Hi Jimmy,
  I try to visit NSW SRO about every 3 or 4 weeks to take photographs of probate packets, divorces etc for rootschatters.

  I suspect that there are dozens of relevant probates for your family.  If you order them by priority I will fit them in when I can.  (You can just pm me with your wish-list).

  https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/archives

Since they have "upgraded"  their website, it is easier to type into the main search box on home page
   Dimond probate
etc and then select the relevant ones.

Or can also use keyname search for other info http://indexes.records.nsw.gov.au/keyname.aspx

Hi Ros
To be honest,I wouldn't know where to start,we were trying to find if my wife had any living relatives in aus from her great grandfathers brothers and sisters and we're now building a fantastic family tree of her family in Australia which is far in excess of what we were expecting,although as yet we are still hoping to make contact with relatives,this journey is fantastic
We really can't thank you ( and jamjar )enough
Regards
Jimmy

Now that Jamjar's found some current surnames for your family, you could check whitepages
https://www.whitepages.com.au/residential
and perhaps write a letter to those with appropriate initials.  Luckily the surnames aren't too common.

You could also try facebook and linkedin for the children mentioned in the death notices.

And later when you have had time to absorb it all you may find some probates etc that you want.

regards,
   Ros

Jimmy, Margaret - daughter of John and Margaret - did arrive on the ship Fortune, but in 1853.

She was with husband Thomas Burns age 26 and sons Patrick age 1 and James age 2. She was 19.

Other Burns on the ship were James 24 and Jane 22.

It's been a battle sorting her family as she married three times.

More on her, tomorrow.

Nice one jamjar,I was actually just re reading the what you had previously posted regarding Margaret and Thomas arriving

[Jamjar]

ADDED: I've removed the PDF of Margaret's line, as I am typing the notices, put up by Ros, into the correct places in the document.

Have just finished the tree of Margaret and Thomas Burns. There are some areas that would need the purchase of certificates in order to be sure the information was correct. I've made notes when things were are bit iffy.

There are two PDF, as I had to take some photos out due to the PDF being larger than what we are allowed to upload here. The photos go in the section where you will see a headstone for the Alewood's.
