Publisher's Synopsis
I was born in 1912 and reared at Dyers Crossing on the Wallamba River in New South Wales, Australia. My Grandmother was the daughter of a young Englishman, he was sent out to the colonies by his family for colonial experience like so many young men from England. It is believed
however that he was murdered on the gold fields at Bendigo My Grandmothers Stepfather, Mr Rolf, was a jack-of-all-trades. In his time he took to droving, station managing, fencing and dam sinking. He travelled a lot by horse and bullock dray, taking his family along with a couple of goats and some fowls when conditions were suitable.
