Hi Sue, Yes I am aware of the Surgenors/Surgeoners in Australia and NZ. I know of one Surgenor family there that are definitely my family but they are not connected to the others (at least not yet). This Surgenor family is part of my direct lineage. I am not able to make the connection to other Surgenors in this part of the world yet but I agree they are probably cousins as they came from Ballymena. Especially if they are Presbyterians. The only notes I have for our James is that he went to Australia and back to Portglenone and then back to Ballymoney. I will be visiting a cousin in Ballymena next month and will ask her if she knows more. I have a bunch of questions to ask her and I hope to tie a bunch of the loose ends up soon. My cousin is very knowledgeable about our family roots. At least everything she has told us so far has turned out to be factual. Watch this space.

Berny, Be a love and do us a favour when you visit Ballymena. Ask your cousin if Kirkinriola cemetery still exists. That is where my SURGEONERS are supposed to be buried, but l cannot find where it is. It's in the area of Ballymena, Rathkenny and Broughshane.
