3 Spathaky, Mile - email communication Just now I'm researching a Comber family who migrated from Brighton Sussex to NSW in 1911-12. A couple, Charlie and Fanny Comber, and seven children, two spouses and a fiancee of the children and one brother of Charlie all migrated though not on the same boat.

1 Spathaky, Mile - email communication 15 March 2008 Last week my wife and I arrived back in Australia and yesterday we made first contact with the Australian descendants. From them we learned that Fanny was definitely born 1861 and her father was Thomas Thwaites of Brighton. I looked again for under Withall to see if there was a connection to that as a surname and there she was - born as Fanny Withall born Sep quarter 1861. She is the daughter of Thomas Thwaites and Mary Ann Withall Census returns for England, 1871, www.ancestry.co.uk RG10 ce: 1082
