Australia Day posts (you don't have to be Australian to join in!)

For those of you who don't read Shelley's excellent blog Twigs of Yore and who have a connection to Australia I am posting this link to her post: Australia Day posts (you don't have to be Australian to join in!) 

Shelley has invited all with a connection to Australia to:
Find the earliest piece of documentation you have about an ancestor in Australia. If you don't have an Australian ancestor, then choose the earliest piece of documentation you have for a relative in Australia.
On Wednesday 26 January 2011 post your answers to these questions:
  1. What is the document? 
  2. Do you remember the research process that lead you to it? How and where did you find it?
  3. Tell us the story(ies) of the document. You may like to consider the nature of the document, the people mentioned, the place and the time. Be as long or short, broad or narrow in your story telling as you like! 
Send Shelley the link to your post and she will  prepare a list of all the posts and publish it on Twigs of Yore.

I'd love to hear what you have to say so I encourage you to say G'day in comments on my posts.

Sorry I have turned word verification on but I am just getting too much spam to allow comments without this feature.
