I am currently writing a piece for The Landed Families of Britain and Ireland on the Barne family of Sotterley (Suffolk). The current head of the family is Miles Robin Barne (b. 1940), who spent much of his early life in Papua New Guinea and Australia. His first marriage and the birth of his two sons apparently took place in Australia. I have managed to identify his younger son, who has now taken over the management of the Sotterley estate, but I have not been able to trace the name of his first wife or of his elder son, who I imagine now runs the Australian farm at Moree (NSW). Can anyone in this group able to fill in these gaps?

I don't know whether she was first wife, but I have only that he married Teresa Yates in 1998.

Rather late in the day I imagine, but I had a quick look at this last week and came up with nothing much so thought it worth another go; unfortunately nothing much this time either, but I note a Tessa Susan Barne (1960-) as a fellow director of a company to which Miles Robin Barne is attached (and of the same correspondence address), presumably his second wife Teresa (née Yates) as aforementioned?

I assume the Thomas Michael Barne (1979-), director of Sotterley Investments Ltd, is the second son you mentioned, Mr Kingsley? I'm afraid I couldn't find anything relating to the Barne family at Moree.
