I was rather shocked to read about the activities of my Great-grandfather, James Pusell, in this article in the Saturday 25 July 1896 issue of The Goulburn Penny Post.

What more can I say?

When I get together with my friends I don't mind a tipple. Having read the following article about my great-grandfather, James Pusell, I realise that this might be a hereditary trait.

Trove Tuesday - October 23, 1891

All I can say for this Trove Tuesday post is that my great-grandfather had a big family to feed and clothe.

One hundred and twenty one years ago  my great-grandfather, James Pusell, had a date in Court.
