| Australian Researcher and 8 Lower Common South Putney. Hello to all members and thank you for allowing me the opportunity to post. I stumbled upon your forum after undertaking a search for a house called Ettrick in Putney. I happened to find Michael Whitehall's old post from 2010 and hence this follow up. I believe the house in question (no longer in existence I gather) may be the home of one George Henry Haydon, artist, writer and one time resident of early Melbourne 1840-1845. Haydon spent a considerable amount of time in the Western Port Bay area (close toMelbourne) and this is a topic I have written on. I was keen to obtain a photograph of Haydon's home as the name Ettrick relates to a small cutter that used to sail in Western Port and deliver much needed supplies to Haydon when he was living briefly on the rather rugged and deserted French Island. As the name Ettrick is an unusual one and as I know Haydon's home was in Putney (he died in 1891). I think 8 Lower Common must be the one. Hopefully some of the members may be able to assist. My sincere thanks, John |
