Hello, My great-grandmother and her four younger siblings were born in Liverpool, England, between 1860 and 1870. They were children of Evan and Elizabeth (?) CORKILL. Evan had been born on the Isle of Man in 1827, and he was reported to have been a Mariner. Mrs. Corkill might have died around 1872, as in 1873, the children went to live in the Liverpool Sheltering Homes. In 1874, they were shipped to Canada (Halifax, NS), ages 14 to 3. They all went to live in different homes in Nova Scotia. .. I have been able to find out who the three older sisters married .. while living in NS, and they all married in Truro, NS, between 1879 and 1882. Their younger brother, John CORKILL (5), married later in life, and owned a farm in Nova Scotial. The youngest brother was Age 3, and he went to live with a FERGUSON family. He was still living with them in the 1881 Census. He was then listed as Robert CORKHILL .. Age 10. I have not been able to find him mentioned in Nova Scotia after that. This morning I did another Google search for Robert, and found his name mentioned on this web page: http://www.standard.net.au/~jwilliams/act1913.htm In the first? paragraph it mentions a Robert CORKHILL living in Australia in 1921. I am curious whether Robert "followed in his father's footsteps" and became a Mariner (1890's?), and whether he sailed to Australia and remained there. About 2 years ago I heard from a CORKILL man in Australia ??, and he thought that he was the only man .. who had his surname. So far in my research, I have found this surname mentioned with many spelllings: CORKILL, CORKHILL, COCKILL, CORNHILL, COSKILL, as examples. And, it seems to be a surname centered around the Isle of Man. I'm curious how many times this surname shows up in Australia and New Zealand, and whether anyone has information on this Robert CORKHILL. (The one I am looking for would have been born in ~1871 in Liverpool, England, and was sent to Halifax, NS, in 1874.) Betty (near Lowell, MA, USA) P.S. If anyone would like more information on the "British Home Children" (aka "Home Children, Canada"), they can do a Google search for those terms (using quotes), or they can go to the following web site: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~britishhomechildren/ There is a British Home Children List at www.rootsweb.com (Go to Mailing List INDEX and look under Canada.)

Don't think Ron or Ken are on the net they did live in Brisbane but I have only known them since I moved to the Gold Coast about 40 yrs ago and I'm pretty sure that Ron was here all that time Ken did live in Morningside but remarried and retired down here. They are both life members of Palm Beach Surf Club. Col

Hi Colin, Thanks for writing. I have heard that I have relatives in the Gold Coast area, but don't know where the connection is as yet. Do they have an email address? By coincidence I had another person write asking if I knew Ron (Ronny) Bagnall, he would be about 57/58 years old though and lived at the Grange, Brisbane. Would there be a connection to the Ron that you know, or someone he knows of. This person said he was mates with Ron when they were teenagers and he would like to re-establish contact.

What began as an interesting side issue involving a small database is turning into something more significant in terms not only of Chinese life in Australia, or the First World War but in relation to immigration history generally and the nature of multiculturalism and Australian social history. The WWI database now stands at 132 more or less confirmed. As members may have notice on other lists, I am constantly seeking relatives who may be able to add to the data already available. The WW2 list is very lengthy, with what now appears to be more than 1000 people listed. Names present a problem, especially in regard to WW2. Names such as Dow and Lee present unique problems as they are common to both Chinese and Europeans. The Currie name is associated with Central Victoria but not all Curries will share a Chinese forebear. It is now apparent that genealogy is a vital historical tool, especially at the undergraduate level. By looking into their family history, all students can find themselves linked to almost any event in Australian history at a highly personal level. I would encourage genealogical groups to strengthen their ties to their local universities. to illustrate just how important this is, take the following extract from a conference paper given in NZ in 1999. >When Granny Mah Look was approaching her ninety fifth birthday she >fell and broke her thigh bone. This injury kept her confined to bed >for about eight months in Vera Honey's care until she died on >February 1,1955. This amazing woman, a pioneer of the King Valley, >left one hundred and sixty four descendants. Twenty of her >grandchildren joined the Armed Services during World War Two, >nineteen grandsons in the Army and Air Force and one grandaughter an >Army nurse. Many of the family contributed voluntary work through >Red Cross and were active in community affairs. http://www.stevenyoung.co.nz/chinesevoice/ChinConf/S5.html I'd love to track down all those Mah Look descendants for the WWI and WW2 databases.
