Hello Rosemary, I have Urquhardt's in my tree. John Urquhardt born 1835 Gairloch Scotland died 1921 Williamstown Victoria, he was married to Martha McGregor or Macgregor born Gairloch 1833 died 1920 Williamstown Victoria. I am related through his son Donald Kenneth Urquhardt born 1876 New Zealand Aukland, He married Sarah Jane Olive Wilson. Is this line in with your tree.????

I've been researching my Family Tree for the past 7 or 8 years - mainly the Scottish Ancestry but was amazed to find that we weren't the first family members to come to Australia. My Great great great Grandmother was transported to Van Dieman's Land in 1848 (no one in the family knew about that!!!) and her second eldest son (my great great Grandfather's brother) arrived here as a free settler in 1850. If you have a connection to Uruqharts in Victoria/NSW you may connected to his line. I am also searching for Lauries/Lawries probably also in Victoria - descendants of Peter Lawrie of Chirnside, Berwick, Scotland (died Port Fairy 1890)

Hi,another Aussie with English roots....Sherratt is my maiden name.Having a hard time getting the line moving at this stage.Not enough family details to help me.All I have is my paternal Gparents marriage cert but details seem to conflict with known facts. Awaiting GF's birth cert and perhaps this will help.

Hi, I discovered the Genealogywise.com site only the other day, and now your site, thank you for the invitation. I am researching my family and was born in England, migrated here in 1966 (10 pound POM) with my just then hubby as a 19 year old, but flew out rather than by ship. Fortunately I have remembered a fair bit of our family though maternal grandma's name eluded me. I found it 3 weeks ago - hurrah!
I will look around the site a bit more..... thanks

Hi Wayne Thank you for yor reply. I must be going blind but please tell me where my help/look up is LOL, I don't know too much about this genealogy stuff and not much about computers.. This really is a wonderful site I have received so mucch help in doing the family tree, there is so much i wouldn't have found out otherwise. I will have to start working on Dad's mothers side as well the StClair and Barty hopefully they will be easier then the darn Pankhurst. At least I have been able to find out where in SA my GGrandmother Maria StClair nee Barty was born unlike my GGrandfather Walter Pankhurst. .I seems to me Joseph and Mary Pankhurst never registered their children only 1 of them and yet I have found marriage records for about 6 of them . Walters marriage certificate never sais where he was born. Bye for now.
