WELCOME TO MY FAMILY TREE AND HISTORY WEBSITE

This family history has been compiled over a number of years by Allyson Luders with the assistance of many people. A number of branches of the family have been published by other genealogy enthusiasts within the family. These include Duffield, Milne, Menzel, Le Plastrier and Sherwood. I would like to thank everyone who has helped compile this information from close family members to distant cousins like Eddington (Ted) Sherwood and Frank Pearce. The Ancestry is very diverse with families from England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Germany and Prussia.

This web­site con­tains a vari­ety of infor­ma­tion on the fam­i­ly includ­ing Mil­i­tary Records ( thanks to the Aus­tralian War Memo­r­i­al and the Com­mon­wealth Graves Com­mis­sion), per­son­al his­to­ries where they have been record­ed, pho­tographs of fam­i­ly mem­bers that can be iden­ti­fied, infor­ma­tion on places of ori­gin, a list of the old­est known ances­tors, infor­ma­tion with­in the fam­i­ly tree, links to oth­er sites and an oppor­tu­ni­ty to con­tact me for more infor­ma­tion or to add to what I already have on the web site or my per­son­al data­base.
