I didn't notice that Hoser had an accent? Australia was a British prison colony. The Welcome Stranger nugget was discovered in Australia by two British convicts.

I was thinking maybe since 1869 his family might have immigrated and lost the accent

Yes family has been at it awhile,on my Fathers English side. Moms side not untill the Korean War left my Uncle John in shock. Yes the continent was at first populated by prisoners of which he was NOT one but a free man who willfully migrated. That great articulate article was sent to me by a gentlemen from OZ who visited this forum quite awhile ago,great informative fella so just sharing his largess-John

Keep pumping out them articles John, it is a breath of fresh air to read something in print that don't have to do with lawyers, courts and the green facist and corrupt government.

If I had the money to have a second home, it would be in Australia.
