I am very excited. I am researching my paternal grandmother's family and feel I have found 'the author' Nana spoke about. Her father Henry John Fredrick Handley was born in Calcutta India 11th November 1846. It is believed he was murdered in Sydney Australia. His body was never found. However his daughter, my Nana, was a wonderful storyteller and artist. She encourage me to write. I would like a copy of Mrs Handley's journal. How can I buy one? walk gently Christine Engel christine.engel@hotmail.com
