Brides and Grooms from Awaba

Bloggers from around Australia take part in Trove Tuesday, an activity in which researchers use content from Trove Australia as inspiration for blog posts. These posts are shared on social media using the hashtag #trovetuesday.

The LMFHG blog will from time to time publish TroveTuesday posts in which we will share articles about people who lived, worked and played in the Lake Macquarie area.  

In our first post we are sharing stories of some brides and grooms from Awaba.
