incl. As I've probably mentioned before, the book I'm currently working on is mainly about Fremantle in the 1890s. I'm focusing on the lives of two people in particular; C. Y.

Headlines of Old


Trove Tuesday 22nd Mar 2022 TEACHERS TRANSFERRED ISSUE 2, teachers transferred 1901, are your ancestors mentioned?… both country and city. Maybe these names could also be listed in unclaimed mail. It helps to look up the local papers of the times, maybe in TROVE or State Archives.

If by chance, you have any old photos of any school mentioned in these lists, I’d be happy to add them to this post for all to enjoy.

Feel free to share, the title is the link…
