Reunions are held every 3–5 years and our eight previous reunions have been held in NSW. As two of John Nichols and his wife Ann Pugh’s children, Sarah & Thomas, settled in Victoria it was decided to have this reunion at Daylesford near where Thomas and his wife Martha farmed their land at Korweinguboora. John Nichols Family Society holds a unique collection of 5483+ family photos and 1649+ certificates/transcripts. Many photos will be displayed at the reunion and copies of certificates/transcripts are free to family members. A photocopier and scanner will be available on the day.
