Hello, I am researching the history of the Voitrekousky family who settled in the area, around 1840's-1860's. My grandma was Elizabeth Voitre (they dropped the 'kousky' off at some time ??) Keith Voitre (famous N.Z. jockey, who won a Melbourne Cup) is a relative. Can anyone fill in anything that could further determine my ancestral history? Perhaps there are some relatives ??
