About The News Family in Australia
Please sign in to see more.
Welcome, this is the website of the descendants of John News and Margaret Johnston (Granny News) who arrived with their baby son William Joseph News in Australia on the immigrant ship Gloriana in 1855 from Ireland. Currently we have the descendants of their daughter Catherine (Kate), but would love to contact other descendants from their other children.
With over 400 individuals we are now starting to expand our lines out, finding more ancestors and also looking at siblings in families and more relatives overseas. Related websites include that of the Kuban/Bailey line - please contact the site administrator for more information.
