Looking for Haw of Clunes,VIC,Australia
I am trying to find birthplace of Isaac Haw (d Clunes VIC 03/12/1880).
He married Sarah Copeland (? where and when) and they had my GG Grandmother Keturah Haw at Talbot, VIC, Australia.
I am trying to find both Isaac Haw's birthplace, parents and emigration details to Australia.
I am also trying to find similar details for his wife, Sarah Copeland.
Anyone having any details - it would help me as I am at another dead end in my family tree.
Ammej :)

RootsWeb World Connect Project - family tree of Mary Cotter. Funnily enough I've been in contact with Mary before as she has quite a few of our DENNERs in her tree. She has parents of your Isaac HAW as being William HAW and Mary MANNERS. Mary would welcome any corrections/additions that you may have.
Generally, remember to check out RootsChat then goto their Emigrants to Australia board once you have registered as a new user (free site). Lots of Rootschatters have 'Digger' type software on their computers, and 'VIC bdms' on cd-roms etc. They are happy to do lookups for rootschatters.
Did you have a look at the National Archives of Australia. Click on the third khaki coloured tab entitled Collection, then click on from their drop down list, Record Search, then click on Search Now as a guest user. Keep it simple, just type in your surname and click on the search button.
And you can't go past this site as lots of people first came to the Colony of New South Wales. State Records of NSW. Click on the State Archives, click on KeyName search in the first column, then type in say HAW, press enter, and interestingly you will see data like convict pardons, deposition registers, Estate papers, registers of firms, passenger arrivals, tickets of leave/pardon etc.
