I have the following surnames that 'started' in the New England area, particularly focused around Walcha and environs and in the late 1800s into the early 1900s. More recent generations are known to be on the coast and down into the Hunter Valley and as further south to Sydney and beyond. Hoping there are some connections on this list today.

Hello Lynette My family includes BERRY/BARRY, BRIDGE, GOODWIN all of whom were settled in the Hunter Valley at Wollombi and Maitland in the early 1800s onwards. These have not been "recent " in the areas you have mentioned. Please let me know more specifically what your interest is.
