Hello ,my name is Pat Barden from Adamstown,co.Wexford,Ireland.I know that part of my family moved to Australia and then we think to Newzealand around 1900.That was the last we knew of them.

We note that Bardens are local historians in the Newcastle area.We wonder would they have any records or any knowledge at all of our family who left Ireland around this time.

Looking foward to hearing from you,

Pat Barden
