Thanks for letting us know - it's so nice when people find what they need.  And now we've helped someone from another of the colonies LOL

I thought the book was most interesting.

Good Morning!

I noticed in the previous posting that there was an article link.  One of the people mentioned in the article was a Tinck. What is very strange is that my Mary Mutton's husband William Pearn died not to long after they arrived in Illinois.  She remained a Richard Tink who happened to be her first cousin.  Richard Tink's parents are Samuel Tink and Catherine Mutton of Cornwall. Richard was born in 1835 in Lewannick.

I am now on p160 of Out of Cornwall and it is indeed fascinating. I am informed it is currently being reprinted and can recommend it to anyone who, of course, has any connection with this family but also to anyone who is interested in the history of families in general, and in pioneering families in particular. "Bravery" doesn't quite do them justice!

Hi,
I am just wording if you were able to track down a copy of 'William and Ann Webb : A family history' By Ken Muggleston. I am trying to find a copy. I contacted the Bathurst Fanily History group - but they have been unable to find there copy.

No Bob I'm afraid I haven't. Maybe the Australian National Library might be worth a try? I have ordered pages from journals from them to be emailed on-line so this is a possibility. Please let me know if you find a copy and good luck!

And a belated welcome to rootschat!
PS I can recommend reading the journal of Arthur Wilcox Manning describing his journey aboard the Earl Grey. It's interesting in its own right but even more so when you remember that the Webbs were aboard ship at the same time. (The handwriting is also easy to read!)

Couldn't see anything about the Webb family history book on the NLA catalogue.

http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/

This article mentions Ken's book and quotes from it with spelling of his name as 'Muggleston' and 'Mugglestone'
