Hi Gay, I have lots of history for his family in England and Scotland. Family moved from Wigtown in Scotland some where between 1891 and 1901. Walter was living in Huddersfield, Yorkshire when he left for Australia. My father Robert Martin tried for a few years to trace him but without success, Walter is the mystery of the family. Best regards Diane. -----Original Message----- From: australia-new-zealand-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:australia-new-zealand-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Gay O'Neill Sent: 11 May 2007 01:35 To: australia-new-zealand@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AUSTRALIA-NEW-ZEALAND] WALTER MARTIN Diane are you trying to find more in Australia, New Zealand or back to his family in England?

Hi all, The 9th of November 2007 marks the bi-centenary of the beginning of the exodus of the first European settlement of Norfolk Island. Between November 1807 and September 1808 over 550 souls, including many who had sailed to the Australian colonies on the early fleets - were relocated, from Norfolk Island to Tasmania to once again establish a new life in a strange land. Special events have been organized on Norfolk Island to mark the Bi- Centenary including a Re-Enactment of the departure from the shores of Norfolk Island for transfer on the Lady Nelson to Tasmania in 1807.The re-enactment and other events in Norfolk Islands Kingston and Arthur's Vale Historic Area will complement bi-centenary celebrations planned in Tasmania The departure of the Lady Nelson with its first contingent of settlers bound for the Derwent Tasmania, would have had a major impact on the community, not only the ones who were leaving on this trip, but also the ones left behind knowing it would soon be their turn. Join the Kingston and Arthur's Vale Historic Area team for a wonderful week of history, and celebrations tracing the steps of your forebears. If you would like more information on the events being hosted here on Norfolk Island let me know cheers Liz Norfolk Island
Hi all, I'm still here too, Researching anyone with any connections whatsoever with Norfolk Island, cheers Liz Norfolk Island

Hi List, I’m still watching and waiting. My request for any information is so vague I haven’t much hope but I keep on trying. My uncle left England for Australia in the 1920s a few letters were exchanged at the time (I have no idea of any address) then contact was lost. Here goes again. Walter MARTIN b.1896 Brackenthwaite Cumberland, England to parents Robert MARTIN and Rachel (m.s MacDonald) MARTIN. Grateful for any help, Diane. No virus found in this outgoing message.

So what have you checked so far? What kind of time frame were these children born? Do you know the first name of their mother? Have you checked the online NSW BDM's? http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/search.htm NSW has outsourced the supply a transcriptions to agents - I use this one as they email the transcriptions - which have all the details from the government certs and in some cases has additional info from parish registers. Oh and they are nearly half the price of the certified copies! www.transcriptions.com.au Have you check the National Archives? http://www.naa.gov.au/the_collection/recordsearch.html the Aust War Memorial in case they served? www.awm.gov.au Have you checked the NSW State Archives www.records.nsw.gov.au And lastly have you looked in the UK census or googled "Banks Percival Breckels" BFN OOROO Michelle ============== http://au.geocities.com/patientgenie/
