Hi to all researchers. I'm a newbie to genanz  & newbie to researching  & new to
the world of computers & chat rooms.  I am researching the Boyns Family (
Gympie,Croydon Q, Cairns) & all  related families. Canon Butterworth arrived as
a 17yr old on ship Carpentaria 1909 & arrived in Cairns with parents.   Also  I
am having trouble finding info about my gt.gr/parents. Robert Henry Brown is my
mother's g/father but cant find who my g/g/mother is.  They arrived Rockhampton 
circa 1890 & my g/m grew up there.   Is there anyone out there who might be
searching for any of these names?     Would love to hear from
someone ---cottage4

Hi Marilyn

There are a couple of Robert Henry BROWNs in Qld electoral rolls 1903 -1954
but none resident in the Rockhampton area

Suggest you try re posting this on the Qld mailing list
http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/intl/AUS/AUS-QLD.html

Perhaps breaking this email into one per family name and its a good move to
select a new email for such and not piggy back your new email to an existing
one
Could be worth a try searching the Qld lists archives too

Bye

Marilyn, you don't provide much information here to allow other people to
help you. The Qld BDM indexes are online:

https://www.bdm.qld.gov.au/IndexSearch/BirIndexQry.m

They show the deaths of 4 Robert Henry Browns and include the names of the
parents. However, without knowing a little more about your Robert Henry
Brown, it's rather hard to say if any of them is your Robert Henry Brown.
