Nostalgic memories of Monreith's local history

Share your own memories of Monreith and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

In 1839, a family that seemed to include parents and 3 sons, named Fergusson arrived in South Australia. Within a few years they had taken up land near Adelaide and were farming very successfully. One of the 3 sons had 13 children who made it to adulthood, and at least one of the brothers had a similar number of children. The farm was called Monreith. I would love to know anything about this farm and if it still exists. Are there any Fergussons still about?
