Thanks Paul and everyone else too for their helpful suggestions. It sounds like Greenvale might be the closest to Ballarat, where the person in question was born and married. She died in 1971. Jo Names I'm researching in this line are: NEILSON, PEARSON, BERNARD, FEATHERSTON,(Ballarat, Geelong, Mildura) CALWELL, BUTCHER, BREGUET, ALLEN, CANNING, KIRBY, HAMILTON

By the way, do you have Frederick Ulysses BREGUET (1833-1914) in your tree - he married into my BAGLIN tree - marrying Catherine BAGLIN in 1864. The family lived in Ceres, near Geelong. If so, contact me off list for details.
