Thanks Cup of Life. Everyone here is always so helpful.

That solves that question.

Now just to figure out what the family were doing there (apart from having children that is).

Cheers, Ted

Thanks Cando.

I've bought the certificate.

The place of birth shows Yalinba, Shire of Mount Rouse. I can find it listed in Gazettes but not on a map.

The other entrys on the page are in Penshurst and Boram Boram.

The father's job is listed as Labourer.

So thanks for your help everyone.

Cheers, Ted

Thank you everyone again for your help.

I have now scrolled through the Gazettes and found a map where Penshurst was proclaimed as a township. The map includes an area called Yalimba.    So apart from why they went there for 2 years, I can now picture where they lived.

Once again the gang at Rootschat are amazing and can solve what I think are the most unsolveable questions.

I am declaring this one SOLVED.

Woo Hoo. Thanks again Roots Chat Friends.

Luv, Ted.

Perhaps one of the reasons Wm moved to Ballarat.
