James Frederick Star
« on: Tuesday 28 August 18 06:11 BST (UK) »
Hi,

The Granya Pioneer Museum has just acquired for our collection, a horse drawn wagon which was used by James Star 1852-1930. He apparently carried supplies from the Albury Wodonga towns up the Murray River to settlers along the way. He selected land in the Granya area in 1879 and established himself there.

I am trying to find any information about his days carrying freight, he seems to have had a Hawkers Licence in 1913. Can anyone find any mention of him in Sands Directory or anything similar.

We already have details of his arrival in Australia and his family so there is no need to search for any family information.

Thanks mum mum
