Title: SOUTH AUSTRALIA School look up Please
Post by: oskandy on Wednesday 22 October 14 08:56 BST (UK)

hI
I am trying to locate what School my ancestor would have gone to in S.A
"Oliver John Drought MEE " and siblings .    -between the period of 1878 till 1888
They lived at Norman St, which may have been the Police Station as his father was Constable John MEE
and also  BLYTH PLAINS  were John MEE was listed as a farmer.

Any help to find what would have been the nearest School and /or were to get records for that time.
Thanks for the help
Jen  Vic.

Hi Jen,
Some information about Blyth Plains School here:
http://www.slsa.sa.gov.au/manning/pn/b/blyth.htm
scroll down the page about half way.

Clare History Group  -   http://community.history.sa.gov.au/clare-regional-history-group
would probably have information to help. Clare is about 15 minutes from Blyth.
