Hi Listers, I'm looking for the birthdates & places for my mothers siblings.Her name was Helen Withers & she was born at Myrtleford about 1910.Her sisters name was Poppy & there were three brothers Charles,Robert & Lindsay. Her fathers name was Robert William Withers & mothers name,Ada Beatrice Caroline Withers (nee Scott).They were married in Wangaratta in 1905.I believe that they had a dairy farm somewhere between Beechworth & Myrtleford up to around 1929 but am not certain of this.I can vaguely recall my mum talking about Mt.Buffalo so it could have been near there.I would be very grateful if someone out there can furnish some help. Bye for now,Kevin Lemon.Get more from the Web. FREE MSN Explorer download : http://explorer.msn.com
Kevin, Unless I've seriously missed something, I can find no trace of a Lindsay (or anything resembling that name). The others though are : Ada Paulene, born 1906 Beechworth, Vic Reg #643. Charles William, born 1908 Beechworth, #674. Robert Melville, born 1909 Myrtleford, #29604. Helen Elizabeth, born 1911 Myrtleford, #13680.
