Greetings one and all!
You have entered the homepage of the Brookman (Dad's side) and Rogers (Mum's side) Family Tree. And while it may not be immediately apparent, we are an Australian (ahem... sorry: Ostrayan) family!
The Brookman side of our clan originated from the green hills of Somerset and Dorset,in the U.K, whilst the Rogers side hailed largely from Ireland and Scotland.
Whilst my Mother and I have been hacking away at this geneological "thing" for around 5 years now, we simply MUST acknowledge the many good people who have assisted us along the way; It could not have been done without the kindness of you folk out there!
Some of you are (in alphabetical order, mind you):
Kevin Bean, Shirley and Bill Blake, Janet Booth, Audrey Boyle, Joan and Len Broadstock, Dave Brookman, Paul Brookman, Mia Coates, Margaret Collins, Roy and Margaret Comrie, Margaret & Jeffrey Cooper, Ernest Dickman, Ian and Karen Dickman, Ken Dickman, Sara Eade, Hazel Holcombe, Dianne Hughes, Alan Hyatt, Len Hyatt, Bryan King, Geoffrey Knott, Ian Knott, Lorna Leask, Pauline Long, David and Leeann Marriott, Charlotte Marshall-Potts, Isobel Rogers, Jaqueline Rogers, Robert Rogers, Walter Savige, Bob and Margaret Scott, Cecil Sing, Catherine Thompson, Nola Vella & Jean Weber.
Thank you, and keep up the great work!
Oh, and for all you newbies: Never discount a source because that "source" is merely a "twig" on the branches of your family tree! Or, it may only be an "insect" on the twigs of the branches of your family tree!!!
I kid you not: Most of the "good stuff" we have come across (i.e. been blessed with!) has come from the descendants of mutual ancestors of *alternate* family lines :)
We sincerely hope you enjoy your stay here, and if you would like to contact us - whether it be for genealogical reasons, or otherwise - then simply write to us through either the "Guestbook" option above, or the email form, but please include some detail as to our family connection.
Please note:
Our main family branches are as follows (in alphabetical order):
Adams, Ball, Biddle, Brookman, Comrie, Cox, Dalton, Dennis, Dickman, Dingwall, Dixon, Eade, Forster, Huffer, Hyatt, Knight, Knott, Marriott, Marshall, Mitchell, Ribbons, Rogers, Sing (King), Tait, Vowles & Wilkins ...
...and a few more here or there!
