Hi there,

I noticed your entry on the Bacom and Leonards.  I am a descendant of William Henry Leonard. 

I would be interested in finding out from you what info you have on the Bacom's and Leonard's.  I noticed the post was quite old and I have just picked up the family tree stuff again myself.

Looking forward to your reply

James and Mary Ann were my gg grandparents. They emigrated to Rockhampton in Queensland on the Alexandrina in 1873 then moved to Charters Towers looking for gold. There is a lot of info about them on line. They had a son Frederick. My great Grandfather. He in turn had another son also called Frederick, my Grandfather. He fought in France in WW1 but came back to Australia passing away in 1953.
