SA list of early arrivals attending Col. Light memorial 1906
« on: Saturday 12 April 25 04:56 BST (UK) »
Just saw this on a Facebook post.  It is a Trove newspaper article dated 1906 regarding the Colonel Light memorial ceremony.  It  gives a list of attendees who were the very early SA arrivals in Adelaide - names dates of arrival and names of ships.  Could be of great interest to some people I think.   https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/163080580?searchTerm=%E2%80%9CRobert+Forrest+adelaide%E2%80%9D&fbclid=IwY2xjawJmwm9leHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHt_JXumoc_RSv8iDKqhZmna8qxft5_ZlnIbOvTUQumK4ypZ_s4K5h9CS43WC_aem_OPM1K52GnwLyDEeTNUea2g

Hi.
Thanks for that.
I have bookmarked it for future reference.

South Australia is not abundant in resources for genealogy searches and the listing may be very useful  to those seeking arrival dates for ancestors.
