The property was actually owned by Mr William Long, who owned 6 other properties neighbouring Stephen's. The property is listed as a house and shop, is made of iron and wood, with an iron roof. It is one storey , and has 3 rooms and the gross annual value was 75 pounds. <BR/>If he was living there with his family it would have been a very tight squeeze!! It doesn't give a hint to what he was selling in the shop...I wonder if a directory might give a hint?<BR/><BR/>Lesley ChampionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162342782181768152.post-43142349133338833842008-12-03T09:53:00.000+00:002008-12-03T09:53:00.000+00:00Talk about a circle!!

His father Matthew was another son of Stephen and Mary. Interesting that the family seems centred on Ultimo, NSW even 20 years after Matthew's birth...the cousins must have been aware of each other, and possibly even closely connected! It's exciting to see link ups ocurring !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
