Hi Dusty, I have a copy of Keith McD Fairweather's book "Time to Remember" (The History of Gold Mining on the Tambo and its Tributaries) which mentions the Exelsior and Victoria mines. It may mention more from your list but unfortunatley the book has no index and I've just had a quick flick through. Your great grandad isnt mentioned but I am happy to share what I have with you if you're interested - contact me off list.

Hi Peter and Jane, I have tried to get this book, without success, but I did manage to get a copy of "Around the Campfires Ashes" in which my great granddad , and his two sons, Fred and Dan Hollensen, got a mention, I would appreciate anything you have if it is not too much trouble,,,I thought maybe someone on the list may have an interest in the actual mines, and something of the history of them,so I will keep everything crossed and hope thank again, best regards Dusty Peter and Jane Bailey wrote: >Hi Dusty, > >I have a copy of Keith McD Fairweather's book "Time to Remember" (The >History of Gold Mining on the Tambo and its Tributaries) which mentions the >Exelsior and Victoria mines.
