Dear Norma
I have just come across your message at the Rootsweb Thackaberry message board.
>Can anybody tell me if it is true that the Thackaberry name is connected to the outlaw Ned Kelly in Australia in the 1800s?
As far as I am aware, we are the only Thackaberry family in Australia (my husband came here in 1970). However, I know of a Tackaberry family who came to Victoria, where the Kellys also lived, in the 1800s. I would be interested to know what information you have, then I may be able to do some research to see whether there is a link.
Regards
Robin Thackaberry
