Hi Denise, I think I am correct in saying that Christ church is the Anglican - CofE - church at the top of the street on the right hand side (if you come out of the Bakery to your left and then turn left into Ford........) Sorry I don't know in which direction we are going. There is another church across the road, I don't think it is RC but either Pres, Uniting or Meth. (This would be on the same side as Hiram's business). The CofE church used to be known as the United Church of England and Ireland. Back in 1856 it seems to have been known as the 'temporary church' according to a marriage registration I obtained. By the way, they have a historian there who will look up archived church records for a cost of around $25. She was very helpful in deciphering the maiden name of Robert Milne's first wife which was indecipherable on the certificate but infinitely readable on the original church entry. Not much help, but Cheers anyway, Wendy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Denise" <denisem@powerup.com.au> To: <AUS-VIC-HIGH-COUNTRY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, October 09, 2004 1:01 PM Subject: [HC] churches > Hoping someone can tell me where Christ Church is in Ford St. My memory is slipping. > > Also there is a church on the left as you head towards Wang in Ford St as you have gone over Church St..

Hi Wendy, Thanks for this. If we start with this Vic Heritage Link and put in Beechworth http://ndoiext01.doi.vic.gov.au/doi/hvolr.nsf and look at the link for HO523 for Old Methodist Church a photo is available. This is opposite the C/E and next to the red brick Church I asked also about. If you have the book Echoes of History there is a photo on P118 of the two churches. I saw a sign outside the red brick church 3 years ago a child care centre (next to Methodist) which I thought said it was the Methodist or Wesleyan church. I need to know what denomination the red Church is or was if anyone can help. Have you been to southern NSW yet Wendy? Found anything out on the deaths in accident of your ggf/andggm? On the link above Wendy is mention of the London T.
