Hi Kerry, Thanks for the response. I am seeking any information on the current hut, which I believe replaced the original Culhane Homestead. I am trying to find out who lived there, when both (hut & homestead) were built. Dates that the property changed hands, and to who. Any snippets about the family of interest ....etc...etc... The more historical and cultural heritage I can get on these huts and their sites, the better it will be. My final report will become the research tool as part of the forthcoming management plan, so need to get as much as possible and as accurate as possible.
