The Cane’s labour of love for family history.


Robert and Denise Cane at the Hervey Bay Library
Denise and Robert Cane have produced a fascinating history of Robert’s family.
Denise Cane has spent many years discovering the story of her husband's relative Alf Cane. This arduous and detailed study culminated in the publication of a book called the Alf Cane story.
The Alf Cane Story 
This book traces the history of the Cane family, who were significantly involved in the early days of Biggenden.  Denise’s detective work about her husband Robert’s family has produced a fascinating story about pioneers of the local area.
