Hi,
Helen here again finally! Have been extremely busy and just haven't had time to get on site.  Have tried to ring Fredy but no answer. Will keep trying. Eggdish, will send you a email with attachment of a newspaper clipping of someone I had no idea of who it was, but through the history you emailed me I know know why my Nana kept it.  Deeiluka, I suspect I know the reason why your daughter found the items at an auction but will email you re this.  Sorry I have taken so long to get back to you.
Cheers H

Hi Dee,
It is all still a bit confusing, but doing the reply thing.
Cheers H (aka Helen - yes the aka thing is still happening-must be a family tradition)

Hi Eggddish, Fredy and Deeiluka,
 Helen here, just doing the reply thing. I'm not very tech savvy so took me a while to remember what I did last time.
Cheers.

G'day Fredy,
I have only just discovered this site. My name is Helen and Luke Holman was my g g grandfather as well. My mum was Gwenyth, she was the doctor. The Taringa link is correct, mum was born there. I do have some old family photos, a few of which I have no idea of which side of the family they are from, ? Wadeson/Innes or Sibthorpe/Bailey  I also have a copy of newspaper tributes to both George Richard and his father Robert Hudson.  I never met my grandfather or my Uncle Jack, but knew Nana and Aunt Beet.  My mother was quite an intrepid traveller for her time and after returning from Cardiff, she worked back in Adelaide for about a year, then she applied and was accepted for a job in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea. This is where she met my father and where I was born.  I see in your post that you talk about a book being edited, I would be most interested in purchasing a copy. I am not very tech savvy but will attempt to attach the newspaper articles mentioned.  Would love to share some more family history.
Cheers Helen
