The family name is CAFE.. haven't been to that cemetery Alan. My father hails from Coonabarrabran but his ancestors & cousins were all around Coonamble, Armatree, Gilgandra..... John CAFE, my 3x great grandfather is buried on Beerbong station.

looks like you come from a long line of Bushies Ewie, Armatree is the only one I hadn`t heard of, and where else in the world would you find a property named Beerbong!, a great mate of mine came from Coonamble, you can take the boy out of the bush but you can`t take the bush out of the boy!
