Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ebenezer Hamilton lived on a property called Seaview in Croome, and from June 1897 to December 1913 he recorded every monetary transaction he undertook in a cashbook; 270 pages with about 11 entries per page. The cashbook has been handed down to Ebenezer’s great granddaughter, author Lorraine Neate, and at the April meeting of the Kiama Historical society, Lorraine took the audience on a tour of the cashbook, using it to provide a window into the day to day lives of a local family at the beginning of the 20th century, and a snapshot of businesses in the local area.
