    3. Good morning all, I read with great interest Colleen Robinson's message about the above newspaper website. I went to the website and searched and found a number of family members listed in different articles. It was very exciting reading indeed. Being that it was a Melbourne Newspaper I didn't expect to find so many family members listed from over Victoria. It was a great find. I even found mention of a still born child in 1924. How common was it to list a still birth? There was no death or funeral listed for this wee babe. I also found an interesting article on an ancestor who "fell out of a tree" and a few days later died from the results according to a verdict. Many wedding notices were found and they give a very interesting insite into what they wore and who was there. I will be looking into this website for awhile now given so many "hits" found for some surnames. My question now is after finding a number of newspapers you are given 3 options: "print", "save as PDF" and "Save as Image". I hit the save as image and from there printed out what I wanted. Now I have the problem of "where on my computer" would the images have been saved? I have looked every where I can think to look and can not find them. I admit I am still learning about computers and there workings. If anyone can direct me in the right way I would be ever so grateful. Many thanks, Melissa.
