Hi are you still pursuing the Whellans family history? I am in Melbourne Australia and have just uncovered a treasure trove for you! My grandmother was Evelyn Grace Whellans born 20/08 1899 in Prahran Victoria Australia (she married Reginald Joseph Bowerman Thomspon on 4/08/1919 and they had three children Meryl Kathleen Thompson (my mother) Russell Stanley Thompson and Reginald Neil Thomspon) she had a sister Mary Alison Stewart Whellans born 1883. Their parents were Robert John Whellans and Mary Elizabeth Baxter .  I also found the link with Morebattle as I have a original "Lines written in Memory" of Alison Stewart Whellans (a poem) dated Morebattle 9th June 1876 so I presume my great Aunt was named after her! I have photos of them as children and my middle names are Alison and Eve I also have lots of birth, death, marriage certificates and personal letters and wills! The family predominately live in St Kilda Victoria Australia. My grandmother died in in approx 1947. I would love to hear from either of you two...my email is info@mpgetawayz.com.au Cheers Faith  I also have personal letters written from Morebattle
