hello Gloria,
I was surprised to hear from you as I had forgotten that I had posted a query so long ago.
Yes, we do share the same famliy tree. I am the great grand daughter of Henry John Alford who was the brother of your William.
I do have some knowledge of William's extended family who can be found in India, Perth Australia, New Zealand and the UK but would love to add some more to my records.
I am willing to share information about my great great grandparents John and Phoebe Alford (parents of Henry and William) who came from England to Victoria Australia in 1855.
I look forward to hearing from you again
Joan Thom
