Hi John :) If it's of any help I have the Victorian Digger CDs (Federation, Edwardian and Death Indexes), the AVRI CDs and I have the Carr Villa CD (Tasmanian burials) and the Tasmanian Convicts CD which is temperamental but does work on occasions! ;D Let me know if I can do any lookups for your daughter, I'm more than happy to help! :D As for help with research, the only suggestion I can make is to join a mailing list appropriate to where or who she's searching i.e. go to Rootsweb.com and look through the Australian lists. I've also got a lot of links for Australian genealogy on my site ... www.honeyshome.com/linksaus.html ... if she wants to try any of those. I need to update that cause I've got some excellent links in my favourites so I'll try and do that before the weekend. Otherwise if I can help I will, just let me know! :D Take care, Rob.

I have been reading with interest about the exploits of the K/Nibbs in foreign lands, somewhat disappointed that my Knibbs clan scarcely moved from Northants in the UK. My daughter-in-law has now caught the genealogy bug and she has lots of lines of interest beyond the UK shores. She is seeking advice, and I'm little help, about finding her ancestors who went to Australia in 1890's; seeking ways of connecting with Irish researchers about her Irish links and pursuing her Gt Grandfather, who served in the Artillery during the South African Wars. Can you assist me in surprising her when she visits at the weekend- A key surname in all this is Clowry" John Knibbs ============================== Gain access to over two billion names including the new Immigration Collection with an Ancestry.com free trial.
