Hi all... It will take me a little while to find my way around this forum since I am by no means experienced in using forums in general.
I was directed here as there are a couple of people researching the McCallion name that may be connected to my own ancestors who arrived in Australia under the name McCallion in 1841 and subsequently changed their name to "Collins" before settling in the Bega Valley.
Any help especially regarding prior to 1840, or of Owen (McCallion/Callan/Collins) and Anne Gorman, Prior to Annes death in Australia in 1866, is much appreciated.
I also have a fairly extensive list of the "Collins" of the Sth Coast of NSW, Australia, circa 1850's through to mid 1900's (which includes, Bateman, Heffernan, Tarlington, McMullen, Foley, Coman, and a a few others later in that time frame).
