Hi Wendy.
I wonder where Daniel Bruce comes from. My g'g' grandmother was Margaret Ann Bruce. Her father was in the army and the family moved around a lot.Margaret was born in Ireland and when the family moved to Australia they left Margaret in Ireland as a baby. Don't know why. As far as I know she was the only one left behind. Buuut I may be wrong. Margaret Ann married Wm John Crowe. One of their children was Ellen who married James Watson. I have had a lot of help from Maggie Little, There is always a connection somewhere if only we can find it.
It was good to put your face to your name on facebook.
Best regards.
Gladys.

Hi,
   In 1856 William John Crow(e) married Margaret Ann Bruce in Derriaghy Church of Ireland, Lisburn. The fathers' names were William Crow(e) and Richard Bruce.

Hi Gladys....

Hope all is well....I have to agree with you about there being a connection somewhere!!! We have soooo, many surnames in common.  I can tell you the Gardiner's that I know of, come into the family though my Susannah Hedley's side (she married James Watson Close 1st in 1866)....an Agnes Hedley married a Gardiner, he died and she remarried.....and ended up in Scotland. I have all the info, just don't have time at the minute to find it as only home for lunch from work....will look it up and send you the details.

Have a great day.
Wendy
