Also do you have Di Talbot's book Buckland Valley page 213, Mary and Ellen page 127 This is from 'Beyond Gold' Ken Treacy Walter William Lindsay was born in Minois, America, in 1837 and came to Australia in 1854. He arrived in Sydney with the American Forty-niners who walked to Beechworth where he mined in the Woolshed area. After his marriage to Mary Connors at Beechworth in 1856 they went to Buckland and were there at the time of the Buckland riot in July 1857. Their first two children, Ellen and Maria, were born at Buckland. In 1860 they moved to Morses Creek, where he continued to follow the occupation of a miner until his failing health compelled him to give this up. William did not take an active part in public affairs but his quiet and unassuming disposition earned him the respect and esteem of a wide circle of friends. In September 1871, when a move was made to have Government aid restored to Morses Creek School, William was recorded as being a member of the school committee. Their ten children were Ellen (Mrs Mills 1858) Maria (Mrs Casey 1860) Arvillla (Mrs Pat Dunphy 1861) Julia (1863) Mary Ann (1865) Catherine (Mrs Rowe 1866) William (died as an infant 1869) Charles (1870) Francis (1873) and William Roland (1874). William Roland worked at the Lone Hand mine at Wandiligong in 1928 Kerry ----- Original Message ----- From: Denise To: AUS-VIC-HIGH-COUNTRY-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, January 07, 2006 4:32 PM Subject: [HC] Bright Cemetery Does anyone have access to burials in Bright?
