MARYBOROUGH FIELD TRIP

Prospects are now forming of a trip to MARYBOROUGH. Mary Josephine, Melinda’s daughter, went to live in Maryborough with her husband, Mr Yates and she died there in 1881 in her early 30s. The next field trip looks promising and perhaps there will be some YATES descendants with information we have not yet found. It seems probable to RA that a mother and grandmother would write to a daughter at such a distance moreso than the family living close by. Queensland here we come !
