Hi Marg, Thanks once again for your most valuable information. Yes i did read it but unfortunately I had written another email to Gwen before I read my mail (yours included) I have taken your advise and sent off for the death certs from marbract mob in Sydney. Once of have this I will probably be in contact again. Do the Central Coast group have a phone contact as Id like to get some general info on what acronyms mean in geneaology and some basic ideas about how to get started?

We arent far from Sydney and I could check the English marriages index for you so you could get your parents marriage cert which is a pretty important doc I am probably going to Sydney tomorrow......... Thursday I have taken your advise and sent off for the death certs > from marbract mob in Sydney. Good The IGI is on line .....( International genalogical index) . Now you know where this WRENCH family came from you might be able to get further back ....... www.familysearch.org > > Do the Central Coast group have a phone contact as Id like to get some > general info on what acronyms mean in geneaology and some basic ideas about > how to get started? >From where you live I would have thought email is far better. Isnt there a FH group in Broome ?? a Library ? There is a booklet that you could find useful............ Tracing your family history in Australia by Nancy Gray . cost abt $8 . We have this for sale ( or did have some copies last time I looked ..) The CC FHS library has an email address , even so you would do better to stay around this list . As alot of the time we forget to check it :-) Bye Marg Morters Central Coast Family History Society GOSFORD NSW Australia
