Many thanks for taking the trouble to write so fully, Jeannie. I must track down copies of these books. You mention the name "Chapple". Could that be a spelling error? The reason I ask is that I have a CHAPPELL born in Mitiamo in 1932, a descendant of the Tarnagulla/Dunolly PETERS family I have been tracing (and still alive, so won't make further public comment.) I was also pleased to note the following comment in your post: - | For those interested in this area, the other books on the history of the | local schools (lots of photo's in each!) are Memories of School Days at | Pompapiel, Calivil South, Prairie West and Hayanmi; Memories of School Days | at Serpentine, Bears Lagoon, Jarklin and Hurstwood; Memories and School Days | Dingee, Tandarra Plains, Tang Tang, Mitiamo, Yalook, Prairie, Tandara, "Old" | Mitiamo. You might recall I asked a question a few months ago about the location of YALLOOK because I had it as a place of birth for one of the PETERS family. Listers were of the opinion that the location was actually Yambrook and, in the absence of any information about such a place as YALLOOK (or YALOOK) I had to conclude that there was no such place. Since you have mentioned it, above, I now have confirmation that such a place does (or did) indeed exist! Thank you for that bit of information. Trevor
