Thomas Hay, Saddler in 1936 (Photo courtesy Weekly Times, Melbourne 4 April 1936) Thomas Hay owned land which is now 14, 16 & 18 Pioneer Avenue but unless he was renting, I cannot find a connection to 56 High Street - yet...

1941, the house with the picket fence and J Banner Boot repairer located at 56 High Street, demolished in the early 1950s.

One of several posters created for Jim Anderson in the 1950s - now on display at Lindisfarne Dry Cleaners, who bought the business from Doug Boote in 1999

• Chain of Title
• 1847 Grant to George William Barnard

Finally a breakthrough - Grant 21-115-4484 dated the 11th of January 1847. George Barnard had many grants in Launceston but it appears this grant in New Norfolk was forgotten about when he died in 1864! This will be very interesting.
