I have been reading with interest about Robert and Alice Story that owned Venlaw Station.  My g.great uncle William Young who immigrated from Scotland worked for them.  He died about 1930 at age 89.  He never married.  I have a letter saying that Mrs. Story and her daughters took care of him as he was bed ridden for a while before he died.  I would love to get in touch with any relative of Alice or her daughters and find out more information about William.  His funeral was held at Venlaw Station, and he was buried in the village of Wyndham.  I was just wondering about the possibly of finding his grave and maybe get a photo of it.  I was also thinking there might be photo's of William somewhere.
Any information would be appreciated.
Margaret.
