Hi Group, Interested in the name PROSS , is anyone doing this name , looking at the moment in Tasmania and Victoria , maybe elsewhere . Regards Margaret

For those that are interested in the early discovery of Australia, apparently Four Corners are screening on July 31st (8.30pm) the following: "When Tall Tales are Big Business" A well timed national programme related to the AOTM theme in that it examines the claim and the 'evidence' that Chinese Mariners would have been the first visitors to sail to our continent in around the year 1421. Make your own judgment from a well researched and journalistically top notch investigation. A range of expert historians and at least one very clever but perhaps not so expert will communicate some of their knowledge. Should the book clai-ming this be on the fiction shelves? Finally an exposé about a book that is marketed as "the international bestseller that is rewriting history". best wishes Jenny Fawcett

Good evening listers, I was wondering whether anyone had a CD or access to (BRISBANE) QUEENSLAND hospital records. The hospital has since been demolished but was called FERMOY PRIVATE HOSPITAL, BRISBANE and was open in the 1960s. I am looking for a Kenneth Theodore Charles WRIGLEY who died there in 1961.

Hello I was wonderig if anyone maybe researching a GREGG-MACGREGOR family from Abbenhall, Gloucester, England. I am particularly interested in a JOHN VIVIAN FORTESCUE GREGG-MACGREGOR and his wife NINA ELIZABETH JOSEPHINE (surname unknown). John served in the AUSTRALIAN ARMY during WW1 with the 1st Field Ambulance Reinforcement joining on 17 Sept 1914. I have located his Military Record and have found Nina returning from England in 1919 and am going to send for their papers. According to John's record he was either a Minister with the Church of England or a Clerk in Holy Orders. If I am reading his record correct he was award the Victoria Cross. Thank You Hazel

Using www.multimap.com.au type in Foords Lane and Bombowlee and select NSW and presto - you will see it is not far from Tumut. Bombowlee is a locality, really close to Tumut. I have been there unbeknowance to me until this moment. There are orchards on the hill side along Foords Lane - it is really pretty there. Visit http://www.slv.vic.gov.au/pictoria/b/1/1/doc/b11006.shtml for a photo of Bombowlee Lane, Tumut. Batlow is a town in its own right, still in existence, a reasonable distance south of Tumut, and is reknowed as an apple growing area - to date supermarkets still stock Batlow apples. Using www.multimap.com.au type in Pioneer Street or Batlow which will bring up the town. Bargo is just south of Sydney, off the Hume Hwy - I don't recall it ever being an apple growing region (there is a chance I may be wrong about that of course). Down the road a bit closer to Mittagong at Yerrinbool there are apple orchards which have been in existence for over thirty years, and closer to Goulburn at Wingello and Tallong, there are a couple of apple orchards. Wingello and Tallong use to be a very big orchard area in the early 1900s. Around the Thirlmere and Tahmoor areas, next towns north of Bargo there were a lot of poultry sheds - as I understand it many Estonian migrants came there about the 1940s rounghly and ran poultry operations. This has since died out a great deal. There are Quarmby's buried at either, Batlow Cemetery, possibly Tumut and Adelong too. Hope this information helps.

Dear Bernice, Please send your email again I have made a mistake and sent you CROFT info to someone else. So sorry. Amanda

Dear List, Send names and I will look up and send to you via attachment. With surnames Jones-Smith etc we need first names as there are to many. Best wishes Amanda THE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY OF VICTORIA INC. The Victorian Goldfields Hospitals Index: The Hospitals and the Information the Records Contain The CD is an amalgamation of indexes to records of the following eight hospitals. They are all admission records, except that which we have called the Kyneton Hospital Family record: Amherst Hospital 1869-1888 Ballarat Hospital 1856-1913 Castlemaine Hospital 1855-1920 Castlemaine Benevolent Asylum 1860-1922 Creswick Hospital 1863-1882 Creswick Hospital outpatients 1873-1877 Creswick Hospital 1883-1894 Dunolly Hospital 1860-1900 Kyneton Hospital Admissions Register 1862 - 1885 Kyneton Hospital Family Record 1869-1884 Maldon Hospital 1864-1905 Maryborough Hospital 1855-1907 The index comprises ten fields of information: surname; given name(s); admission date; age of patient; patient's place of birth; whether single, married or widowed; occupation; residence; and source. Various additional information is contained in the records described below. Amherst Hospital 1869-1888 The full index contains the following fields: name; residence; occupation; marital status: single, married or widowed; age, admission date; discharge date; religion, father's name; mother's name; and remarks. Note that not all fields are fully filled in. The original documents are held by the Talbot Museum (Camp St, Talbot, Victoria 3371) but may not be viewed because of their fragility. Like many small societies the Talbot Museum has a good collection of historical information about it's history and provides a research service. Ballarat Hospital 1856-1913 The full index contains the following fields: name; age; sex; residence; occupation; religion; admission date; discharge date; birth place; time in Victoria; and who recommended the admission. Most fields are fully filled in. The original records are held by the hospital. The full index is published on fiche and is available from the GSV bookshop, and for research in the library. The Castlemaine District Hospital 1855-1920 The first Castlemaine District Hospital located in Gingell Street was opened on 24 May 1853. A New Hospital building was erected in Halford St and opened on 16 December 1939, operating today as the Acute Division of Mt Alexander Hospital. On 1 July 1986 it amalgamated with the Mt Alexander Hospital. The admissions register contains the following information: registration number; surname; given name(s); admission date; age of patient; patient's place of birth; marital status: single, married or widowed; occupation; residence; religion; disease; result; discharge date; and by whom admission was recommended. Most of the fields in the register were fully filled in. The original records are held by the Mt Alexander Hospital and a fiche copy of them is available for research in the GSV library. Note that the records for the period 1862-1868 are incomplete. The Castlemaine Benevolent Asylum 1860-1922 The Asylum was located in Cornish St and opened on 4 July 1860. The name was changed to Alexander in 1955. The original building is still in use as the Extended Care Division of the Mt Alexander Hospital. The admissions register has provision for the following information: registration number; surname; given name(s); admission date; age of patient; patient's place of birth; marital status: single, married or widowed; occupation; parents' names; issue; residence; religion; ground of admission; year of arrival in the colony; discharge date. Several of the fields in the register were often not filled in. Creswick Hospital 1863-1882 The full index was prepared by E Wickham and R Huggins from the original document held at the Public Record Office's Ballarat branch. The full index contains the following fields: admission date; name; residence; age; occupation; marital status: single, married or widowed; place of birth; religion; time in Victoria; the result of treatment; and discharge date. Most fields are fully filled in. A copy of the full index is held by the GSV Creswick Hospital Outpatients 1873-1877 The full index contains the following fields: name; residence; marital status: single, married or widowed; age; admission date; and where born. These fields are all that are available. The field provided to record where the patient was born is mostly blank, while all other fields are nearly fully filled in. The whereabouts of the original document are unknown. Creswick Hospital 1883-1894 The full index contains the following fields: name; birthplace; age; residence; occupation; marital status: single, married or widowed; admission date; discharge date; the result of treatment; the time in the colony; religion; and by whom recommended. Just a few fields are incompletely filled in. The full index is held at the GSV. The whereabouts of the original document are unknown. Dunolly Hospital 1860-1900 The full index contains the following fields: name; residence; occupation; marital status: single, married or widowed; admission date; discharge date; age; result of treatment; religion; place of birth; year of birth; ship on which the patient travelled to Australia; how many years in the colony; and place of departure for Australia. Note that not all these fields are fully filled in. A fiche copy of the full index is available from the GSV bookshop and available for research in the GSV library. The whereabouts of the original document is unknown. Kyneton Hospital Admissions Register 1862 - 1885 This index was built from two records containing admissions of In-Patients and Out-Patients. The In-Patients' register contains the following fields: Number; Age; Name; Country (of birth); Trade; Disease; Date of Admission; Number of days in hospital; Result; Where last resident; Religious Denomination; Date of Discharge; and By Whom Recommended. Some of the register's fields are not fully filled in. The Out-Patients; register contains the following fields: Number; Age; Name; Disease; Country (of birth); Religion; Address; Recommender; and Remarks (which contains a date). Kyneton Hospital Family Record 1869-1884 This is an unusual record. We believe it was created as a comprehensive record of the patient's kin. It lacks any date, but it contains much information of genealogical value. The fields are headed: Number; Name; Where Born; Lived in Colony of Victoria; Other Colonies; Father's Name and Business; Mother's Maiden name and Christian Name; When married; To whom married; Name of Children (usually including the child's age). In the majority of cases all the applicable fields are filled in. Each name in this Family Record has been indexed, and a full index is held at the GSV. The Goldfields Hospital index includes every name in the document. Fortunately the document's time frame largely coincides with the other document we have (Kyneton Admissions) and this was used to infer dates in the Family Record document. The date field is therefore the conclusion of the indexers and sometimes contains information when no date can be confidently inferred. "No Hosp Rec" and "No Hospital Record of date" indicates that no plausible correlation can be made between the two records so no date information can be inferred. "No Rec1879" indicates that the year is probably 1879 but no month or day can be inferred. Maldon Hospital 1864-1905 The register was indexed by Elisabeth and Raymond G Allan. The whereabouts of it is unknown. The full index contains the following fields: name; residence; marital status single, married or widowed; admission date; discharge date; result of treatment; religion; birthplace; age; ship on which the patient travelled to Australia; how many years in the colony; and port of departure for Australia. Note that not all fields are fully filled in. The full index is available from the GSV bookshop and is in the library for research. Maryborough Hospital 1855-1907 The register was indexed by Elisabeth and Raymond G Allan. The whereabouts of it is unknown. The full index contains the following fields: name; admission date; discharge date; if died, the date of death; age; occupation; residence; time in colony; marital status: single, married or widowed; religion; place of birth; ship on which the patient travelled to Australia; how many years in the colony; and port of departure for Australia. Note that not all fields are fully filled in. Purchase it from http://www.familyhistorybookshop.org.au/prod2474.htm

Hi Hazel, Neville & listers, BOMBOWLEE does not show up on the map that Neville sent the URL for. Reginald's parents also had children registered at BATLOW, which today still has a postcode but it does not show up on the map either. Another suggestion try www.multimap.com.au Both BOMBOWLEE & BATLOW show up on the multimap. BOMBOWLEE is in or near the KOSCIUSKO NATIONAL PARK & BATLOW near the OLD TUMBARUMBA ROAD which eventually runs into GREENHILLS ROAD. OLD TUMBARUMBA ROAD / GEENHILLS ROAD, WONDALGA ROAD & BATLOW ROAD all intersect WONDALGA. BATLOW ROAD continues on to WINDOWEE then interects with EAST GILMORE ROAD to the SNOWY MOUNTAINS HIGHWAY. Possibly both towns have been "swallowed up" by TUMUT or one of the surrounding areas. I know a lot of places, like WOORAGEE near BEECHWORTH, that were towns have disappeared over the years and simply show up on maps as "locality" In 1903 mother Amy is at BATLOW and a Henry J. listed at HILLSIDE, BARGO. Henry is listed as a "Farmer". The area is, or was, an apple growing area if I recall correctly so maybe the family were farming and also growing fruit. Regards, Dorne.

Hello I must apologies I thought I had added the place the database is compiled on it is ST. BARTHOLOMEW'S CHURCH & CEMETERY at Prospect. I seem to be a little forgetful in my previous email so I hope you will all forgive me. Regards Hazel

Hello again I should have added this to my previous email I have a REGINALD HAROLD (HARRY) QUARMBY buried in the cemetery. I located this gentleman's military record and have him born on 28 Oct 1891 at Bombowlee, NSW. His birth registration is at Tumut can SKS let me know if his birth area is near Tumut. Thank You Hazel

Hello I was a member of the list a few years back and sought help which I received on a project I am working on. This is a database compiling as much on the birth, deaths, marriages and baptisms also military information that have taken place from 1841 until today's time. The database is coming nearly to an end and I am hoping to have it ready for public use at Blacktown Library's local history section. I have all BDM's up until 1856 and many more through kind donations from descendants. Each families donation also goes into hard copy which will also be housed at the library under the name of the contributer. I will be able to add to the database so have decided that I will obtain as many certificates as I can to add this vital information. Sources I have used up todate are: BDM's in Australia and as many as I could obtain with help and through the LDS films. From State Records of NSW sources I have used: Shipping records Convict Probate Primary Application Packages Deceased Estate Files etc If anyone has a ancestor or descendant I would deeply appreciate hearing from you prior to the database being launched possibly later this year. Thank You Hazel
