I am still searching for my Henry Ling. He was born according to Henry's and Fanny's family Bible in 1845, in Kent UK. His parents were John and Susannah Mary Ling. He migrated to Australia, at sometime from 1845 to 1873, when he married Fanny Caroline Siggs Croft, in Bathurst NSW. Fanny had migrated with her family from Maidstone Kent, they had many family members in Cranbrook. I believe he was related to the Lings in Wollongong, and the Kennersons in Williamstown Victoria, as the DNA agrees with this. However, he was born in 1845, and I'm sure this is correct, looking at a photo in Bathurst (1883), of Henry and Fanny and their three young children, they are both young. i really want to know where he came from, and the ship he arrived on. He had a brother George and a sister Emma, according to my aunts knowledge, maybe a woman named Fairy, cropped up, oddly enough.
