I am trying to find anyone related to Caroline Chisholm (nee Jones), she is the lady who went out to Australia and became quite famous, even appearing on their 5 dollar note! She was born in Northampton in 1808, and died in 1877. She was married to Archibald Chisholm, he was from Scotland, Lochfin, to be precise. They had 7 children, 4 boys, and 3 girls. The girls I am not sure of, but the boys names where, Archibald, William, Sydney and John Henry(might be the other way round). Although there is quite a bit of onfo regarding Caroline, her children remain a mystery. My Grandmother, who is no longer with us, told everyone in our family that Caroline was my great, great, great grandmother, and I would dearly love to prove this, one way or another! So if anyone has any imformation, I would love to hear from you. Thanks. Suzy |
