Hello Sue

If you can find out why Jersey residents decided to emigrate to Australia, please let me know. Our Dorn family were similar to your Bridger's Anthony owned a pub was in the wine business and died in NSW of liver failure in 1910. Must have been something in the water in Jersey.

WE have been helped by several wonderful people in Jersey, but finding out about their lives on Jersey in the 1840 and why they came to Australia is eluding me. Maybe one day someone will post some ideas.
