It's over 10 years on and I am still collecting and collating. I am still in contact with lots more 'cousins' from all over the world. Did not realize this 'hobby' was so addictive.  A very special thanks to Shirley O'Donovan for sending my great aunt, Eileen  Ryans (nee Coulon) research and  giving me a good head start on my  Coulon/Fowler lines.
 My new found 'cousins' Elizabeth (Scotland, McBeath line) and Kerrie  (Australia, Jewell line) have also contributed and shared some of our  family history with me. David Conroyd has been very generous and shared his  research on the Cotterel line. Mary Cotter has given me lots of help getting over my brick walls. My Godmother has sent some photos of the Phillips and Silver line and this kind gesture is very much appreciated. Barbara Corrigan has also selflessly sent me her Macleay Family research. Susan Tutin has been researching the Fletcher family for a few years and has sent me lots of gems. Pete and Andre Coulon have visited me and allowed me to scan some very old photos that they have, thanks fellas.
 A special big thanks to all the chatters for their on going guidance, help and  support, and especially for the photo restorations.
 DNA has given me the relationship my aunt had with Sam, as has the Electoral Rolls. I had come to the sad realization that Sidney Robertson is NOT my fathers, father. Was suspecting it, I asked my Godmother if there was any question about dads heritage and she said  "yes", dad was always asking Minnie who his father was and she told him he didn't need to know....sigh.....   Start with Ronald Robertson, thats my dad.
 Cheers
