Hello Kathy Thank you for your reply to my query. It would be wonderful if your husband's family had any connections to or knows of any of my families in these areas. I am at present researching my Mother's side of the family. The families I am interested in are Joseph & Amelia Bennett who moved to Apsley sometime in the late 1800's and who are both buried in the Apsley Cemetery. They were my mother's maternal Great Grandparents. Their daughter Ada Amelia Bennett was my mother's grandmother. Also another family by the name of PITMAN who were friends of the Bennett family and who lived at Apsley from 1884 to 1889 and then at Edenhope until about 1892. My mother's aunt Louisa CAMPBELL married Ben SHERRIFF. My mother remembers that the Sherriff family may have owned a garage at Apsley. We would love to make contact with any descendants of the these families still living in the Apsley district. cheers Lynne ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kathy Creer" <kcreer@aapt.net.au> To: <aus-vic-western-district@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2007 6:08 PM Subject: Re: [AUS-VIC-WESTERN-DISTRICT] Apsley/Edenhope history group > Hi Lynne > > Don't know about a group but my husband's family appears to cover a good > deal of the population of these two towns. > What names are you interested in? > Cheers, > Kathy Creer > Adelaide, South Australia > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Lynne Price" <lynkev21@datafast.net.au> > To: <aus-vic-western-district@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2007 10:40 AM > Subject: [AUS-VIC-WESTERN-DISTRICT] Apsley/Edenhope history group > > > > Hello Listers > > Would anyone on the LIST be able to tell me if there is a family history > > group at either Apsley or Edenhope. > > If not, what other towns nearby might have a history group. > > > > Regards > > > > Lynne Price > > > > ------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > > AUS-VIC-WESTERN-DISTRICT-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' > > without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > > > > > > -- > > No virus found in this incoming message. > > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > > Version: 7.5.476 / Virus Database: 269.11.13/946 - Release Date: 8/10/2007 > > 3:50 PM > > > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to AUS-VIC-WESTERN-DISTRICT-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
