Thanks for the prod, I have been meaning to send in my list. My interests in Melbourne are: The family of Guy COLE and his two wives, Elizabeth and Martha. Their children were Thomas, Robert, George, Charlotte, Martha and William. I am also interested in their cousin John COLE who arrived per Westminster 1839. Associated family names include BECKWITH, LYONS, WYETT, WELLS, HOLLICK, WASHINGTON, MORTON, HALL, MAPLESTONE, MATHERS, BAILEY, WARRY, LYNE, BLAYNE, OLIVER, MAY. Especially interested in William BAILEY, arrived 1861, councillor at Malvern council 1879-1887. Took over Cole's Nursery at Malvern, later moved to NarreWarren. Also the family of Robert Burr PARSONS and Naomi HALL, associated names DARK, WHEELER, SAYER. I would also love to hear from anyone who knows anything about the family properties - Richmond Nursery at Richmond, Twyford and Shorland at Upper Hawthorn, Gardiners Cottage at Gardiners Creek( Malvern), Allen's Gate at Malvern, Harrow Hill at Cheltenham, St Heliers at Abbotsford, Ferndale at Tyabb, Larnoo and Minto at Merricks and Glen Harrow at Belgrave.

Hi Leanne Thanks for your response. He could well have done so. There is folk lore of him having been sent to Australia as a remittence man, also of him being sent to join a brother who was farming, and another of him having met Ned Kelly. If he was born in 1866 as he claimed he would have been only 14 when Ned kelly was hanged. But, like all folklore, there may be glimmers of truth mixed up somewhere. I did find a Charles William Dunn who was born in Melbourne in 1865 or thereabouts, but he died in Melbourne in 1938.

I am looking for my grandfather Charles William Dunn. He said he was born in Inverness Scotland, but I can find no record of this. He said he was 30 in 1896 but this is a suspiciously round number. He said his father was William Dunn and his mother was called Margaret McCulvin, but I can find no record of this surname. He also said he had a brother called Edward. The only verified fact is that he married my grandmother in New Zealand in December 1896. He was using the name Olliver when my father was born and called one son Edward Olliver. Ross Dunn

TREVENA-KNEEBONE-TRENGROVE They all came to Victoria from Gwennap in Cornwall before branching off to other parts of Australia. I would love to make contact with anyone researching any of these branches. I dearly would love to make contact with anyone at all linked to the name Trevena I have some very interesting old photos linked to all these family names and am willing to share. Good luck all Hope your brick walls gets cracks in them Cara

Greetings We are looking for leads to the whereabouts on Dianne MACFARLANE b 1945 in NSW to Bessie and Frederick Lawrence MACFARLANE. We have some reason to think that this woman may have been married to Alan JACKSON who died in October 1989. As I am a descendant of the Macfarlanes, and have a great deal of family history, this person may be interested in contacting me. Any contacts would be confidential. Regards Graham Brittain
