Of course a great many people in this country have links to Australia! Statistics dont mean a lot to me, but I am one of them. I have a link to one of the founders of Adelaide. One of my ancestors married his son, founded a dynasty and a town in South Australia. It is with great pride that our family continues to maintain that link today with our cousins in Australia after 5 or 6 generations.

Searching the combined Australian BMD index shows no matches for a surname. You can only see the matches by searching the individual B, M & D indexes.

An amazing statistic. Please shre the source. I’ sure 1 in 3 Aussies have British roots but1 in 3 Brits with Aussue roots sounds incredible

Bit of a tease telling us we can search these records without telling us that we have to have a Worldwide membership
