    Hello Dawn,   A big welcome to Rootschat and thank you for your input on Melville and family.   I heard from Alex about 3 weeks ago with the latest update on this search.   No doubt he will get an alert from Rootschat as I did to view your post.
     Apart from the Piggins you will get so much help in this forum for any other ancestors you want to look at.   
     When you have made two more posts in Rootschat then you will be able to send personal messages to any other member and that can also be such a great help when we all work together.
      Good Luck and successful searching,   Malcolm

Alex here.  I'm now in contact with Dawn and family in England , and have now found all three of her Australian cousins.  I've taken over as Exec. and Melville's Estate should shortly be settled.
Many thanks to Cando, Malcolm and you all for your wonderful help.
Alex. :)
