Apologies for cross posting! Hi All, Thought I'd repost my interests and also details of our upcoming reunion. My name is Kylie Anderson-Hoschke and I am researching the descendants of Donald Anderson and Margaret Dunbar, I've included a few details below. Donald and Margaret Anderson and their children Ann (14), Samuel (12), John (8), Catherine (6) and Margaret (3) arrived in Sydney aboard the ship 'Asia' on the 10th May 1839. Donald was the son of a labourer named Alexander Anderson and his mother was Catherine McKay, daughter of Donald McKay. Donald and Margaret had been married at Croy and Dalcross, Inverness, Scotland on the 13th January 1826. The Anderson family spent a year in Sydney and their last child a daughter, Mary McIntyre was born there. They then moved to the South Coast area, and later in the late 1800's and early 1900's many of their descendants travelled to the north coast of NSW. Ann married Michael Carberry. After being widowed, Ann later married Allen McLEAN in 1857 at Kiama, NSW. Samuel married Elizabeth Timbs. John married Barbara Sutter. Catherine married Henry Timbs. Margaret passed away at a young age. Mary McIntyre married Levi Raison. If any of this sounds familiar to you, we are having a reunion at Coffs Harbour on the 29th and 30th September 2001.
