Hi Nc,

I am not related to Robert Cook Burrow.  But I can see that in the late 19th Century that Toryburn was owned by the Burrow Bros, and not just by one person.   I can also see that the Burrow Bros owned Bunna Bunna out near Millie, and also other property at Clifton, Tenterfield.

From your records, perhaps you might be able to give the names of those Burrow Brothers?  Of course, RChat is about helping with searching for ancestors, and is not about searching for living people, but perhaps your post will catch the eye of living descendants if you give the names of the brothers BURROW.

Sands 1900 NSW Country is a source for Burrow Bros showing them with Toryburn Station as well as Bunna Bunna and Clifton. 

Sands  1903 NSW Pastoral Directory

TENTERFIELD (Inspector M J St Clair, Glen Innes)

Post Town : Tenterfield

NARRABRI (A H Farrand, Inspector)

Post Town :  Millie
Horses : 28
Cattle : 36
Sheep : 27168

PILLIGA (A H Farrand, Inspector, Narrabri)

Post Town :  Narrabri

Cattle : 30
Sheep : 20000

NSW SRO index http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/state-archives/indexes-online/registers-of-firms/index-to-registers-of-firms

BURROW BROTHERS   as Graziers at Various locations in New South Wales registered 5 Mar 1903   with Thomas John BURROW and William Jones Cook BURROW.

Likely these would be connected to your Robert Cook BURROW .... 

Cheers,  JM

I am related to Robert Cook Burrow. I am a direct descendent of his brother Thomas John Burrow. I am interested in any information you have on Thomas Burrow and Elizabeth Cook who I would think are Robert and Thomas's grand parents.

Regards

Robyn
