Dear Friends, Sounds like a great idea and I could do it if I had the time, but I don't. I have a long thread of names from the Western District too. I will check all the names that come on the list, with old diaries of Augustus Bostock from 1853-1920. Those old pioneers walked or rode the horse from one station to another and slept overnight. They all knew everybody it seems from old writings. Sincerely in Searching Thelma (Bostock) Birrell in Queensland.
