Hi Everyone (Steve, are you reading this), I have just been handed a set of four ***original*** photographs by Thomas Washbourne, Melbourne photographer of the 1870s. One is his woodcutters at Lower Dargo and the other three are photographs (one a hop kiln) from one Briagolong family. I know he was through here in the 1870s - Steve, do you now have any better date than "1870s", and does this confirm what you thought about him coming through Briagolong. Can anyone at all give an exact date for this trip through????? Cheers Linda -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Hello Listers, And if anyone replies about this, could it please go to the list? I am always interested in photographers and better dating of them.
