OK, thanks Frances. Not sure how this site works, but hopefully this post means I will get your message.

And here's a pic of the gravestone with a much younger me.

Just dug up the notes I had on the gravestone inscription: "Erected by Charles McCauley in memory of his father Daniel McCauley who died 29 July 1834 - aged 75 years. And his mother Jane McCauley who died 20th May 1841 - Aged 60 years.
So they got married only 6 days after his mum died and then on 8th July they jumped on the boat (New York Packet) at Greenock in Scotland to come to Sydney - pretty tough people.

Hi Charles,
My name is Jonathan McCauley. I'm a descendant of Charles McCauley and Sarah McMaster. Their son Samuel was my great grandfather. His son Frank was my grandfather. And his son Brian is my dad. Not sure how we are related or if we may have met via my dad's cousin John.
I did a bit on the family history a few years ago (along with John, now deceased). Charles' parents were Daniel and Jane (sometimes known as Jennette). They are buried in St John's Church Donegore, which I visited about 20 years ago. I have quite a few bits and pieces that may be of interest. Just let me know.
Regards,
Jono
Sorry - just realised I've called you Charles - think it's actually Frances? (Which is a very common name in our strand of the family)
