We are keen to have all Mia Mia families, both present and past, rep- resented in the book. The area we are covering in the book includes the parishes of Spring Plains, Glenhope, and Langworner, including Meadow Valley. These are all Dalhousie County, some in City of Greater Bendigo and some in Mitchell Shire, and all are now included in the Mia Mia CFA brigade area. Several people have asked what we are seeking as contributions. We want the stories that you might tell your children, grandchildren, or great grandchildren about growing up in this area; the stories you have heard from current and former resi- Above.

We’d like to have as many family stories as possible, not complete family histories, just those family stories that relate to Mia Mia. We are able to access many official records such as rate books and school records, as well as old news- paper stories, but we want to include the stories of the people who helped make our community. The official content is relatively easy to obtain, although very time con- suming. The personal stories can only come from you. If you have contact with any Mia Mia residents, past or current, please ask them to contact us, they can email us at [email protected] or phone Kate on 5425 5565. We'll be following up all those who have already contacted us later in the year. Coming soon to an Internet address near you is the new Mia Mia website. It should be operational by the start of September. We will provide the website address in the next Bridge Connection.
