Article on Walker Family of Reid st, Rutherglen about some of them being home for xmas

only available at the Rutherglen Library in Victoria on Mircofilm, I'm hoping someone on here lives in Rutherglen and can help. Unfortunatly trove has only the 1910s

Maybe you could try emailing them, they may be able to do a look up for you.
rutherglenlibrary@indigoshire.vic.gov.au

I know the librarians at my local library in Sydney have been happy to help when I have asked for a look up of old newspaper items.

I know the librarians at my local library in Sydney have been happy to help when I have asked for a look up of old newspaper items.

I have since done this, they forwarded the email/request to the Rutherglen Historical society, who are now wanting a $40 fee for 'search' and providing a scan of the image. Which to me seems a little steep. Oh well I can go through the state library of Victoria if no one on here is in the Rutherglen area

$40 for a search does sound a bit steep!

Hopefully you will have some luck with the State Library, or a local RootsChatter.  :D
