Phil-There were many 'cousin jacks' in Daylesford, give me a name and I will look it up in the museum when I go there tomorrow. We are indexing the 1860's papers so there may be a mention and also we have extensive family historys particularly the Cornish ones.

Has anyone got a clue as to what this might mean - or is it just family myth?
