Subject: Limond Family Name

I'm hoping someone can give me some clues to finding my
ggrandfather's family.
.He was Edward Harry Lewis Limond, son of Hugh James Limond (a
soldier) and Dora Evans. Edward was supposedly born c1831 in
Picton, NSW, Australia, this place of birth appears on all his
Australian records. Trouble is there is no record of his baptism or
any evidence of his parents ever being in Australia or New Zealand,
although being army folk this could explain it.

However, at Picton in NSW, at this time was another Limond family
the head being Joseph Limond born c1816 in Ayr, Scotland, bit too
much of a coincidence! Limond is still an uncommon name in
Australia today.
Cheers,
