[chrismon]

Just adding a bit more

1903 NSW Electoral Roll, for Gwyir, with polling place of Walgett and surname of KENNA (note, NO ages, NO address shown apart from Walgett)

Bridget, Female, domestic duties
Elenia  Veronica, Female, domestic duties
Johanna, Female, domestic duties
Maria, Female, domestic duties
Nora, Female, domestic duties

Cheers,

JM

The more the merrier JM.I have come across these names before.

N.S.W. births to  Richard & Norah Kenna at Albury

Johanna  1876

Bridget     1877

 These may warrant more attention  I had thought the distance was too great   bye for now Chris

Hi Chris

That distance is quite a long way, but its not that far really, for a drover ... I have forebears who in the late 19th C were droving stock from just about anywhere in Qld (Winton, Blackall, etc) to anywhere in western NSW (Burke, Walgett etc)  and into Victoria and to Sth Aust...  Albury was sometimes the town where some of my lot rested between contracts...   Its worth considering those Albury births ...

Cheers,

JM
