Myname is Peter J Broughan and my ancesters came to Yandoit during gold rush era.
Some of names are Righetti,Bonetti,Pedrotti and La Franchi there some where.These are all connected with Scandolera
I have started Facebook page for decendents to join and exchange photos and other news,
I am also on FTDNA and had Dna done.If people interested in finding all our connections,Please contact us,
The Scandoleras eventually lived in Boort,Charlton area,and Chris married Mary Ann O;neill which also connected with Powells,Postich,Vanderfeen etc.
What is of interest is the Scandolera team winning the Australian Tug of War Championship during 1920s and Cup is located in the Charlton museum
Maybe the webmaster can create another site here for our various DNA kit numbers and Gedmatch numbers
