GEORGE CHARLES AND VICTORIA ISABELLA STUDD
AND THEIR DESCENDANTS IN AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND AND USA
2003 celebrates the 150th anniversary of George and
Isabella’s arrival and marriage in 1853 in Melbourne, Victoria.
After travelling the gold diggings, and in 1863, they settled in Amphitheatre,
a small town between Avoca and Ararat in western Victoria.
A family reunion picnic day was held in the Public Hall, Amphitheatre
on Saturday March 29, 2003, when just over 100 people came.
The entrance to the Hall is marked by two pillars,
with the names of those locals who enlisted for service in World War 1
and 2.
