Hi all. I notice that norah has not responded to these posts for quite some time.
However, for those who might be interested, you will find my work on this McMurdo line on my website at www.blackwoodfh.com
I'll be happy to discuss sources, and can be contacted directly through my link as Compiler.

Norah, I have been researching a Thomas McMurdo who was born in Keir, Dumfriesshire about 1827. He married a Lillias Gray at Troqueer in 1848, and they had several children in Scotland before moving to Durham.
I wondered whether your post might be connected to the same family. Lillias died at Easington, Durham in 1879.

Thankyou Mum Mum. The lady in question is the mother-in-law of my niece, and she has been searching for years for her Matthews relatives. She lives in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Although drawing a blank with Rowlands, I have researched the Matthews line back to the 1840's in Sydney. I will leave my friend to introduce herself, and I have set up a session with her for Saturday 4th August to help her get on to the list. Reminds me a bit of "Find my Family" on TV, and maybe just as good an outcome.

Hi to this list. I have recently been doing some research on behalf of a daughter of the Edward Matthews who was born 5 December 1898 at Chiltern. He was the son of Edward Matthews and Elizabeth Ann Rowlands (if that was her real name). I have his marriage and death certificates. I have read through all ten pages of your posts on RootsChat with great interest, and have had the same problems with Elizabeth Ann Rowlands.  My friend confirms that her father seemed to know little about his parents or his siblings. I am in the process of setting her up with a RootsChat account so that she can communicate directly with you all,  so this post is just to confirm that the thread is still active.
Regards,
JB.
