Drawings of Warrawang Houses: Bob & Sybella Murray

In 1986, a family reunion was held for the Murray Family at "Warrawang" between Lithgow and Bathurst NSW. The hosts were Bruce and Eunice Murray who were the owners at the time, the property being continuously occupied by Murrays from the day it was selected by James Murray. During 150 years of occupancy there had been a succession of homes as well as generations. Bob Murray from Helidon Q, was one of the reunion attendees, and he subsequently created pencil drawings of the buildings as well as of our ancestors. Shown are Jock's Hut; the 4th Warrawang House from the rear; the 5th and last Warrawang House; and Minna Murray's sketch of the first Warrawang House built before 1850. Bob Murray and Sybella Murray are pictured.
