Francis Street was the address of the Brooklyn Migrant Hostel.  My family stayed there 1959 and early 1960.
I believe the area is nopw called Hobsons something.Morag Fryer

Thank you for your reply Morag
I think my parents and siblings were at the hostel  around 1954. They then moved to the Latrobe Valley  2 hrs east of Melbourne.
Were you at the hostel? If you have any memories I would love to hear them.

I wonder who might have any documents regarding the hostel?
Thanks again
Kerry
