Hi Karen,

Many thanks for your email, yes it is so very strange that your John Shorter was a visitor to the Daborns in Horsell in 1851. I am certain that some people would say that is some sort of a sign!!!
Currently working hard in using all the BMD data that is now available together with all the census info, so we can update the website at the end of February. I have been recorded birth data regarding Daborn and find to my horror that the birth rate accelerates very steeply after 1901, so will have plenty of work with the 1911 census in a few years time.
Had no real luck in tracing Daborns in Canada and Australia that can be positively identified as originating in Surrey, but had little time to really work at it. The Daborn family now has close on 1,000 members; why I am looking for more?
I have just checked my Shorter connections and it goes something like this
William Harvey married Ann Shorter they had a daughter Mary Ann Harvey who married James Turner they had a daughter Mary Ann Turner who married Alan Daborn. If you would like more details just ask.

All the very best for now

David

Jenn,

All the info I have is Edward Daborn born c 1877 Hammersmith London and he died in the first WW 1919 as an Australian Infantry, A.I.F. man.

Sorry not much info but Daborn is not a common name in the UK.

Hope this helps, all my info is on our website at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~macculloch/

I am seeking any information regarding the Bowie & Mcculluch family of Linlithgow.

Any assistance with this would be much appreciated.
