All good here - main concerns are the wildlife, otherwise all Qld human inhabitants OK. Buildings & effects can always be replaced, memories are forever. Though there is a Kincaid family in far North Qld that's been there since the late 1700's Anyone know anything about them ?

The Consul's letter said John boarded ship at San Francisco and had placed 19 & 7/8 ounces of gold dust in safekeeping with the Captain. Margaret filed Letters of Administration for John's estate. If anyone on the Kincaid List wants copies of the 4 pages notify my privately and I will send you a copy.
