This collection of stories, facts and photos is about a family living in Otago, New Zealand in the last half of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth century. The family lived in Gabriels Gully, Lawrence, Otago where the Gold Rush of the 1860s began. The stories centre on Thomas McMullan and Beatrice Howe-Johns, and their 8 children. Between them they lived from the 1870s until the 2000s. As with most families, their lives were both ordinary and special. Their ordinary lives helped to build a country and their special lives formed us who are descended from them. Rather than find gold they made it - gold of the family type.This second edition adds significant new information about theThompson family in Ireland and their migration to New Zealand which,for some members, was via the goldfields of Victoria, Australia.
