Irene hi I didn't see the results printed, but I'll scan back over it later for you to see if I missed. The papers suddenly became full of a couple of deaths of major players in Beechworth and the election of Mining Board - all else goes out the window when an election is on.

Irene. I posted more than one about the Challenge of Rath and the other but there is only one in the archives. I'm sending it thru again, luckily I haven't cleared out my Sent Box since then.

Thanks very much Denise. What a funny bunch. Talk about prickly pride. As you say, there must have been no election just then. Had to fill the paper with something I suppose Regards Irene R Rees/Dowsett Family Page http://tribalpages.com/tribes/Brent44 -------Original Message------- From: Denise Date: 09/29/05 14:23:04 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [HC] OMA Irene.

Hello Denise, Looking forward to the elections as that's when my Henry FOSTER may show up. When you have a chance can you see if William Henry FOSTER was in the licensee list. He would have either been in the Prince of Wales Hotel or The Temple Bar. Love the stuff about the HUNT line - have these in my tree. My father remembers Uncle Ned (Edward HUNT 1875-1970) they were very well off and gave him a pony when he was a child. Had Cenovis Yeast business.

Don't worry Mary - I scanned back over the papers - nothing there for a license - but they come in dribs so will keep an eye out. d ----- Original Message ----- From: "MM" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 10:22 AM Subject: Re: [HC] OMA > Hello Denise, > Looking forward to the elections as that's when my Henry FOSTER may show > up. > When you have a chance can you see if William Henry FOSTER was in the > licensee list. > He would have either been in the Prince of Wales Hotel or The Temple Bar. > Love the stuff about the HUNT line - have these in my tree. > My father remembers Uncle Ned (Edward HUNT 1875-1970) they were very well > off and gave him a pony when he was a child. > Had Cenovis Yeast business. > Mary of Melbourne > > > > >> Irene hi >> I didn't see the results printed, but I'll scan back over it later for >> you to see if I missed.

OMA 26.6.1861 TEMPLE BAR HOTEL (Late Union) Ford Street will be opened On the 1st of July by John Williams.

In June 1861, Prince of Wales Hotel R R Jones was the District Publican. This is from a list of publicans I've been given, not extracted from the newspaper. The Temple Bar in Jun 1861 was John Williams - per the list. This agrees with the newspaper D ----- Original Message ----- From: "MM" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 10:22 AM Subject: Re: [HC] OMA > Hello Denise, > Looking forward to the elections as that's when my Henry FOSTER may show > up. > When you have a chance can you see if William Henry FOSTER was in the > licensee list. > He would have either been in the Prince of Wales Hotel or The Temple Bar. > Love the stuff about the HUNT line - have these in my tree. > My father remembers Uncle Ned (Edward HUNT 1875-1970) they were very well > off and gave him a pony when he was a child. > Had Cenovis Yeast business. > Mary of Melbourne > > > > >> Irene hi >> I didn't see the results printed, but I'll scan back over it later for >> you to see if I missed.
