• Notes

  My name is Pat Kennedy and I think there may be a link between us. My grandfather's name was William Mountford Shepherdson son of Robert Shepherdson of East or West Heslerton Yorkshire. Robert was born in 1813 and emigrated to Australia. Robert married Hannah Ellison at or near Kyenton Victoria in 1867. Robert's father was George Shepherdson and mother Charlotte Banks. I am interested that Robert married Mary Anderson in 1834 can you add anything further? Pat Morgan (nee Kennedy) 2004 - kmorgan-at-alphalink.com.au
