The next Speaker at the Podium
February 28th 7pm Lane Cove Library
Bill McLaughlin
Stories from the Black Inn
Bill McLaughlin, former President of the Lane Cove Historical Society, has created a two-volume study, drawing on the lives his own ancestors and those of his late wife, Elaine. Bill discovered that he and Elaine both had convicts in their past ancestries. The two volumes, according to Bill “take you on a journey back to the days of sailing ships, of crime, punishment and redemption, stories true and false, through one hundred and one nights of information and entertainment. The stories you are told are based on real events and real people in Great Britain and Australia.” Bill will entertain and amuse us with his tales of the past.
