Hello

My family Burnett family history search begins with my GG grandfather

William Burnett born Aberdeen 1823. father James born Scotland 1781 Mother jane (beckett ) born 1786.

William came to Australia somewhere between 1843 & 1846. he married Margaret McFarlane in 1949 . He was a miner and lived in Illabarook . he died in 1893 and is buried in Rokewood Victoria Australia.

Any information about William-his birth /immigration to Australia or his parents would be very appreciated.

Hi Jan, I was wondering if you have a record to show he was born in Aberdeen. I found him, but I cannot find him or his parents in the 1841 census. My colleague Lawrence found a marriage record in Aberdeen, but that is also not straightforward. Please write to me at terrybarwin@gmail.com
