Hi chilterngirl and annette, I'm also descendant of Ellen Kirk and Joseph Mason through their daughter Ellen Mason who married Thomas Dunn and subsequently moved to Tas. 

I was in Chiltern today and found your posts about Ellen Kirk and Joseph Mason back in 2009 and am hoping you may still be on line!!

Also chilterngirl: I'm local to Wodonga and would be interested in catching up and exchanging information if you're interested?
