Yes I can do this - a foundation stone laid by F R Esnouf Esq.
There would be plenty of these names in the Channel Islands - Jersey as that name was quite common there. It is a beautiful place and we missed out on visiting there because the weather was unkind to us.

Thanks for this one Gullivers Travels54

Took a bit to track down the required photo for this one. But a wet day today has given us time off the many outdoor projects on the go and time to look through the thousands of photos to find the one needed.
In 2013 our trip to the 'big island' took us through Gunning in NSW. A great little town with a lovely little free camp area that even had free hot showers.
And right in the middle of town at S34 46.938 E149 16.003 was Bailey's garage. So of course a photo was taken which luckily can now be used to make a geocaching find.
Thanks, Beetles2 or Pam and Daryl Bailey.

Well thought I'd have to do a local drive to get a photo for this one but found one from back in 2012 knew we'd taken a photo but forgot when we went here.

This one was take at Norseman, WA, there is also a Morgan Place here in Bunbury, Morgan Court in Easton (5km away, Morgan Court in Australind (10km away) and the town of Morgan in South Australia. Have been to all these Morgan places.

GCA 3,302. Another neat locationless completed.

Fitzpatrick Trackhead is part of the Hume and Hovel Walking Track just west of Yass NSW. There is a great Camping area there, with a few GC caches nearby. I have seen a few other areas with my name, including a street not far from where I live now in Goulburn. Fitzpatrick Inn in Tasmania which is near Fitzpatrick Lane has already been taken by Sol de Lune (FitzBastard).

TFTC Gullivers Travels54 !!

Our surname is not coming in Australia, but i know that there is a Dusinkweg in The Netherlands where I was born. O=I have seen photos and I probably have a photo with relatives standing under the sign. But all our photos ate in storage,so I have resorted to a picture from Google Earth The location for this sign is just outside the Dutch village of Denekamp at N52 23.950 E006 54.503. If you google the name there are newspaper articles about twirl happening around the town on this Road.
All i really know is that our family did originate from that area. I have not had the opportunity to visit this spot, but hope to in the next year or two.

This is an Inn in Westbury Tasmania where my wife and I have stayed a few times. Very quaint with old world charm. Restaurant serves great meals and the beer from the bar is cold. Look forward to staying again sometime.

Thanks for something different GT54...
