601 Excerpt from an email from Jan McAlpin:
From Jan Mc Alpin
To Dwight Thompson

Subject Re: Proposed Change: ? McAlpin (I2554)
As far as I know, the musical streak, or ear runs thru the family, and either you
got it, or you ain?t. Uncle Bob played the violin, until he lost an arm at the
sawmill the boys ran at Gembrook. As mentioned previously, Uncle Norman played the
guitar, the banjo, and the saxophone and probably could fudge it on the clarinet
as well.. Mainly guitar and banjo. As for Uncle Ron, don?t remember, and Alan died
in 1946, or thereabouts. Musically, there was an pedal organ owned by Normans grandmother
that got passed down thru the girls. Great aunt Helen? And Normans sister wrote ?flowery?
poetry. I listened to a recitation once. Politely. As one did.
I did meet a great aunt, Great Uncle Roberts widow at Seymour, at her house on Station
Street called Banavie, as far as I remember. In the 1960?s.

Dad was an older father, so to meet one of his aunts was in retrospect amazing.
He was 49 when I arrived, and 52 when my brother was born.

So one grows up between two generations.

Anyway, sorry to ramble, runs in the family, hoho.

Cheers,
Janm

As far as I know, up until 1923, Norman grew up at Tooradin. The Mcalpin boys also
ran a chaff cutter down there, hired out, along with their labour, around the district
for a time. Uncle Ron had bought land there, and my grandfather then also bought
land, along Muddy Gates Road.

Have gone and visited Uncle Norman at Springvale. And his mother, my grandmother,
Anne Bain, who is in a numbered section on the left of the main gate when you drive
in. Should I be there for any reason, I shall do so again.

The one I can?t find is my grandfather John McAlpin. I know he died in Dandenong
Private hospital in 1923. I have one photo of him which I must put up in Ancestry.
It, and a photo of Norman were the only photos Dad had. Other Mcalpins will probably
have more.

Cheers, Janm
