Hi all, Been doing a big research on an american settler in the Australian gold rush.All started with a wall bracket with writting on it.I have the family wills ,land tax records,grave sites and other info.I think theres over 200 pages from historical records.All free and theres on copy right on them either.

This the start of a major project that all ready goes back to when i post the bracket some 4 years ago.This the Thomas James Connelly Hunt.I have lost count of sites and places of others who new this family but just seems to go on and on.Got some great finds along the way.Even followed a chiness connection.First is the pic of bracket and then some of the records and quite a lot of gold and other relics.
