The Adelaide newspaper 'The Advertiser' has a comprehensive account of the work on 10 January 1936 in an article headed 'Pioneer Memories Told In Rhyme'. 'Memories of pioneer personalities told in rhyme and rhythm have been revived by Miss Eva Roach under the nom de plume of "Cousin Silvia" in an attractively illustrated booklet "Homing." In nine short poems Miss Roach has told of some of the men and women who came from England nearly a century ago; of Grandpa Lovegrove who "was alive in eighteen hundred and thirty-five" and the story of the map in Grannie's house introduced by a reproduction of a quaint cottage in Berkshire where Ann Nightingale and all her ancestors and their descendants have lived since 1560 and Ann worked the map as "a child of 10 when George III ruled Englishmen." Pleasant Cottage at Penwortham revives memories of "Great Grandpa Lee and Horrocks the Explorer" while a picture of the last house at Land's End Cornwall illustrates the poem on the Cornishmen's lucky find "at Burra in 1845." Other short poems introduce the Duke of Edinburgh's visit in 1867 and Nilpena the home of Grandpa Lee'. The Hassell Press [for the Author paperback
