Some people on the gold fields in North Queensland moved on to Western Australia when gold was discovered there.Judy Websterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09730547717403140047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2004413378964449250.post-80522317464401879752012-07-07T23:31:22.455+10:002012-07-07T23:31:22.455+10:00Well Done Judy.
