Hey, im actually a direct descendant of
John Conrick (and a bit of Ware in there too), the people who founded the
nappa merrie station (also Innaminka and Minja). i was wondering if anyone has any info on the current owners etc or anyone i could contact if i was looking to visit
Nappa Merrie and look around the area etc for old-old-old times sake, to see what my great-great-grandfather did with his life. Also, i was wondering if there are still any other known Conricks in the area? any help?

Last I heard it was owned by the Stanbroke Pastoral Co. (a big multi-station pastoral show) - probably HQ in Queensland. Just sold to a new owner I think (was AMP awhile back) - look 'em up - they have a website too.

Lucy worked there for a time but now lives in
Quilpie. Her partner used to be the manager so she may be able to help.
Just a thought (and she is a lovely girl to talk to which is a bonus)
