Trove Tuesday - Found in the Magazines

 For today's blog post we looked into the Magazines and Newsletters category at Trove. While we usually turn to the Newspapers category for our research we may also find mentions of local people in the other categories on Trove.

This first article from Oliver McDonald of Warner's Bay was found in the children's section of a magazine. As well as giving an insight into the character of this lad the article contained some pertinent genealogical information.
