Hiya, i think we may have relatives, James Rossbotham and Martha Lang. Just started my family tree and was speaking to my grandmother yesterday who said her grandmother's name was Anne Martha, either Lang or Lane (she's old, couldn't remember) and her grandfather's was John (close to James) Rossbotham. They were married in Sydney Australia.
They had 7 children William (died @ 2 yrs old), Florence, Ellen, Muriel, Olive, Lilah & John. Ellen was my grandmother's mum.
John or James Rossbotham had a brother (name unknown) who was in a wheelchair after an accident as a teen? (fell from a log), as an adult he went to New Zealand and opened a University there.
These are just a couple of the stories she told me but we ran out of time. I am talking to her again next week so if the link between us is correct I might be able to find out more info for you and vice versa.
I would dearly love to hear from you so we can compare notes as I know my grandmother has expressly wished to know more about her mother's family before she dies.
Please send me a personal message. Thanks
