G'day, Samm. Don't think I spoken to you before. Welcome to my thread.....the more Aussies we have the easier it will be to keep the Brits out:)))

Sue xx

So you think, Miss Lynda:))

Keeping the Brits out, tut

You said I could be an honorary Aussie, so obviuosly you can't mean me.

I just had an email from an Aussie friend who was in Bah humbug mood, just because they didn't win some cricket match or other!

Ok Linda - I forgot I said you could be an honorary Aussie. What cricket match would that be I wonder?

Sue xx

PS do you live near Thirsk - been there and I love it and surrounding areas.

Good night all you downunders......Peace at last :)

North Yorkshire is indeed a lovely area of the country, (I have pm'd you my exact location). The whole of Yorkshire is indeed God's own county. My OH was so proud of his Yorkshire roots, he was horrified when I did his tree and discovered that his ancestors all came from down south, Berkshire to be exact, I don't think he has ever gotten over the shock

I can understand that Linda. My mum thought she was a West Yorkshire girl through and through and was so proud of it. I discovered that her maternal line was from Devon and her grandmother was born in London. We went to the village where her great grandmother was born and she felt no connection at all. I did but I think that doing the family research gives you that connection.

Hello, Jean. You're allowed on this thread just because I luvs ya:))

Sue xx

My Oh is a first generation Ozzie, his family are also from Yorkshire. Love my MIL to death, she is wonderful.

Gail

What about you Gail - are you British or Aussie born?

Sue xx

Born in Australia and have a second fleeter as an ancestor. Latest to arrive was in 1860 as a convict.

Gail

Distant rellies have migrated to South Australia in the late 1800's and then nobody as far as I can see until Mum, Dad and little me arrived in 1956.

Ok another question my Aussie friends. Born here or migrated as a child or adult? I know Allan came over in 1982 but what about the rest of you.

Sue xx

Born here, England that is lol

Linda, thanks so much for the website you gave me - found two burials there in Durham Rd. Cemetary that we didnt know about.

Sue xx

Me, my parents and three grandparents were born in Australia. Fourth g/parent and earlier generations all born in England.

My OH was born in Liverpool and emigrated in his twenties, so our children are slightly more than 50% Pom.

Hi all

Born in the UK.

Came out to Aussie land in the January of 69...I was just a babe in arms ( and still am...lol)

If we don't get our Tassie back
Weee'll chuck a hissy fit..O'i

It ain't there where we left it
