Hi Nudge67

Have a strong feeling your Hornsby of the 19th cent NSW has connections to my tree.   Could be way out but wortha go.

My Hornsbys of say 30 miles around Hereford connected to the area to at least 1600s, 1500s in and around Shipston/Stratford.    They were clans of basket makers in the main.
Let me know of your Hornsby NSW and other Hornsbys NSW
George went out on enforced vacation over a couple of hens, he was paroled and died at Parmetta 1863 (your original Sydney).
Charles went out there because he ws a little more adventurous!  He was tried at Oswestry.  Later pardoned and returned to continue his family raising at Kingsland or Kington, Heref.
Another clan son Charles, orig of Tenbury and Leominster, Heref.,  was a servant on a farm at Cleobury Mortimer, Oswestry,  and died Ludlow, Shrops., c1903.
If these don't fit would like to know of your NSW Hornsby(s) as may be an offspring connection.

Goose: hi:  back to geneology!

if it is of any interest to you I knew the Fair family of Birmingham who i belikeve were interconmnected to the London Fair family.   in the early 1800s i am  aware the Fair family were connected to horse dealing and the associated fairs.   part of the the Birmingham family connection settled to the Birmingham Horse Fair district which is now Bristol Street.
Also in surname interests you may have a connection to W105UK on this ad forum discussion in the Boreham family.  worth a check.  john
