Found myself on Trove
« on: Monday 23 May 22 04:05 BST (UK) »
Many years ago on trove I found a few articles about my grandfather Mick Jeffs who was a representative for the Mapleton area of Maroochy Shire Council in Queensland in the 60's and early 70's. One of them was him meeting Queen Elizabeth.

Whilst searching today for them I found a ad for Panniers and Topbox that I had posted in 2004 in a Queensland BMW motorcycle club magazine.

Still looking for my granddad articles.

Mick
Jeffs - Northamptonshire to Leicestershire to Queensland, Australia
Lewis - Wales to Gloucestershire to NSW & Queensland, Australia
Iddols & Baylis - Gloucestershire
Mary Jones, daughter of James Jones and Eliza - born abt 1864 Staffordshire, died 1948 Queensland, Australia
Dorans - Ireland to Scotland to Queensland, Australia
Ralph - Ireland to Scotland to Queensland, Australia
Jillett - Robert, Transported Convict from Surrey
Christison - Edinburgh,Scotland
Cameron - Edinburgh, Scotland
