I only just noticed the Mine's Dept typewriter must have had something wrong with the letter H making it a little unusual to read Here's the map showing the fire location. Sorry my posting is a bit random

Armstrongs

Peter Armstrong
Lyn N Moe A close call, I believe damage to the mine in the earthquake was the reason they left and headed to the Ten Mile ?

Louise Irvine
Peter Armstrong I had thought that they left this mine in 1929.

Peter Armstrong
Louise Irvine Hi Louise I'd say this is the composition of the original Armstrong + Party

Lyn N Moe
Any nth sth lines on this one Peter.

Lyn N Moe
Peter Armstrong, Louise Irvine. Armstrongs did work on the Nth side of the 10 mile before going to the Sth. They started sth side 1931.There is a Armstrong crk on the nth side, possibly that would be the missing yrs from 29.

Louise Irvine
Lyn N Moe Thanks Moe. That sounds like a reasonable explanation of how they filled in before going to the 10 mile.
