Vic place of birth Sydney Fla
« on: Saturday 09 June 18 08:28 BST (UK) »

Hi

I have a Victorian Birth Registration in 1859 and the place of birth was listed as, SYDNEY FLA.

Maybe around the Beechworth area.

Can anyone help with where SYDNEY FLA was.

Thanks
Gerry

Could be Woodvale which was known as Sydney Flat from the 1850s to the 1920s?

Thanks M, looks like it could the correct place and it fits in pretty well with the family gold prospecting, but of way from Beechworth but people moved about from find to find.
