I am looking for anyone who is researching or descendants from William James Chapman who married Mary Case - arrived in 1881 to Rockhampton. The sons were Henry and James? (I think) - also John Arthur - (my husband's grandfather). I am not sure whether there were any daughters or their names.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Anna

Dear Robyn

Thanks so much! This is really exciting news for Arthur who spent his early life in an orphanage and did not know who his father's relatives were. He will be thrilled.

Regards

Anna

Thanks very much, Elizabeth. He will be really pleased to hear the news. Every little helps because he was in an orphanage as a child and did not know who his father's family were.

Thanks again, Robyn! William was Arthur's father who unfortunately died when he was four. He will be interested to know the birthdates for his uncle and aunt.

Are you still doing this Anna. Who are you? Arthur is/was my father. We lost touch many years ago. I think I've worked out who you are.
