I have been researching my family tree since around 2002. A search for my 
father's grave in a remote part of Western Australia started the thirst for 
more family information which has taken me across the waters to England, 
Europe, America, New Zealand and all parts of Australia and Tasmania. This 
internet travel has put me in regular contact with new family members, friends 
and many interesting people. I have commenced this website to pass my family 
history to other researchers and to the younger generations of my family so 
that they will never forget where their roots began.
If you feel you may be related to any person mentioned in my website or may 
have information I can add or share with someone else I would be delighted to 
hear from you.
I am not actively researching all these names but may have information that I 
can pass onto you or place you in contact with someone else.

If you wish to conatct me, please send your comments to my email or the 
guestbook.

I would like to thank the following relations, friends and casual 
contacts for their help and support in setting up this site, their family 
information and photos so their children's children can continue to learn 
about their family connections.

Descendants of Bridget Bowden nee McQueeny:

It is nearly 100 years since Bridget's death in 1908 and her monument in the 
Roma Cemetery is in need of some TLC. The monies have now been raised and the works 
have been completed. I have set a date for a family gathering and blessing of the 
grave in Roma, Queensland for Saturday 4th October 2008 at 4pm. 

I would like to thank the following for their help with raising the funds for 
the restoration of Bridget's grave.
