Hi Zola, Your mother may have been a bit early for my cousins, but have contacted a friend who has a copy of the school rolls and he is going to look the names up for us. The cost of the book is $40-00, postage I don't know, as I haven't an address for you, or weight for the book. Cheers Ray. ----- Original Message ----- From: Zola Ortenburg <zolaortenburg@bigpond.com> To: <AUS-VIC-HIGH-COUNTRY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2004 7:07 AM Subject: Re: [HC] Book Launch re: Edi History 1850 - 2002 > Hello Ray, > > My mothers name was Ella (Nell) BEACH, she came from a large family Ivy, > George, Olive, Gladys, Doris, Henry (Roy) & Allison.
