I'm not Mal ... he is I believe australian ......

I was checking up on my sister in laws family her father was Lockhart Horsburgh and Lockhart was a family name passed down on their branch of the family .... the site linked above actually gives a story about how the name came into being.

My sister in law has also spoken about cousins named Bowman ... Cellardyke was also I believe her fathers birthplace.
