My name is Geoff Turner and I live in Brisbane, Australia. I have been contacted by a cousin who lives in Dorset -- let's call her Kelly.
Ancestry tells us we are Half 3rd cousin 1 x removed or 3rd cousin 2 x removed. She is in her 30s and I am in my 70s so I suspect we would be 2 x removed.
We have four shared matches. The first and second have a common ancestor with me -- my 3 x great grandparents Robert Tilbrook and Millicent (Amelia) Hunnibal/Hanibal/Honeyball.
The third and fourth shared matches do not have a shared ancestor, just common DNA.
Kelly is not aware of any link with Robert Tilbrook and Millicent Hunnibal from the people on her tree.
We have done our best to establish a link between Kelly and the Tilbrooks. Three of the four Tilbrook sons emigrated to South Australia, so that should make things easier. At the moment the best we can guess is that Kelly's ancestor Jessie Underwood (1839-1895) must have had an extramarital affair with the remaining son, Stephen Tilbrook (1821-1898). But she was married to another man, James Slaney, when the child Alma was born, so good luck with proving that. 
Does anyone have any ideas about how we can explain the link between Kelly and I?
Thanks,
Geoff Turner

I checked for library access to FindMyPast in Brisbane. The State Library of Queensland is the only one with FindMyPast access -- and it "contains 50 million online records for Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands and Papua New Guinea". No UK service records. I was after just the one file I specified and was hoping someone could pass it on, just this once. Thanks.

Does anyone have access to FindMyPast? I am seeking as much information, copies of records etc, for this man, who is an ancestor of a friend. Thanks,
Geoff Turner

We were blessed for a while to have a Rootschat member in Sydney who offered to photograph other people's probate packets when she was going to NSW Archives at Kingswood. She was very generous with her time but moved away from Sydney and so could no longer help other people. I have now found an 1826 probate file that I would dearly love to have copied and wondered if anyone was offering a similar service. Message me privately for details, if you wish. Thanks, Geoff Turner
