Hi Naida - you are new, so we will be gentle. :) Can you please give us some clues as to where each of these families are in the AUS-NSW-CENTRAL area??? You will generally find there are good and kind people on here, but unless you give something like a location, you may not be displaying yourself to a maximum advantage. The more information you give, such as dates and maybe even occupations and first names, the more likely you are to have results.

Hi Linda Thanks for the email, I'm a member of several lists for a few years now, and have decided to give this one a go, I haven't given any further details as these familes moved around the central districts quite regulary (and even changed names - hence McMunn / McIlmun) and were quite widespread, I'd like to see what attachments to the names pop up and then narrow them down with specifics - otherwise my initial email may have taken forever to read (LOL). I'll bombarb you all later with further details :) Thanks again for the email, and I look forward to being a part of this list. Cheers Naida.
