Hi, I have just subscribed to this list, and would be grateful to receive any information about William MORRIS (born about 1820?)who married Ann SMITH on 30th June 1845 in Elvaston, Derbyshire. One of their children was another William MORRIS, born about 1848 in Boulton in Derbyshire. William & Ann and their family came to Queensland, Australia, where William (jnr) married Catherine Keanally, in Ipswich on 30th August, 1870. I am trying to find out if the parents of William (snr) - born about 1820 -were John MORRIS, born ca 1783 in Boulton, and Penelope MALTBY. Are there any descendants of these families out there? Does anyone have access to any information about the Morris family in Derbyshire? Any information would be most appreciated. Many thanks, Ally Griffith ally@bribieisland.net
