Trove Tuesday - Liberated Sheep
Here's an article with an uncommon misspelling of Ku-ring-gai (a double r).
It must have been quite big news, or just a slow news day in Dubbo to have made a newspaper so far away.
I like the phrase "some sheep were killed, and a number liberated about the country".
Some have asked us about Trove Tuesday.
Well, it was started last year by blogger Amy Houston at Branches, Leaves and Pollen to celebrate the wonderful NLA resource Trove.
Trove is a remarkable resource that helps all historians, both family and local fill in the stories and add a bit of extra 'colour' to their research.
This wonderful resource could also help if you are entering our 50th anniversary Writing Ku-ring-gai History competition.
