23.01.2022 The Chinese have played a large part in the history of Australia, particularly across the north. Cathy Freemans Who Do You Think You Are has quite a bit about this interesting side of history.

08.01.2022 Ever wonder why one of you ancestors came to Australia? We have just come across an interesting story of a young man who was sent here with a shipment of cattle! Apparently, in 1862, he was just told to come & once here did not want to make the 4 month journey home to Scotland so negotiated a job with the cattle station. He now has many descendants throughout Australia.
