      ===================
      Chain of Ponds, S.A. [along the River Torrens].
      When Walter married Mary he was living in Willowie aged 19 years a Labourer. His father is entered as James EAMER. The Melrose Wesleyan Church where Walter & Mary were married is situated at the foot of Mount Remarkable. Willowie is a small town east of Melrose - they are situated in Flinders Ranges, South Australia. The Witnesses to their Marriage were J. CROFT, Mailman and H. FULLER, Labourer, both were living in Melrose. [Copy of Cert. On File sent to me by Wendy CHAPMAN [nee. PRATT]].
      Walter & Mary and their family experienced great hardship living in the areas around Quorn, South Australia and they decided to move to Western Australia with their family in the late 1890's during the gold-rush era, they settled in Nannine and were amongst the first early settlers within the Murchison Goldfields. Walter lived in South Australia 37 years.
      Walter's Death Certificate states Father:- John EAMER / Mother:- Ethel BALCOMB. The Cert also states his place of Birth as Mt. Gambier, S.A. [Info from John G. EAMER/ Copy of Cert. received from him 29.10.2006]. [1]
