Ahoy - Mac's Web Log

Hello Mr Gregory,

I am a genealogist and found your article re: Father commanded the Northern Spray on Convoy ONS5 and the response by Robert Downer. He mentions his wife's connections to Fairfax Moresby. I have been researching the Moresby family for many years as my 4th great-grand aunt Mary Rotton married Admiral Fairfax Moresby. I have not been able to find living descendents during all this time.

Do you have any contact information for Richard Downer? I would love to be able to make contact with him and discuss his wife's family connections to Fairfax Moresby.

any help you may offer is most appreciated

thank you
Deborah Woo

I have asked Richard to respond directly to Deborah.

Dear Mac,

I have just found on your site a very recent connection to Fairfax Moresby. I am not quite sure how to enter correspondence via your web. Another person by the name of Deborah Woo made a request to you as recent as the 25 th August  2006. She may be interested to know that we have a photo of Mary.

Would you be able to connect us?

Thank you Barry.

Barry,

You are not able to reply directly to a correspondent whose letter is up on AHOY, it is our principle never to pass on anyone's E-Mail address without firstly gaining their approval. In your case having asked me to request Deborah to contact you, I have done just that.

I trust you hear from her soon.

Should you like to send me a copy of Mary's photo, we will put it up on AHOY if its OK with you. 

Best wishes and regards.

Mac.
