Hi Chris It is great to finally find someone in Australia looking at the Peebles family. My father, Reginald Peebles b17 May 1934, descends from Robert Peebles(b1832-d1894). He was one of 2 brothers that I know of(James b1828-d1869 being the other) They originated from Fifeshire, Scotland and emmigrated to VanDiemens Land on the 'Commodore Perry' on a sponsored farming program(I believe) Before this I have failed to connect them to anyone or anywhere in their home land. I don't know if we are related but I have a complete tree done after they arrived here. It feels funny writing to my own name!! My maiden name was Chris(tine) Peebles.
Please contact me if we can share info. Chris
