Best wishes for your future Debbie. Congratulations on your list as well. Thelma Dear Friend of the Western District, I have gleaned a lot of information of many years and am happy to share with anyone who has links to these names. George Bostock was in Port Fairy c.1839, about the time of Michael Connolly. Augustus Bostock was first at Grasmere, north of Warrnambool. Other family names in Port Fairy and Warrnambool region especially are:- AITKIN/BOSTOCK MANIFOLD/AITKIN R.B.PATERSON/AITKIN WARE/BOSTOCK YOUNG/McROBIE/WARE MACKERSEY/BOSTOCK FARIE/COX WINTER/COX CONNOLLY/BOSTOCK DOVETON/BOSTOCK These and other names were in the region from c.1835, while some families are still occupying properties. If you have a link, I would be pleased to share. Sincerely in Searching...
