hello Kath

RootsChat is more about finding folks from the past than the present - but Jenn has given you one of the best sites in Oz for finding living relatives. There are quite a number of records for Pigdon's at the Australian archives - mainly service records for WWI and WWII which may be of use.

http://www.naa.gov.au/the_collection/recordsearch.html  - search as a guest

Perhaps there may be some folks with this surname researching via RC  :)

Hi,
My gg grandmother was Grace Pigdon born 1849 daughter of George Stephenson Pigdon and Mary Ann Wilkinson who came to VIC as a child with her family. Would love to swap notes with you.

       Hi There I hope you are keeping well
It is good to be in contact with someone in Oz who is a member
of the Pigdon family.
I have a paper copy of the Pigdon Family Tree from Australia
with your relatives on it I believe.
If you would like more details e mail me at (*)
                                  Regards Kath RAF

Hi Kath, have you obtained the book on the Pigdons. I could possibly get you a copy if they are not all gone. It was put out by my cousin who was a Pigdon.
The book has heaps of photos of the Pigdons and the story when they arrived in Australia with lots of very interesting stories. I have read it twice and couldn't put it down.
Send me your email privately and I will get the information to you.
cheers for now
