Shepherd

[Aussie Karrob]

I am interested in the Shepherd families from Frampton Cotterel, Westerleigh, Winterbourne, Iron Acton and Downend.
William married Mary Alsop
son William married Sarah Andrews
son Christopher married Martha Gibbs
son Henry married Emma Colborn
son Francis Henry Shepherd (born 1865, Frampton Cotterell) came to Australia in 1890.

Does anyone have any information for these families.  Here in Australia, information is that much harder to research in the UK.
I'm already indebted to many.

Cheers
Robert

Many thanks for your fast response.  It would appear that all these are my relations.  Many names are common in our history both written and oral.
Again many thanks
