Biographies

After searching out the best merino flocks in Germany, Eliza Forlong travelled with her husband and two sons to Launceston, arriving in 1831. Eliza managed their property, 'Kenilworth', while her husband maintained business interests in a nearby flour mill and sheep run. After the death of her husband, Eliza moved to Port Phillip and lived with her son William at his station, Seven Creeks, in Euroa.
