Hi All You're all very quiet out there. Has the dreaded lurgy hit you all already? Perhaps for the benefit of new members we could re-introduce ourselves and give our surnames/areas of interest. If you have a particular topic that is dear to your heart mention that too. I for example, am interested in the women pioneers of Victoria and early rural schools. Some of my surnames are HAAR and LIESFIELD in Rainbow BATESON around the Kiata area MCPHEE in Kiata Please put NAMES I AM RESEARCHING as your subject heading. Looking forward to hearing from all 164 members of the List. Cheers Beryl O'Gorman Greensborough Victoria Australia List Admin
