Ouch! He must have been unable to work for a few weeks following that.They didn't have sick leave then did they?

Oh my goodness! Sounds like he was very lucky to have survived the accident.

A very pretty ad as well as a family find. The AWW is a great source but I think the ones they've digitised came from NSW/Vic not Qld.

Oh my goodness Sharon... what a wonderful story and such magnificent buildings and incredible craftsmanship shown in that book. You must be very proud.

Wonderful post, Sharon. Very useful and practical as well - and very encouraging as well.

Belated Blogiversary wishes, Sharon.

Sorry I missed you big day but my wishes for a super year of blogging are no less sincere.

2013-01-28T19:06:38.731+11:00

I have copies of many other letters which have been written in Old German. I'd love to be able to get them translated one day. There could be up to 50 of them written over about a 40 year period.

2013-01-28T19:04:13.235+11:00

I've been thinking about what you could buy for £5 in those days. Pauleen I agree that a blog allows us to add further finds. It has also allowed members of the family who I couldn't locate during earlier research to make contact.

I don't know which one I'd pick but perhap...

2013-01-28T18:56:49.408+11:00

I don't know which one I'd pick but perhaps it would be a master learner. I just love to learn about all sorts of things. I need to know and love the challenge of the search.

Great synthesis from a great educator!

This is a fantastic post, Sharon. So much of this resonates with me - If I had to choose one it would be "transfer the power" or should it be "be a master learner"

2013-01-28T17:51:14.910+11:00

I knew keeping all those cards would come in useful one day. I don't know it I have one for my third blogiversary or not. I stopped looking through them all when I found this one.

Sharon,

It must have been fun to find that card!! I had to wonder if you have found one for next year. I'm counting my Blogiversary in months--four months and counting.

Regards, Grant

Happy 2!!! Love the card. It's so great to have something like that to pass on.

Wow, your 2nd birthday card. Your mother was a marvel.

2013-01-25T07:19:52.224+11:00

Pauleen yes it would have been a difficult time. I have an idea that her daughter, my great grandmother was looked after by another family. I remember reading something a long time ago but can't find where I read it. I should also have added a link to my other post about Jane McColm. http://genealogymatters2me.blogspot.com.au/2011/09/my-great-great-grandmother-jane-mccolm.html

2013-01-24T16:05:10.265+11:00

Hi Sharon, I too found your post inspiring so I've done a little analysis myself based on your ideas and it has really got me thinking. I haven't done my husband's side of the family yet so I've just concentrated on my own ancestors. My convict ancestor first to come out to Australia in 1816. http://ancestralresearchjournal.blogspot.com/2013/01/crunching-numbers-in-preparation-for.html
Thanks for the inspiration, Sandra

What a great family treasure - and as always, a whole new list of questions!
And you've reminded me, I really need to get back on FlyLady's wagon... I fell off months ago.

How terribly sad for all of them, and so young.
