[ Home ] [ Up ] [ Dedication to 'Mick' Constable ] [ Dedication to Dawn McMaster ]

The majority of the articles in the 'Tuncurry' book were written by 'Mick' Constable and became a weekly entry in the 'Advocate'. Also, all sketches are the work of 'Mick'.

The subjects of 'The Memorial Hall', 'Porter's Mill' and the 'Fern Shed' were written by Dawn McMaster, while Bob Mann wrote about 'Darawank' and 'Darawank School' and the 'Failford Centenary'.

I thank Carmen Nixon for the loan of photos and her information on the 'Bonventis'. To John and Joe Ohma for information on their father and his engineering works. And to Max Sciacca, in writing on his family.
