Early Settlers - Call for Photos

We're planning a display of early settlers but are sadly lacking in photographs. If you know of a photograph of any of the following people (plus spouses and family), please let us know.
  • Matthew Scott (owned all of Otautau and Scotts Gap, 1850s?)
  • Henry Cassels (first postmaster)
  • James Quin (wagoner)
  • Jimmy Dodds (built first accomodation house, later postmaster)
  • James Clark (had the mail run between Otautau and Riverton, 1862)
  • Roderick McIvor
  • Roderick Campbell
  • Robert and Catherine Campbell (shopkeepers and postmaster, Main St, 1874)
  • Mr and Mrs Daniel Lynch (blacksmith)
  • Mrs John Swan
  • James Henderson
We're open Wednesdays and Sundays, 2pm-4pm, and by request. Your comments are always welcome!
