My family has an interest in the wine industry and recently purchased a vineyard in a famous wine district called Mclaren Vale. The property is still called Plaisted's Vineyard. As part of the research from a previous owner, we have a copy of a lease signed in 1860 transferring the operation of the vineyard to someone called Pavy. The lease is signed by Thomas Plaistead as executor of the will of the late John Plaistead of Melbourne.<br />It is a beautiful property, on a hill overlooking the Vales. Now 50 acres, it is much smaller than the original. It has an impressive history, and for a long time was the operated by an iconic winemaking family, the Hardy family. More recently, it has supplied old vine grenache to one of the world's most recognised winemakers for one of his premium wines.<br />Not much use to your genealogy, I know, but I hope you find this post of interestMike Kenneallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08437007709320949817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7765290659584159208.post-43475685018862782892011-10-15T14:50:40.467-07:002011-10-15T14:50:40.467-07:00Ta...... :-)Ta...... :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12712678553941416352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7765290659584159208.post-42692483857525935662011-10-15T14:48:58.554-07:002011-10-15T14:48:58.554-07:00love itlove itAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
