Troops of the 57 Inf Bn waiting to board the Demosthenes on 17 July 1915.
Amongst the men on the dock at Port Melbourne that day was the underage Private Alfred Newell of Kensington, whose youth may have been a factor in his poor service record.
I am a community historian (ie, not paid) from Essendon. The content of my Empire Called database (see the link to the PBWorks website) is the result of nearly 25 years' research. The Empire Called blog is a companion for the PBWorks website of the same name.
Time Travellers in Essendon and Flemington is set up in the same way, with a website and a blog to report additions to the website. The website is a vehicle to publish longer pieces of research that are too long for newsletters, various indexes, and photos of local history interest. You may find something of use for your research.
