Di, Great work sorting and persevering it must be so satisfying. II will make notes on what you did as I still have to finish a story on a ship's log I transcribed, she traded between Sydney and Richmond River (there was no Ballina) but that is another story. What I wanted to ask "Do you know where the Moffat came from in Frederick's name? Why I ask is, I compiled an article for our TFHG Newsletter on James Moffat Reid 1881-1915. His father was John Holmes Reid son of James Johnstone Reid. JM Reid was named after JH Reid's business partner John Moffat. They became very wealthy from tin mining at Emmaville (outside Tenterfield) and then in North Qld. Thank you. Julie
