Great to hear from you Robyn. Mum is going well. No family secrets to share from her point of view. It's good to read about the family. Jan and I now have an interest in researching both Mum and Dad's family trees and hope to spend more time in future days doing so.

Just a quick note. My mother Beryl Alchin (Maddison) is 92 next month and is the daughter of Alfred James Maddison, son of Hannah Eleanora Motley nee Maddison. She is the only one of her family still alive today, and is in a nursing home in Adelaide, South Australia, still very much 'with it'.
I am Beryl's youngest daughter, and my sister and I have a great interest in looking into mum's family. My sister can remember going with Mum to meet Hannah many years ago when she lived at Norwood (? in her daughter's house). Today I spoke with a Peter Motley, son of Geof Motley (a famous Port Adelaide football family) who also knows a bit of the family history. I know Mum's father (Alfred) was a mad Port fan, so that all makes sense because he lived in the Port Adelaide area.
From what we know, and from what we have gleaned from my Mum, it was Hannah who cut herself off from the family once Alfred (her son) died, not the Maddison family cutting her off.
I hope we can hear further from you.
