Hi Andrea, It sounds as if it could be my great uncle, John Lloyd Digby. I will dig out the records I have and confirm his Regiment number. (I recently moved house and there is stuff everywhere). I am fascinated to know your interest. Cheers Penny

Hi just read your comment. My interest is. If confirmed, the above mentioned wrote a lovely letter to my g grandmother about her son my grandfather informing her he had been wounded during WW1. at Ypres. My grandfather did survive but was never the same again. I have this original letter, it was handed down to me.

Hi Penny, love the website and all the research u have done. I am a descendant of Harold MacKnight, Edith Veysey brother. I am finding it hard to find any information on her or her brothers n sisters. I would love to find out more about her and her MacKnight siblings if u have any information.

Cheers

Hi Geoffrey,Great to hear from you. I completely forgot to come back to the messages until now. It has been a big year with the death of my mother at 93. I do have some Macknight information I could pass on to you. Maybe if you give me your email address it would be easier. Lok forward to hearing from you. Let me know how you are descended from Harold. Cheers

Penny, my condolences for your loss. Harold MacKnight is my paternal great grandfather. Before my father passed away we were researching the MacKnight family history and came up with a lot of dead ends. My email address is geoffmack@me.com. Great to hear from you.

Hi Penny, just wondering if you have forgotten about me! I haven't heard back from you in regards to passing on MacKnight family history.

Cheers

Hi Geoffrey, After a very long absence am back to the website, and it is to my shame that I have not been in touch with you for a long time. Can you get me up to date on where we were at? I have a sneaking suspicion you may have seen the reading of Edith's letters we put on in Melbourne? Am I right? Things have really cranked up with the show on the road, recently for a festival in Brisbane. It has been very well received and is developing as we go, now with visual and aural components. We are planning for more events in the future, and would love to put it on in Sydney, although we have a few other places in our sights. I am coming down to Victoria in September, but not sure yet if I will get as far as Melbourne. Just in case, could you email me your mobile no. and if I get to Melbourne, we can meet up. I am coming
Did I ever pass on the Macknight info to you? (Have just gone back to emails and found you. Maybe we can keep in touch through emails?) I have photos of some of the Macknights and Morans, including Edward Perry Macknight.
Look forward to hearing from you. Penny
