Australia / Re: George PADGETT - Ballarat Victoria

Information from a family descendant of George and Martha Padgett . PADGET ONE NAME STUDY ON FB . As you know as part of my One Name Study I am studying Padget's (and variants of the name) everywhere! I have started in Yorkshire England and as a group we have been looking at Padget's of one particular family in Australia. At the moment I have over 4,500 people in the Padget tree and this consists of 52 separate families (and I have a long way to go ). At some point some of these families will probably merge together.
This is where you come in . I have found a George Padget born in 1833 in Camberidgeshire England to William Padgett (Farmer and a Sarah Curson) who went to Ballaret, Australia and married Martha Turner on 3 October 1855 there. There descendants all seem to have stayed there (As this was where Harold Guy Padget settled). It seems such a coincidence that they have settled in this particular place. So my question is to all the group members that have Padgett's in Ballerat is this a common name in that area and do any of you have these people in your tree? This information may be helpful , your inforamtion will be very helpful to the researcher in the UK
