Biography
I was born in Janolma Private hospital at Greenslopes Brisbane when my parents were living at "The Nook", Norman Park. I am the youngest of six and we moved later that year to a farm at Mains Road, Sunnybank. We were there for three and a half years until early February 1955. Terry had done one week at Runcorn State School and my birthday was about a week after we moved to Clayfield. I went to Eagle Junction State School and Brisbane Grammar School and left home when I got a job at AMP in 1971. Mary and I were married in 1976 and we lived at Union College until 1979 when Emily was born. James was born while we were living on a farm at Samford and I was doing my Dip T. at Carseldine NBCAE. I started teaching in 1981 and Matt was born in 1982. Erica was born in 1984 after we bought our first house at Stafford. We moved to Toowoomba in 1987 and Warwick at the end of 1988. We bought the farm at Stanthorpe in 2002 and started moving with Education Queensland in 2005. Mary did her degree in teaching and I started a Masters in Ed in 2007 at Murgon. I became a Guidance Officer in 2008 at Roma. Since then we have lived in Charleville, Stanthorpe, Brisbane and back to Charleville in 2017.

I am also a descendant of Catherine Butler and John Tooth, through Robert Tooth, then Frederick Tooth, then Caroline Tooth Dodgson. Loved reading about your mother and grandmother, strong and fierce, as was Caroline. Stories like those make me believe that we can figure out how to survive the awful weather that is being thrown at us. I am currently living in Puerto Rico, where every day now is a hurricane watch. Best wishes to you and yours, Susanna J Dodgson
Lovely to hear from you! Puerto Rico would have to be a Paradise when outside the hurricane season. We have similar weather in February in Queensland. I don't have any of the descendants of Frederick Tooth and Jane Jackson in my database. It would be wonderful if you could send me a Gedcom by private message. Is that possible? How long did they live in Sydney? Has anyone written their story? I've been diagnosed with terminal cancer so I don't know how long I've got and I'm working as fast as I can to get some things completed. I haven't done much on Wikitree for a few years and have forgotten how to navigate around. Fond Regards John Anderssen
I seem to have a number of common Haig ancestors (Haig-264, 259, 260 etc) Would you be interested in collaborating on these as I seem to have a little more information than what is in the current bios? Take care Lucy
John
I will be in touch. Take care

Congratulations on being Pre-1700 certified! Based on your ancestors, it looks like youre going to be working on profiles that fall under several Projects. I'm here to help you find one that best fits your needs.
Start by thinking about the particular time periods, locations, and topics in which you're interested. Do you have some historically-significant ancestors? Take a look at the list of active projects for examples of what we have going on.
If you see one that's just right, go ahead and join. Otherwise, let me know what you're looking for and I'll see what I can find.

WikiTree is different from other genealogy websites because our goal is to have one profile per person. That means we will all share ancestors and work together as a collaborative team! The Honor Code helps keep everything functioning smoothly as we work on our SHARED tree.
You should have received an email with links you can use to get started. Once you confirm your email address, you'll have an option to volunteer to add information to WikiTree. Begin with tags for your own profile. Tags are surnames, locations, concepts, etc. in which you're interested.
When you volunteer, one of our Greeters will confirm your membership. Then you'll be able to add to the tree!
We're really glad you're here!
