Ada Mahlook and Emily Lee Ack collection
Repository
F. Anderson (private hands)
Description

This collection of photographs was originally two collections. One set of photographs belonged to Ada Mahlook and the other to Emily Lee Ack. Ada and Emily were sisters. Fay Anderson holds some of the original collection and obtained other copies from John Lee Ack. Photographs from the original collection that relate to other surviving members of the family have been sent to them for safekeeping. Original school photographs in the collection were sent to Ballarat College/Clarendon Archives after copies were given to the family. F.S. Goon is Fay Anderson's grandfather. Verna Frances Warner (nee Goon) is Fay Anderson's mother. Not all photographs in the collection are held in this database.
