Hi list, just testing Mary

Hello Dot, Thanks for your interest. I found her particulars on both her marriage certificate and death certificate. So I am certainly looking for anything to match the marriage information.

Hi to all on the list I have just joined and I would like to pose a question to any one who may be able to help me About 3 months ago I sent money to the KILMORE Historical Society for information on WYLIE and LEE families. The person said I had to pay them the required fee up front or else they wouldn't help Did all that and now wondering if there is anyone connected to this list who may be a member of this society who can find out who is the president or secretary to this society as I have mislaid the information and the phone number. I cannot get to the Society as I live miles away in Victoria My WYLIE & LEE familes were in KILMORE 1850's. Again if there is anyone who may know of these families or connected to them I would like to correspond with them. With many thanks for any help or ideas Elaine JEFFERSON jeffersoneb@patash.com.au

Congratulations Peter. Thank you for starting this list - it is very much needed. I wish you all the best.
