Looking for any descendants out there of the William Boase family . William my ancestor was born 1832 in Newlyn Cornwall . His Wife was a Lucy Colston . William was a tin Miner and emigrated around 1860s to Victoria Australia. I know his background but am keen to see if there are any other BOASES out there ? I appreciate any info thank you.

Have you checked the surname interests board for other RootsChatter's interested in that surname ?
You can also add your own surnames.

Look at death notices for his children to get marriages and their children. Then have a look at VICBDM and WHITE PAGES (for addresses and phone numbers), for BOASE still living in VIC.

Thanks for all the links regarding William Boase . This is a big help in my family research of a family that travelled many miles for a better life , sadly the Boases had there share of ups and downs it seems.
with regards.
