Thomas Gidley of El Dorado Station

John contacted me via Gooogle, so I will add this to my to-do list. The gumleaf painting by A W Eustace shows Black Dog Creek flowing through or near the El Dorado run station in NE Victoria:

I stumbled across your web site (http://eustace.id.au) after doing a Google search on my 2nd Great Grandfather Thomas Gidley, who came to Australia from Cork in 1851. On his death certificate it mentions that he was a squatter. On his wife's death certificate it mentions their place of residence as El Dorado Station near Chiltern. They had nine children, one of them also a Thomas Gidley. I was wondering if you know whether there is any connection with my relatives and the Thomas Gidley you mention in the "Black Dog CreekChronicle".

Gathering further genealogy resources

I now have three new sources of information to add soon to the Black Dog Creek Chronicle.
Ron Eustice Minneapolis USA and Jim Eustice SA Australia edit and distribute the "Eustace Families Post" as a global source.
Second my cousin the Aussie artist Brian Allison, via his sister Fay, sent some photos he took at the grave site of A W Eustace in Chiltern, VIC.
Then Joan & Jeff Crisdale provided some interesting history on a Garlick-Eustace connection from history of Mary Rose's family as a PDF file.

All be added soon.
