Quote from: Rod In Sussex on Monday 18 April 05 22:59 BST (UK)
Nice to have a few overseas ideas from Oz, but there are must be far more in the UK. What about Stains? Or Rottingdean in Sussex? Or Dymchurch in Kent? And is Horsham in Sussex misspelt?

I really think some of you could try a bit more!!!!

Hi Linda,

I haven't started researching my Wilsons yet - only go back to 1889 in Australia.
Did your Wilsons go to Australia?
