I don't know but I do not think so. All stem from one Walter PAULL born St Agnes 1832 or so who came to Victorian goldfields in 1850s. He was a widower who re-married in the NE and had a second family. Where do your Paulls come from? I notice you have family links in the Holbrook area. That is where my German forbears settled - but in Pleasant Hills. Maria Brandl
