Ann was that an attempt at humour?
Tasmania is a State of Australia, not a separate country!!!

Cheryle,
We have a connection to Bigwoods on my wifes side if the family. one of her uncles married a Zetta J Bigwood in Waverly,Sydney. Nsw. Australia in 1931, I don't have a DOB for her as I haven"t gone that way yet, but her father was Gordon Bath Bigwood, mother, Mildred.

Looking thrugh the BDMs for NSW 1850-1909: 2 Births
1850-1959: 7 Marriages
1830-1979:14 Deaths

Regards
Graham
