This tree is a combination of research done by Ian Wanless of Australia (who we have actually not been in contact with; a printed copy of the tree was passed to us) and census research by Holly & Claire. William and all of his adult children moved to Victoria, Australia in the mid-1850s. We would welcome contact from Ian or his descendants, or any other branch of this tree.

Researchers: Ian Wanless of Australia, Holly Cochran, Claire Wandless

Please do not submit data gathered by others to other projects such as World Family Tree, Ancestral File, Ancestry World Tree, etc. without first obtaining the permission of the owner, who has worked hard to gather & present the information and may not want to share it in that manner. These projects tend to omit source information and remove important caveats about the reliability of certain key pieces of data, leading casual readers to believe that a line has been proven when it is in fact a tentative work in progress.

The creators and hosts of this page or site make no claim or estimates of the validity of the information submitted and remind you that each new piece of information must be researched and proved or disproved by weight of evidence.

Privacy Notice: With any large family, it is difficult to contact all the living descendants who might object to the inclusion of their name on this page. This database has been cleaned of dates for living people, but names are still present. Most name & date information is public record and if somebody really wanted to, they could dig up this information. That having been said, if you appear in this database and you want your name removed, just and you and your descendants will be removed shortly.
