Hi I am researching Little hill street fire.

Post by Billsgirl »

I found this site by accident.I have been researching my family tree for quite a while now, but recently a younger family member became interested, he was particularly interested in a story we know that involved our family, a terrible fire that killed six people five of them children. This unfortunate event happened on Christmas morning 1863. He did a search on Google and came up with some info on it! I was amazed, It had taken me years to research it. I am now trying to find the people who knew of this tragedy, one person was from Australia. The name I am researching here is Gameson. Don't know if anyone can help?

Hi Billsgirl, welcome to the forum
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.
