There was a EDWARD EUDEY having children in Vic and it is possible she was among the eldest of these and born prior to the family immigration.

Sue and Dale, THANK YOU again!

This really is wonderful. I have had an email back from one of the family trees I contacted and although a distant connection they seem to confirm everything. There's a more direct descendant they know of who I am hoping will get in touch as together with the information you've all been so great to bring me, we have a chance to straighten out a lot of details and make a family connection I didn't even know I had!

And people in my family wonder why I'm so addicted to this.
