John Yates, a railway fireman of Moonee Ponds, enlisted on 1 September 1916 and embarked with 5 Infantry Bn one month later. Rod Martin tells the unfortunate story of John Yates, who had a short war, killed by friendly fire.
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.
