Hi
I am new to this list.
I am looking for William GILL coal miner from Crosthwaite Cumberland.
He married Mary SCOTT in 1828 Crosthwaite Cumberland
They had
Ann?
Jane born 1826
John  1828
Mary 1829 my decendant
Mary, John, Mother Mary immigrated to Australia about 1852.
Mary GILL Married William REEVES 1858 Victoria Australia.
Mary mother died in Australia 1872
John died in Australia 1888
No sign of William GILL in Australia or Jane

My grandmother used to talk of a Lady Jane or Dianna GILL and The Marquis of Bute.

Any connection to your GILLs?
