From on Sat, 01 Jan 2005

I am researching the Budge family. Samuel Budge married Catherine Sloane 1871 at Williamstown. They came to Queensland where I have them with Mary, James and Samuel. I haven't touched this research for a long time so will hopefully be able to help you a little after I have gone back over my notes.
