I will be able to fill you on a number of the family when I return home at the end of next week I live in Allingham which is north of Townsville Qld. My sister who lives in Wodonga is also interested in the family tree. Some time ago I wrote the family history of the Saxtons in Australia.
will keep you posted in a week or so
