Hi Sue I noticed in your list Dowie My grandparents were Charles Trail Dowie and Doris (Jessie) Nee Cumming and wondered if any relation. Also Allwood and Cumming tie-in as per my reply to Bronwen on the list. I know of Ron & Doug Parsons from Naringal, don't know if both still alive, but if they are perhaps my uncle Ron Smith from Naringal may be able to find out some info. These gentlemen are all in their eighties if alive. Hope to hear from you regards Charlie At 05:18 PM 28/12/2007, you wrote: >Hi Listers, >Just joined your list and wondered if anyone has a connection to my >PARSONS family.
