I am new to this site so thought I'd try and connect with Australians - and you list Hopkinsons - mine are from Hillgrove in NSW. I wrote about my convict ancestor here.
Thanks, Satima. Will get my wits together tomorrow and email you the files. (Late Saturday night here.) Went to a friend's home to watch a DVD from 1946, The Best Years of Our Lives, and came home to my pets and the dog I'm babysitting. Yes, we live life in the fast lane around here... Hang on for the ride of your life, etc. (yawn).
I saw your question on the Medieval forum. I have good stuff on the Mortimers and d'Audleys. I even visited Stoke Audley, and Wigmore Abbey. Will share the Word files with you by email if you'll keep them private, for personal use. I can't post them online, as they're a hodgepodge of articles from many sources, and I won't violate their author rights or copyrights. I'm a writer, you're a writer, so let's respect others' rights! :-)
Leave your email address in my Facebook Inbox, and I'll send the files to you.
Thanks for pointing this out... will see how it helps. Facebook has helped me link to some people over the last 12 months so need to always look for new ways.
Hi, Satima. Well, "rooting" can also mean cheering for your team! But those who do NOT live Down Under take it as looking for your roots, the place you came from. :-)
Nope, haven't looked for medieval groups yet. But I will. Have you any to recommend?

Very cool - I would not have guessed at a Scottish connection!
I'll drop you a line later along the lines if I hit anyone who might interest you.
That's interesting. I hadn't found any further North than Sheffield.
It's proving a bit slow to add folks manually here, but I could always send a Gedcom (somehow it refuses to just upload here) for the Dawson line.
Any Dawsons from Michigan, New Brunswick or Ontario?

Thanks again
