Hi Sam, In 1974 I bought a house in Albury which had been built by a SHARP, but I (stupidly!) sold it and moved away in 1980. For the life of me I can't remember his first name but it will come to me. (It did... his name was Ernest) He built the house for himself and family, some time in the 1930s (and boy, is it BUILT!). I loved the place. It is at 511 Garden Street , Albury. I had a copy of the original plan submitted to the Council...I framed it, and sold it with the house, so it still could be with the present owners. I have photos of it of course if you'd like. Ern Sharp built the Albury Town Hall in 1908, and it still stands as the Albury Art Gallery. I'm not able to help you further, but if you like to contact the Albury Historical Society (C/o the Albury Library & Museum, Kiewa St Albury 2640) I'm sure they can help. Good luck, and let me know if I can help further.

Hi Peter thanks for the information and the offer of the photos, I would love them, Ernest Sharp was my G G Grandmothers brother. I new he was a builder in Albury and when I went there with my Mother about 7yrs ago we did actually go to the old town hall to have a look. With some help from my sister (who lives in QLD) we are going to write a book on the family and I am trying to find out as much information as I can, on what my families in Albury did. They where mostly dairy farmers, my Great Aunt Anne Gray married John Haberfield, the Haberfield's used to own the dairy that Pauls now owns (I think). I still have a lot of Sharp and Gray relatives in Albury, although most of them are not much help when it comes to information. Thanks again Sam -----Original Message----- From: aus-vic-ne-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-vic-ne-bounces@rootsweb.com]On Behalf Of Peter Ross Sent: Saturday, 13 October 2007 7:43 PM To: aus-vic-ne@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AVNE] New to the list Hi Sam, In 1974 I bought a house in Albury which had been built by a SHARP, but I (stupidly!) sold it and moved away in 1980.
