Have come here today - thinking of my Uncle Keith (dec) - on chatting recently with my cousin Barry (Keith's youngest son), he pointed out to me that his Dad had lived here for awhile when his father bought into a butcher business in Morawa back in the 1940's. Roger and I enjoy wandering the main streets checking out if there is any history notation of this - the history museum is shut today. I ring a couple of people listed on the Museum door sign as contacts - 1st one Peter, tells me to ring the 2nd one Sue. I chat to Sue who is obviously passionate about the towns history - she can find no record of George Tonissen (or any Tonissen). Oh well, just means that there may not have been good records to follow the Tonissen trail...
We enjoy checking out another John Hawes church and the small dwelling (yes it is!) John built for himself beside the church.Read more
