I then realised I had a week to spare so I decided on a side trip to Auckland, NZ to visit some of the places where William COLENSO travelled during his life time there from 1834 until his death in 1899.  I have yet to work out how I will travel to some of the places like Paihia, Rotorua and Waikato but I am sure I will sort it out. I'm also staying in Adelaide with a 3xg granddaughter of Samuel May COLENSO from Penzance - Samuel is a 5xg grandfather of my granddaughter. Some of the names in my family tree and the places where they lived and where I hope to visit: COLENSOs to Geelong, Melbourne TRAHAIRs to White Hills and Brunswick, Melbourne TRAHAIR and COLENSOs to Ballarat BODINNARs and RICHARDS to Bendigo and Eaglehawk DREW family to Queensland - but I'm not sure where! TALBOT family (from Somerset) to Colac I am going from one side of Australia to the other.  There are also numerous other places to visit where family lived, don't know how many I will manage to visit but I'll be away for 10 weeks. Places I'm staying - Melbourne, Adelaide, Mandurah, Peregian Beach and Brisbane.  From those places I hope to visit other places.  I have 11 flights altogether and this is a once in a lifetime research trip which is giving me the opportunity to visit family and friends.  If you happen to see me passing your home don't forget to wave:-))  I just might be wearing my Cornish tartan!
