Gwen.....Many of us belong to facebook and perhaps you should also correct your post on the Halls Gap & Grampians Historical Past page
.
Blimey !! I was contacted by a site years ago about this place, mistakenly listed/recorded as my grandmother's (Ada Hemley) and my father's (Albert (Bert) Hemley) general store in Callawadda (A Hemley & Son). I said i had never heard of it..many facts they had were wrong. Now I will try to copy this post and locate that old email. !! WoW !! Gwen Hemley.
No-one on this site contacted you. "
Years ago" .....You joined rootschat on 18 Sep 2013 expressly to comment on our research. When researching one has to go down many avenues to find the correct information. I for one was quoting from electoral rolls and Gerry from Post Office Directory.
it casts the research people are trying to do through
> electoral rolls in a very poor light.
