WELL I'M AMAZED!

I have just finished reading the 31 pages of part 2 and it brought tears to my eyes.  Michel and Liverpool Annie and all the rest, you are amazing.  What a quest and to find success is wonderful.  I will now have to read parts 1 and 3.

I have sent a message to my first cousin, who is also a direct Joseph descendent.  This is all a fantastic surprise.
(I did rather get bogged down in the Euclid Hope Butterworth bit)!

Hello Lyn,

Thanks for alerting me to this extraordinary thread.  What a story.

And 'hats off' to everyone that researched it.  You've helped reinvigorate my own interest in the AU branch of the Stead family tree.

Cheers - CLR

Hi Lyn !

Glad you were able to see it ... I know the Butterworth family was a little out on a limb ... but maybe a researcher will find it and be happy !!  :D

We're all so proud of our soldier and I won't spoil the rest of the story for you ... but we do have a happy ending ! ::)

Hi also to CLR and welcome !

We're very glad you joined us ! ... can't wait to hear what snippets you can maybe add to our story !

Annie  :)

A new Year and a new start.  Annie, I reckon we all hope that there will be more news for how can we ever forget Robert?

Your welcome Lyn is more than anybody can describe as Robert became part of our lives and he could never be forgotten.
