Hi
Looking for help with my ancestor who entertained there in 1898 with "Hudsons Suprise Party"
He was a comedian /Vocalist. Used the Stage Name Olly Gilbert, born as Oliver John Drought MEE IN Adelaide 1873, so either name.
I believe he returned there maybe 1900 .
He was also a Chemist, and named his son born 1902 Harrowsmith, which i believe is a place there.
He may have worked as a Chemist in a Health Farm??? and also died there.
Any help with any information on this Pleeeease
