Family Stories

The Centenary committee has received a number of requests from former residents to record their family story.  Whilst this is a wonderful idea it is rather difficult for the already busy committee to oblige.

The committee asks that representatives of a family group submit their “Family Story” by downloading and completing the form below.  These stories will be displayed in a folder at the Merbein Historical Centre during the Centenary Celebrations.
