Hi Trevor, I don't have any further to add but what you have seems wonderful. Are you going to type it out and publish it at any stage? I believe some of the Lean family were mayors in Clunes. Do you have any info on them?

Hi Maree, As to your first question, I have no plans to reproduce the material I have mentioned. I would need to be satisfied first about copyright issues before I scanned and posted it. Re your second question, there are two Leans mentioned on the photocopied hand-written list The first is R. Lean who served 31 1/4 continuous years on council. and who was Mayor for 5 years. His period of service is recorded as 1910-41. Another entry is for A. Lean who served on council for 5 1/4 years between 1936 - 1941, and was mayor on one occasion. In a column for comments it is noted that he resigned in Dec. 1941. I hope this helps, but recommend you have a look at the link posted by Carolyn.
