Hi, I am researching the Munson family in Australia, am interested in contact with anyone doing the same, my tree starts with Benjamin Clover MUNSON (1828-1898) born in Essex, parents: James MUNSON (1798-1830) and Sarah SNOOD (1801-?). He emigrated about 1853 to Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, married Mary Jane SNOWDON (1840-1922) fathered 6 children: James Benjamin, Olinda Caroline, Clara Jane, Arthur William, Augustus Clement, Florence Caroline. He died in Prahan, Victoria. He was 1st mate on ships carrying cargo between Melbourne and Sydney, and is listed as a ship builder. I have had previous contact with British researchers of this family, am keen to reconect with them.
