WiggyHobbes Scavenger Hunt...Everyone Welcome To Join In

[Wiggy]

nearly two years later - and still searching

Just a catch up - I've recently found a news item in a local paper of Geelong stating that a ship the Prince Albert ran into - or was run into -  a ship Keera in the Yarra River Melbourne - both bound for Geelong - Mate on the Prince Albert was David Duncan - mine I hope - - - the odd thing is that the mate on the Keera was John Yeoman!!   I suspect it was David's B i L!!

OH boy - I wonder if that was Mary Jane's husband.  And I wonder if this little contretemps led to both 'mates' deciding to take their families (wives being sisters) and going to the gold fields!   

Don't reopen the thread - just letting all you wonderful scavengers know!
