I think I posted this one here a couple of years ago. I'm particularly interested in this area because it is just down the road, although most of the sites are on private property or nature reserve. Also, on page 47, it says "In July of that year there
was reported to be a population of 150 at Fernbank, two
hotels, the Commercial and Mr Devery's Globe, two
butchers' shops, and a twice weekly horse express to
Jacqua."

Mr Devery was my great great grand father, and I still have some gold in the form of a wedding ring and a set of cuff links that he found before deciding that selling grog to miners was a more reliable occupation than mining!

And thanks again Whiskers for all the great resources ... many hours of research to get them.

Thanks DR. cheers mate.
