  Histories » Slide Show		Article about Elizabeth Jane Moffat Transcribed from photocopy of article obtained from Peter Moffat
  		Article describing the wedding of George Moffat and Ann Susan Fahey Article probably transcribed by Peter Moffat, but it doesn't contain a reference for where it came from. A newspaper most likely, but it's not known for sure.
  		Article from "The Clutha Leader" 21 January 1908 Article from a transcription of a newspaper article. Copy obtained from Peter Moffat, so presumably he did the transcription.
  		Obituary from "The Clutha Leader" for Ellen Houliston This obituary is transcribed from "The Clutha Leader" of sometime in May (after the 15th obviously) - possibly by Peter Moffat.
