Author Bio
| Name | Jackie van Bergen |
| Bio | I was born on the peninsula but spent most of my childhood in the Wimmera. I’ve also lived in Melbourne and Sydney but returned to spend retirement on the beautiful peninsula. My retirement goals are to improve my golf and photography, and to at last get around to writing up some of the extensive family history research I’ve done over the years. |
