Yes, Sandra, I have spoken to a couple of families who are related to these Colac Murray families. Someone else may make contact with you, but I feel sure that Dorothy Ware of Terang (not a researcher) in Victoria is from that family. There is another lady from Buderim in Queensland. There is much in books too, so the Victorian libraries would have much for you to seek out. Hope this is of some help. Thelma (Bostock) Birrell in Queensland.

Hugh was the first white man to settle in the Colac area in 1837. >Sandra.
