The O’Connell family
I first met the O’Connells at our Australia Day and Waitangi Day function in February. We sat at the same table enjoying the great food and I was intrigued to learn how they came to be in Winnipeg. Hopefully you will as well.

In January 2011, brothers Greg and Barrie Bryan became the first people to complete a full re-enactment of Henry Lawson’s 1893 trek from Bourke, NSW to Hungerford on the QLD border and back. In total, they walked more than 450km in 15 days. And last year, they set a new challenge – to retrace the walk Henry Lawson completed with his great mate, Jim Gordon, to the historic Toorale Woolshed.
