Thank you Margm, Indeed Qld is large and hot - I love it. Just drove from Nerang to Townsville and have been up to Irvinebank where my GG grandfather is buried. I visit three or four times a year to locate THE LIVE ONES as part of my project to construct our Pope family history on my web site. When not in other parts of the world looking for THE LIVE ONES I am in Nelson or other parts of New Zealand where I have over 1000 LIVE ONES from my forty first cousins. Not all Popes of course. My web site contains my family tree going back to around my 21st great grandfather Gilbert de Venables (1080). The Pope's go back to Anthony Pope died 29th August 1639 Denbury, Devon, England. Richard Pope Married Mary Murray in Roma in 1864 and sort of spread out from there. With three convict ancestors - almost Australian!!!!. Owen Pope. ----- Original Message ----- >> I am researching my Pope family in Queensland, >> Descendants of John Taylor Pope and Amila Green I have. >> His brother Richard Pope married Mary Murray and I have >> located family descended from Alexander Murray Pope >> MISSING >> is contact with descendants of Horace Arthur Pope, Maira >> Pope, Mary Pope, Samuel Richard Pope, Angelina Taylor >Pope > >Hi Owen > >When posting on a foreign mailing list is can be a good >move to give >a clue as you your location in the World and a few dates >and ancestor locations, why missing etc > >Queensland is quite a large part of Australia >...................... > >Bye > > > MargM >QLD List Admin > > > > > > >
