Weismantels (this is an area the we've previously covered fairly extensively and is well documented in pictures). Note the description on the card that states "numerous facilities not normally enjoyed in remote localities".

Barry O'Meara:
"My grandmother Linda Hickey lived in this house for many years, raising several children including my mum who attended the Johnsons Creek School. When she moved to Woy Woy, Ray Hartmann (brother in law) purchased the house. His children attended the Wards River school."


Barry O'Meara:


"It is sad that so much history is lost with the demise of parents and grandparents. Weismantels used to has a tennis court adjacent to the signal box, my grandmother had a large fruit orchard and preserved the fruit. She took in lodgers, railway workers from surrounding stations and that's how my dad John O'Meara met and married my mum. I have fond memories of the place."


Janice Hartmann:
"I grew up in this house. Ray Hartmann was my Dad. Thank you for the memories 😊"
