No-one told me family history could be so exhausting. I am currently corresponding with McGill College in Montreal, Canada about Duncan George; the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, also about George Duncan; the Isle of Wight Record Office about Caswell’s on the Isle of Wight; Guildford Crematorium about the grave of Selina Cleopatra Ann Caswell; and the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television about an unidentifed carte de visite (it has Armidale written on the reverse which doesn’t seem to exisit). And I’m waiting for Friday so I can go and pick up a marriage certificate from the Family Records Centre.
At least I always have a full inbox.

September 6, 2005 at 7:24 pmOops. I thought it didn’t exist! Like I said above, it is on the reverse of a Victorian carte de visite I have. I thought if I knew where the place was it would help me identify the person in it.
So, where is Armidale?
