Hey steve, James Barnard came to Australia in 1851 at the age of 18. he was the only one from his family to come to Australia. he had many children that both you and i are descended from.

The only information I have on my nans family is what you have provided.
I am compiling it at the moment.
I am now going to research Thomas Watts family from lancashire England and see how far I am able to go back.

Any further information you could provide is always greatly appreciated sparrett.

My apologies again.
I have gone back and re read the thread.

That very much sounds like the family.
I had just assumed my great grandparents mary and fred were born in Australia.

My mother is from lancashire England, gee i hope her family and Fred or mary's families are not related..lol...but i hope not.

Ty so much for your time and effort  greatly appreciated.

My apologies Sue.

I dont have any further information to go on here. I am the first person to invesigate my nan's side of the family so finding information is difficult.

Fred Watts and his wife Mary are buried at the Sunbury Cemetary. That is how I got their information. that is all i know about my nan's family.
The Sunbury cemetary goes back to 1840's so it might be a good idea to include it on your list.

I know Fred Watts was the Secretary of the Sunbury Agricultural society from 1916 to his death in 1936 and they have the Fred Watts Memorial Trophy in place as an award for excellence given to people from the S.A .Society.

Ty so much to everyone so far with your assistance,  it means alot to me.
It looks like i might get stuck here on Thomas Watts, all i have is that he may have lived in the Fryers town area during the 1830's to the 1860's as the first of his 8 children were born there.
