Descendants and Ancestors of GARRARD From NORFOLK ENGLAND
RichardGarrard
I have a comprehensive Family tree of the Garrards from NORFOLK back to 1761. I am interested in finding any descendants who immigrated to America, Canada and Australia. Any information on ancestors of Daniel and Elcy Garrard c1761

RichardGarrard on 2011-02-06 14:27:31I can go back to 1066 and also the doomsday book to establish the Garrards, that's not a problem, but the problem is establishing a connection between my family tree and the garrard names and links found. There is a tentative link between the garrards of Norfolk and Suffolk with the garrard seat in Yorkshire going back to the 13th century. THanks for your reply, I will be happy to come back and up-date the Journal when more is found.

Don't tell me - your GARRARD clan were gold diggers and they came out to Australia to fill their pockets with nuggets ... well I could be wrong. But I did notice the GARRARD name entered the Victorian records in 1853 with marriages, followed by births on the gold fields in central Victoria.
If you can pass on any further details about your GARRARD lines in Australia I would be happy to do a bit of digging for you. You never know - I may strike gold!

When you have the names and departure dates we can check the records here (in Australia) for their landing dates, and then follow up with marriages, births and deaths.
