Poverty, Plague, Pestilence

The Larsen Family c 1901 posted by Ian Smyth on Ancestry Kenny Kith and Kin site
This respectable-looking family from Kensington were the centre of attention in a Bubonic Plague outbreak in 1900.  Marilyn Kenny turns her quizzical eye on the case, examining the actions of the Council, the Department of Health, and the quarantine station at Portsea. Also a guinea pig is mentioned.  For the full story, visit Poverty, Plague, Pestilence.
