Just an interesting bit of imfo, my father registered me as the 21st Dec 1939, but i always celebrated my Birthday the 23rd until I was older now have to use the 21st as a legal date.( note my GGFs Marriage date) Also Bob notice your name is Mays, my single name was Mayes. Coincidences or What. Francene

Thank you Bob, my imformation comes off a copy I bought from NSW BDMs stating Henry 2 was born Manangle NSW marriage date 21st December 1883. Has not got a lot of imfo as is only an excerpt.States his Father Henri/y 1, was a medical doctor & he was French but whether he was born in France I do not Know..Could you tell me where you searched to find Henry George Margaret. I have been to 5 historical soc from Brisbane to Townsville, can only get Henry 2 from Pioneers Index Queensland, but nothing on his father or mother.There is a Henry Grattan Douglass who Douglas Park was named after So summise Margaret Douglas is from his clan. But cannot find anything about that. Thank you once again

Hi Francene
Menangle Douglas Park NSW 1848
This as an address does not seem to fit
Menangle was a village servicing Camden Park conected to railway in 1863
I think Douglas Park is a more modern development for that area, maybe even c 1900's
How sure are of the information that you are searching from? Were his parents born in Australia?
V18482121 65/1848 LE BRETON HENRY GEORGE MARGARET
found this by searching for Henry 1848

I didn't intend to lurk :) I'm battling a dying computer which is off more than it's on just now - I'm pleased to be here and have already followed some interesting links that were new to me.
My main family names are:
Sutherland - Caithness to Chippendale NSW (mainly John Sutherland MLA)
connected to the Sutherland name is Oag who also came to Balmain NSW
Spalding - Lanark SCT to Balmain NSW
Mackay - SCT to Sydney and Goulburn areas
Chapman - Co.Cork IRE to Sydney
Very soon I hope to find time to update my Rootsweb information and I'm also starting a couple of blogs for my family research, I used to write web pages but find blogs so much easier to update
Also:
Geniaus - I'm wondering how you would like us to post our information -
is it better to create a discussion topic for listing family information, it's really hard to find anyone in the comments but if we all start discussions it will soon become swamped too.
Thanks

Are you a lurker? If you haven't introduced yourself to the group - please post a short message - it may result in some worthwhile connections for you.

As an ex soldier on days such as these I tend to get a very large lump in my throat and have a tendency not attend these services.
But it does not stop me from standing tall at that hour to respect those that fort for our countries and the friends that I lost.
