Here's an opportunity to browse through some random photos of those we've talked about in our story up to this point. There are situations where the dates of the photos are approximations as the exact timeline couldnt be verified.
WARNING
There are a few photos from this point forward that take a slight riske' view, they are essential I feel in providing a backdrop for the continuation of our historical archive as we next explore the life of Anna Reisa Wellington.
We like people to be informed, thus if riske' is unnacceptable, please accept our link to DisneyLand, otherwise we move forward with our story.



Here's an early photo of Irma Wellington (1848-1914) in 1866 just before she married Lannan Wellington


Here's Irma seated at the newly finished Wellington Estate in 1878


Here's Lannan(1838-1907) photoed sometime perhaps around 1861, Lannan is in the second row to the left.


Lannan Wellington in his later years the photo believed to be taken in 1902


Here's a photo of a timber crew clearing timber in 1896, to the very far left is Lannan Wellington, and second from the right is a tall young guy named Garren Wellington



Garren and Norrine Wellington

Here's the astute CEO of the timber company Garren Wellington photoed around 1915



This is Norrine when she was in college pictured here around 1906 with her close friend Clara.
Norrine is of particular interest and becomes part of the riske' photos. Norrine was said to have had a "VERY" close friendship with Clara over the years, to what extent is pure speculation however Norrine albeit a dedicated wife, mother and community active woman, was also known to be very warm and passionate.
Norrine was very dainty, thin throughout her years and an attractive lady and seemed to have a bit of a wild side to her, some of the photos Norrine took seems to support that and its an important background point in its possible influence on Anna Wellington in future years.


Here's Clara and Vinson Tabockney photo in 1914


This is Norrine posing at the first ever built in swimming pool at the Wellington Estate in 1924


This is the riske' photo of Norrine at the estate believed to be taken around 1930.


A similar style photo this time of Rachel Murray also believed to be taken around 1930.
Norrine Wellington was conneseur of art, painting and photography were passionate hobbies of hers, she shared this hobby with Rachel Murray and it seems the two ladies, along with Clara all seemed to experiment in some rather creative ways.


Clara Tabockney was also part of this creative indulgence in the arts during the time the Tabockney and Murray family stayed at the estate over a period of time dating from roughly 1930 til around 1934.


Here's Norrine at the 1939 wedding of her son Liam, to Anna Reisa Murray, who just so happened to be the daughter of Rachel Murray


One more of Norrine Wellington in 1943 now in her 50's and long known for have nice slender legs, and a willingness to show them off from time to time.


The Wellington Estate in all its history, also has a history of attractive, unique and vivacious women who were a part of that history.
