Firstly let me say I think there should have been a law against people with the same surname in the same area using the same Christian names for their offspring, or at the very least the mothers maiden name should have been included. Would have caused us all much less confusion.

Now can anyone help with this little conundrum?

A: John Warman (a currier) and Elizabeth Burgess married 17/12/1741 @ St Mary Sandwich, Kent, had (among other children)

B: Charles (a currier) b abt. 1753 who married Elizabeth Reynolds at Ash in 1778

C: William Warman (a drpaer) b abt 1752 who married Mary Marsh @ Sandwich in 1775.

B, had D. William born 1784 in St Mary, Sandwich, Kent

B. had E Charles born 1795 in St Mary, Sandwich, KEnt

C. . had F. Wm 02/01/1780
in St Peter, Sandwich, Kent

Not sure what happened to D at this stage.

E married Elizabeth Reynolds @ Dover in 1824 and came alone to Australia in 1829. His wife followed in 1833 with 3 daughters, the rest of his family were born in NSW.

F. married Phoebe Farrier on 12/09 /181 in Sandwich, Kent

THEN there was another lot of Warmans:

G. William Warman who married Elizabeth Crickett on 06/11/1776 @ St Mary Sandwich

G. had H Charles Warman baptised 17/08 1785

H. married Sarah Doran in St Mary Sandwich on 06//07/1805

H had I. Wm John Warman b. St Peter's Sandwich in 1816.

I.. married Louisa Maria Newing.

The puzzle is do the A-F Warmans connect with the G-I Warmans and if so how. My theory atm is they are descendants of a brother or cousin to John Warman.
 Can anyone help.

BTW I am told the father of John Warman md to Elizabeth Burgess is John Warman md to Ann Davenport. I have found a few references to a John Warman and a Hannah in the right time and place and wonder if she might be Ann.

Thanks everyone.

My ancestor William Plummer (born Creed Cornwall) C 1818 came to Australia aboard Walter Morrice in 1849. He travelled with wife Mary (nee Arthur) and sons Thomas, William and Isaac.

Apparently William had a brother already living in Australia.
Parents names were John and Mary (nee Nichol(ls)

Williams other siblings possibly include John(1822) Elizabeth (1824) and Jane (1831). If any one ahs a male Plummer coming to Australia from Cornwall before 1849, please let me know.



Thanks

I was recently sent an excel tree, which is far too cumbersome for me to navigate. Is there a programme that converts excel to gedcom on Macintosh. I need to point out here that I am fairly technochallenged.

Also, What's the best family tree software for Macintosh??

Thanks

I certainly will. There seems to be a lot of Plummers in Tasmania. So far I don't think we are connected to them, but you never know.

My grandfather was one of 15 (of which 13 survived to adulthood) so the descendents and relatives have to be out there somewhere
