Heap blessings on Google Maps, KD.

1st I put in Maryborough.

Then for 2nd pic I put in Albion Street and it pointed to Albion Road.

But I did the screen captures after I had done step 2, so the arrow points to Albion Road in both pics.

David, it was definitely in Maryborough, Queensland. The exact site I am not sure of.

PD has some information and may be able to shed more light on the old address.

Like the Furphy camp oven history thread about when the first was made, nobody has actually confirmed where the Albion camp ovens were made in Maryborough (Qld).

Logfire did some research on Albion/UMI ovens and put it on this forum, possibly 18 months ago.

I have posted before on the Albion Foundry at Maryborough in Queensland David. I emailed the Maryborough Historical Soc. several years ago and they forwarded my request to the Qld. Goverment Library in Brisbane who sent me a large amount of information including copies of photos. Can't find it right now but I do remember the foundry closed its doors for the last time in 1907. In the pic which showed mainly cast iron stoves and fire places there are half a dozen lids which look to be at least 18" and stacks of smaller pots.

When I die I hope my missus doesn't sell my camp ovens for what I told her I paid for them. pd
