Does anyone have any books by Elizabeth Jessie Beer of Invercargill who died in 2016?
She also compiled a book called The Land of the Lindsays - 1856 - 1900.
Thanks NAT

As you know Elizabeth died. Her husband is still alive and lives in a resthome in Invercargill - not sure if it is a good idea to put his name and place on here. Are you wanting to buy a book? Elizabeth was very involved with Genealogy in Invercargill also and if you contact the local genealogy society they could help. They have a web site.

Hi Kiwiwendy,
Yes it was very sad when Elizabeth passed! Such a loss of Historical knowledge. It would be great to know where we could access her books to buy though. Any ideas? I have just placed a request at a library for an interloan of Land of Lindsays and the national library for the Beer family saga.
So will see if that works!
