I am currently writing an article for the Frigon Family Association in Quebec Canada re the Fregon family from Omeo. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~fregon/ John Fregon (Jean Frigon) emigrated from Canada on the Ocean Eagle in 1852 and found his way to Omeo with other French Canadians looking for gold. He married Elizabeth McCoy in 1864 and they had 12 children. They found that there was more money to be made supplying the miners needs than digging for gold. Elizabeth and John and their family were involved with several Hotels down the Omeo Highway including the Golden Age at Omeo which after it was burnt down in the early 1890's Elizabeth rebuilt it as the magnificent three story structure that was destroyed in the 1939 fires. John and Elizabeth ran the Golden Age for a year or too before john died in 1886. but she only ever leased the new building. I am particularly looking for any Fregon family photos plus and this is the real hard one a Photo of the Tongio Hotel at Tongio. I have pictures of all the other "Fregon" Hotels. Thanks John Riddell
