An old lady who is related to (Chubby) Elsie Grace Campbell somehow came across my webpage about her little grave in a lonely little spot in the Argylla Ranges between Cloncurry and Mt Isa, the story inspired her to want to visit the site. Just one result like that makes the effort I put in the webpage worthwhile and feel good that she got the inspiration to get up and go, Below is an email she sent this morning.

Hello Doug
We made it to the gravesite and it was such a special time. Wayne Tapp from Cloncurry took us on the guided tour and made it all so interesting. We went to Mary Kathleen (town and mine site), Mt Frosty calcite mine and finally Chubby's grave. What a day. We had lunch in Charly Creek and saw the remains of the Old Glencoe homestead. Also had a trip to the Gorge, just south of Cloncurry (where my grandmother was born), and the old town sites of Kuridala and Selwyn. I am now all fired up to get into the family history.
Thanks for your help in getting me there.
Merle.
