Glenda hi Presbyterian was their religion - I tried the archives at PLC - no reply. The idea of locating this is very daunting...there were private schools in every small town and I found one in a small village in the OMA the other night. Wang had t hem, Albury, B/worth, ...why send them to Melbourne I wonder. You are lucky having a photo of them in uniform. I have a prize of Susan's for the college in St Kilda, and also a list of her achievements at one point. Good marks which to me means something, something that contradicts my aunt's remarks. She would have been about 12 when Susan died so would have remembered her in her latter years only. I also have a photo of Susan in some sort of 'dress uniform'. all white very blousy thing with a black bow/tie . Reminds me for some reason of a musical uniform, and indeed Susan was gifted. Her music remains to this day, some of it signed by composers, so I do believe she was involved in some group. This I can't get around either.
