Hi Listers Could anyone tell me if the Church of England Church/parsonage at the Wannon in Western Victoria, is still in existance. My Great Grandparents were apparently married there on 23 Dec.1869. and I wondered if the building is still standing. If not where was it located and would there be any photographs of the building in existance. Regards Lynne Price - Victoria lprice@datafast.net.au

Hello Listers I am searching for the family of Thomas BEATON,from Longload, Somerset, who arrived at Portland, on the "PRIAM" 25 August, 1852. The family settled on land in the Wannon area in Western Victoria around 1860. The family consisted of Wife Eliza (nee TUCKER), Son Charles and Daughters Harriet, Eliza ( Mrs Hartwich) and Ann. I believe 1 Daughter may have married a Mr PATON, the other a Mr BOXER. If anyone has this family on their charts I would love to hear from you. Regards Lynne Price - Victoria lprice@datafast.net.au

I am unsubscribing for a while as I am travelling to WA, but just wanted to say "THANKS" again, to all of the wonderful people on these lists who are so kind and so willing to help everyone else! It really is appreciated! Cheers, Andrea Balcombe

Dear Listers, I am researching the RANKIN family of Colac and would be interested in hearing from anyone else who is connected to this family. My grandmother, Ruby Mary Rankin b 1891, was the daughter of Dougald Rankin and Annie Lawes. At the time of my grandmother's marriage in 1922 the family were living on a property called "The Hill". Dougald b 1863 was the eldest son of Malcolm Rankin and Mary McKenzie. Malcolm's occupation is recorded as Grazier, Irrewillipe, and he was born 1837 in Scotland. Sandra Dumble Gippsland, Victoria

Dear List, I am very new to this list and I thought that I'd start off by introducing myself and posting my interests. My name is Kerry Willson and I'm from Brisbane and I am researching the names GREENHAM and BREWER. William GREENHAM and Agnes BREWER were my gr-grandparents and they were married in Victoria in 1877. William GREENHAM's family originally came from Somerset in England and Agnes BREWER was born in London in 1854. Hoping to hear from anyone with the above interests, Many thanks, Kerry.

Thanks for that Debbie - I'm sorry it got to you instead of the list though. I installed Windows ME recently and I've been having all sorts of problems with my mail ever since. Regards Peter, the older of the two Robbos, at Bairnsdale, capital of the Victorian Riviera
