Hello Steven, Wow...this is terrific. I thank you so very much for all the good information and these websites. Your efforts on my behalf are appreciated so much. The data you and Carol have provided me will greatly help my further research. Thank you for your kind offer to check for more information on their arrival in Australia but I think I have Alexander's parents covered. I have their family information as well as Alexander's paternal grandparents who are also my gggrandparents. Thanks again!
