Christmas card from the Anderson family collection.
Presumed sent from Trevor Debenham to Hadden Anderson – both boys appear in the Turlinjah School register 1930.
The Anderson family lived on the north side of Coila Lake – the house is still standing. The closest school was Turlinjah. Hadden was a few years older than Trevor but it was a one teacher school so all were in together. The card is part of a collection donated by the Anderso famiy to the MDHS, and could have possibly been sent by Trevor after his family left the district. Trevor was on the school list in 1930 but not in 1932.
