Moo...50 years ago, I believe those were the $10 pommie years. I was a 10 yr old child n went from UK to Australia. Australia was just flooded with newcomers. We settled near Clifton beach for a while, absolutely beautiful area. I miss it...moo

Surely they are going to be able to say something more about the clothes/personal effects.
50yrs is a long time and there have been a lot of changes in what people wear and even in manufacturing techniques during that time.
I wonder if it's possible to date the remains a little more precisely by analysing the belongings.
Would be interesting to know what LE have done so far.
