Charles Overend Garbutt
« on: Monday 16 February 09 21:55 GMT (UK) »
I would love to hear from anyone related to or interested in Charles Overend Garbutt 1850-1905, after whom the suburb of Garbutt is named.
I have been contacted by two of his great grand daughters and it would be nice to get a picture of todays family.

Happy share what I have on the Garbutt family going back to 1721 in yorkshire.
