William LANE and Janet ANDISON had two children at Sandford in 1861 and 1862, and a third child born in Tasmania in 1863.

   "The Age" (Melbourne, Vic.) Monday, 20th August 1894.

   COUNTRY NEWS. -- FIRE AT SANDFORD. -- CASTERTON, Sunday.

   Whelan's general store at Sandford was burned down on Friday night through some curtains accidentally catching fire. The premises are owned by Mr. Lesser, of Coleraine, and insured in the London and Liverpool Globe Company for £300. The stock is insured for only £200 in the same office, so Mr. Whelan's loss will be heavy, as hardly anything was saved.
