Hi Viola, On Sunday evening we were watching the service from Gallipoli for Anzac Day and I noticed a Wiggins on the memorial behind our Prime Minister as he was speaking. I think it was an “A” but am not absolutely sure about the initial. It would have been an Australian soldier and I presume the memorial recorded the deaths. I just thought you may be interested. Hope you are keeping well, Kind regards, Margaret

Thank you for thinking about me. Some of my late Hubby's family are in Australia but only since the end of 2nd WW [I think] Although there could have been some there before then as previous generations were large families and the 'Male' gene seemed preveland in about every other generation. Ken's brother Denis had no family, but his other brother Bernard and sister Ethel and of course Ken, only produced Girls There was only two boys Charles, who went to OZ and Jack Ken's Dad they had three sisters. But Joseph Ken's Gfather had 8 siblings and 6 were boys. So one of them may be the stem of that OZ line. I've not gone into that side branch just yet. But there was an Albert Wiggins in Ken's GGfather's side so I'll look into that as it might be him. Then there is a Thomas Wiggins and his family who arrived with the British forces in the south of Ireland c1690 and spread north to the Rosslea/Roslea area. Those are married into the family of my Nephew's wife. Water finds it's own level I keep telling her. Tee Hee as Ray would say. She just lives over the road from me and is like a daughter to me. We've heard from Eilish in the Newcastle area of Hunter Valley and she is OK but was without power for 3 or 4 days. Bless her. Hope you are all OK as I am here. Still busy trying to help people sort their Irish ancestors and that is an enjoyable passtime. I'd be lost without my Computer. Thank you again Hugs and love Vi --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com
