Claire grew up with stories of her Swayn relative who farmed in the Colac Area. Patrick Kervin (Snr) told stories of visiting the property as a teenager so we decided to see if we could find the location. It did not prove much of a challenge.
The Swayns bought their supplies at the store in Dean's Marsh. The place still stands and has been updated a little.
The farm had been at the end of Swayn's Lane in hilly territory far removed from the flat of northern Victoria. The farm now appears to have been divided into smaller holdings.
