Watson/Dunbar families
« on: Saturday 14 July 12 05:29 BST (UK) »
Hi I am looking for any information about the following families. James Watson born abt 1827 Edinburgh and his wife Jean or Jane Dunbar born abt 1826 Liff, Forfarshire. I believe James and Jane were married in 1854 in Dundee and came to Australia in 1859 aboard the Glentanner.
