I have lots of names I'm researching in Australia, but will start with a MARY BEHN, daughter of JOHN FREDERICK BEHN (sometimes known as Fred/Frederick) and his wife Frances Alice HOWES/HOUSE.

He had 2 daughters, we dont know if he remarried . Neither do we know when or where he died. His 2 daughters would probably be in their 80's by now. Does this story sound like your family ? It appears that the Salvation Army wrote to my Grandmother, in New Zealand, to inform her of his death. She does not seem to have told anyone the details of his death.

Unfortunately from more recent I can only go back to my grandfather George Garfield Cruickshank...his wife Amy Veronica Aspinall. When they moved to Kalgoorlie (the goldfields of Western Australia) they lost all their records (in a fire I presume)....so I can go no further back. From the Aspinal side of the family it was told that they came here with the convicts. But I can find no listing of them on any convict list....and no mention of them on the first 3 fleets....though I did find Aspinal on those lists. > > My fathers name was Peter Graham Cruickshank (dec). He was born in Kalgoorlie, West Australia. > My Grandfather was George Garfield Cruickshank (dec). He was also born in Kalgoorlie I think, though his father aparently moved there from Victoria somewhere. > > I am new to this....no one has researched this before from what I can gather in our family. Our family reduced in size to only a couple of children each generation...and most of those are deceased now except for a few I cant find. So for the most part....there is only one Cruickshank left on my side.....so the Cruickshank side of my family is a mystery...so it is going to be a long search. > > So any and all information I will be chasing up...if I dont get back to any that supply anything...please accept my thanks....and as soon as I sift thru it all....I will acknowledge what has panned out. > > > > Thanks !! > > Cindy-Leigh Cruickshank > > >
