place names of Sth Australia, doenst have either of these places. Manning usually doesnt miss any, so are either correct as a place or town name So more than liklley may have been the name of their property. regards Freda ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tracey Ives" <traceyives@gmail.com> To: "AUS-SAGEN@rootsweb. com" <AUS-SAGEN@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, February 04, 2011 9:26 PM Subject: [AUS-SAGEN] Yorke Peninsula > Hi,, > > > > I was wondering if anyone out there knows the Yorke Peninsula well, > especially around Moonta area. > > > > I have been going through the Adelaide Almanack for 1864 and Edmund was a > sheep farmer at Tarrara. > > > > On the Birth CD, is daughter Frances was born at Barara, Yorke Peninsula. > > > > I am assuming this is the same place, just misspelt > > > > I can't find any town by that name, so my question is.............. > > > > Was it a small village/town in 1864 or was it the name of their sheep > station? > > > > Thanks > > > > Tracey > > > > Advertising on AUS-SAGEN is forbidden by Rootsweb Rules. > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > AUS-SAGEN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
Tracey How about Barabba, a town in the mid north of SA near Hamley Bridge, Owen, Stockport. Certainly not far from Moonta.
