1880s - Depression Work in Research - the creation of the aquaduct34 viewsLocal farmers had to supplement incomes where possible, especially during the Great Depression of the late 1880's. At that time, able men travelled far and wide in an effort to bring in extra money. One of the Depression initiatives was the building of the aquaduct that carried water from the Maroondah reservoir though the Eltham and Research areas and ended at Reservoir.. This photo shows a gang of men, including my grandfather Michael Carrucan (so I was told by older family members) working at Research.

1870s late - Bridget Lane (nee Carrucan) with one of her children29 viewsBridget Lane (nee Carrucan) 1858-1949 with one of her children.

The two other figures are Mick Carrucan (who married Mary Sweeney in 1910) and Frank Carrucan, his cousin (who married Kas Sweeney in 1915). We surmise that Frank is either visiting Eltham prior to marrying Kas in December 1915 or they are already married.
