Follow Friday - Australian FamilySites - Our Family Lines

My selection for this week's Follow Friday Australian FamilySite is different from my earlier two as it uses a piece of proprietry software, SecondSite, to produce a website from the author's TMG data.

I am not sure of the name of this site.  It could be "A Tribute to our Pioneering Ancestors Who Immigrated to Australia 1841 - 1883- They came, they stayed &  they prospered", or "Our Family Lines" or "They came, they stayed."

Using SecondSite enables those with little knowledge of website creation  to create an attractive,  linked and searchable site. It is disappointing that Second Site does not appear to give the user an option to search by date, place or name. It could be because the user has selected to disable these options that may be available.
