Hey Greg! Pardon my ignorance but I'm a mere Yank. Please educate me: what's a "Cobber"? I'm sure I've heard the term but can't remember it's definition lately. I'm still working my way through John William BIRCH's book, having just finished transcribing parts of Chapter 13. I have the rest to go except for #19 which I'd done first off. I'm Cc:ing this message to one of my husband's 17th BIRCH cousins (who contacted us just recently) because he cannot get a copy of John's book (they're sold out) and he may be interested in this list, I don't know. He's a nice guy and is working on his genealogy in the Seattle area. I see that you have BRUCEs as well in your maternal line. BIRCHs are my husband's maternal line. CARLISLE--a sept of BRUCE--is one of my paternal ones through King Robert's sister's husband. So you and I are probably distant cousins of one sort or another, as well as in-laws. Oh yes, I have paternal CLARK(e)s too, but have only tracked them as far back as into Colonial America, to their Quaker roots. I'll enjoy looking at your website more into the coming months. Take care, and thanks so much for putting us in touch originally with John William and his book! --Carol & Jay (Huffington > Carlisle > eventually to Clarke) Menges ----- Original Message ----- From: "Greg Baldwin" <kennethb@melbpc.org.au> To: <BIRCH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 17, 2005 2:09 AM Subject: Surname Interests > G'day Cobbers, > > Please have a look at my homepage to see my research interests: > > http://member.melbpc.org.au/~kennethb/ > > > Regards > > Greg Baldwin > Ferntree Gully, Victoria, Australia > Homepage: http://member.melbpc.org.au/~kennethb/ > Email: kennethb@melbpc.org.au > All incoming & outgoing files & emails checked by VET Anti-Virus software. > AIGS 9842 > A&NESFHS 9933 > KFHS 7736 >
