Shamrock Hotel and Gorman family, Grahamstown
« on: Monday 04 July 22 01:33 BST (UK) »
I’m researching the Shamrock Hotel (earlier known as the Victoria Hotel) in Grahamstown near Adelong New South Wales. It was owned from 1879 until it closed in 1933 by the Gorman family. After the closure, it continued as a residence but has now been demolished (not sure of the date).

I’d love to make contact with anyone who has connections with the family and the hotel. I’m interested in information (and photos) about the hotel, and the family. The attached photo from the early 1900s (prior to 1904) shows the hotel with Rose Gorman on the left.

You may have this obituary, but as it has family information, it might prompt others.
