Great to see! This query may be a puzzle. My great grandmother, Catherine Sparks (who married a NSW man Edward Ashcroft) may have been born in Stawell or spent time there. Our family tree investigator cannot find her birth records in Victorian or NSW registries and all we know is that she was born “about 1867”. The only clue relating to Stawell is that a newspaper clipping recording her death in Sydney in 1933 stated that “several natives of Stawell travelled to Sydney for her funeral”.
Does anyone have knowledge of a Sparks family?
Regards,
Tony

Hi Leslie, have just come across your query. There were 2 Sawmills in Stawell/ Pleasant Creek, one owned by Smith and the other by Redden. Stawell Historical Society have detailed files on the mills and the families/ workers.
kind regards
Kate van Dyck
