Hi Laurette Did somebody help you? If not, I can recommend the Rutherglen Historical Society (they were great to me) and have their contact details if you wish.

From an excerpt in an obituary notice on my ggrandmother, it states: On Monday morning another of Rutherglen's old identities passed away in the person of Mrs Annie Goldsworthy, relict of the late John Goldsworthy, of Chiltern Road, at the fine age of 72 years. The deceased, who was a resident of the State for 55 years, was among the first settlers on the Rutherglen goldfields, coming with her late husband, who followed the fortunes of mining for years, but as old age began to tell on him he planted a small vineyard on the Chiltern Road, near Mr J Kelly's, where the old couple lived for a number of years. This notice was in 1908. I have looked in the electoral roll for Rutherglen and it confirms they were on the Chiltern Road in 1899. John was a miner and he worked the quartz reef situated on Schwarer's Hill, and also at a later date had a good claim on Campbell's line of reef, but I don't know if these mines were in the Rutherglen area. Grateful for any help. Laurette
