As result of some research I was doing on the Broadbent boys from Cherry Gardens, I came across 'The Tunnellers' research website at http://www.tunnellers.net/pages/indexpag.html. Some brilliant work has been done my those responsible, including a nominal roll of members of the Mining Corps (which included the Tunnelling Companies). So far Neil Campbell and Andrew Thomas of Blackwood and Marshall Broadbent of Cherry Gardens all belonged to the 3rd Tunnelling Company, so I expect more will turn up as I go.
Well done to John Reading and crew.
