Would love contact with anyone with info on the Australian and New Zealand family branches of the BIDMEADES. My great-grandfather was Frederick Jones/Bidmeade (born cir1845 Eng, Arr Aust 1855), he changed the family name in 1877 co-inciding with a family relocation from South Australia to New Zealand). He had seven children, who variously settled either in New Zealand or Australia. Frederick Jones/Bidmeade's grandmother was Sarah (nee Morgan) Jones (born cir 1814 Eng), whose own mother was apparently Hester (nee Bidmead) Morgan, from Gloucester (?) England, married Richard Morgan cir1800. It would be especially appreciated to gain any info on these Bidmead/Bidmeade lines.
