I have recently found an old family <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/bible-family-history.ashx> Bible. Inside, it had an ancient small envelope (addressed to Miss H <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/tayler-family-history.ashx> TAYLER, Colemans Road, Nr <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/ryde-family-history.ashx> Ryde, Isle of <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/wight-family-history.ashx> Wight) containing a slip of paper with the name and address of "Barnabus <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES, <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/carpenter-family-history.ashx> Carpenter, <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/brook-family-history.ashx> Brook <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/cottage-family-history.ashx> Cottage, Stanley Street, East <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/collingwood-family-history.ashx> Collingwood, <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/melbourn-family-history.ashx> Melbourn, South Australia". I have transcribed the original spellings and errors. The writing is very old-fashioned, with some "s" appearing as "f". Barnabas and <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/barnaby-family-history.ashx> Barnaby were quite frequent names in the <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES family of the Isle of <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/wight-family-history.ashx> Wight, and several of them were carpenters, but I suspect this piece of paper refers to the brother of my x2 great-grandmother Elizabeth <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/wheeler-family-history.ashx> WHEELER nee <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES (the <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/bible-family-history.ashx> Bible comes from that line of my family). That Barnabas, bc 1817 was son of Benjamin & Mary <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES, and we "loose" him after the 1851 census of <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/england-family-history.ashx> England. I see from Ancestry.com that a Barnabas <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES died in 1879 in Victoria, Australia, and that another Barnabas <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES was on the electoral roll in <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/collingwood-family-history.ashx> Collingwood, <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/melbourne-family-history.ashx> Melbourne in the first half of C20, which sounds exceptionally promising! I am aware that there is a (related) family of <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES, including a Barnabas, who emigrated to Tasmania, but does anyone have any further information on the line of the Isle of <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/wight-family-history.ashx> Wight <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/groves-family-history.ashx> GROVES family who lived in <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/collingwood-family-history.ashx> Collingwood, <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/melbourne-family-history.ashx> Melbourne, in the second half of C19 and early C19, please? And can anyone tell me where Colemans Road near Ryde was - as opposed to the one between Newport and Yarmouth? I cannot find it on Google maps nor on the OS, so assume it must have been renamed or built over or . Susan <http://www.ancestry.com/facts/johnstone-family-history.ashx> Johnstone
