William Watters of Crowan Cornwall
« on: Tuesday 31 March 15 06:22 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,

I am searching for information about William Watters of Crowan Cornwall b1800, husband of Lenora Holman.  They migrated to Australia and lived at Wilunga South Australia.  I have read some posts of others related to these two but have not been able to contact them.  Any information about them or their ancestors would be much appreciated.

There are three lists of their children on the other thread

John WALTERS son of William & Leanora, 30th. January, 1831. Father - Miner.
Mary Jane WATERS dau of William & Leonora, 19th. November, 1837. Father - Farmer.
Stephen WATERS son of William & Leonora, 27th. May, 1824. Father - Miner.
Johanna WATTERS dau of William & Leonora, 02nd. February, 1834. Father - Miner"
Samuel WATTERS 11 Aug 1822
Elizabeth Ann WATTERS 1836
Sally Holman WATTERS abt 1845

I can see Sally Holman Watters b 02 Feb 1845, Crowan in the Cornish OPC
http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/more-info/?t=baptisms&id=3341142
and also
Johanna Watters b 02 Feb 1834, Crowan
http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/more-info/?t=baptisms&id=3339425

I'd probably do a bit more searching on exact dates for the other in the Cornish OPC and try to find all the exact entries

The Athegian
Are you able to tell us who in particular in this family are you connected to?

Are you looking for the forward links  in Australia, or the earlier ones in Cornwall?

If it is about Australia, you could request a move for your topic to the Australian board of rootschat.

If about the Cornwall ties, you are probably in good hands right here   ;D
