I hope you haven't received an unfinished part of this, my machine went haywire. I am aware of the line of Twisses stemming from Henry, {I am one of them} in Australia but are there other lines and are they related? A Samuel Twiss drove the first train to run in NSW and he and his brother are buried in Rookwood Cemetery, there is a Mount Twiss at Linden in the Blue Mountains, any ideas who that may have been named after. Did the fellow who came as a Marine with the First Fleet return to Australia and did he father the first child born in the colony,a girl named ...... Green? There is also some early history of Twiss in WA. I am new to this and am trying to piece together all the bits and pieces. As an aside, I met an Admiral, Sir Frank Twiss who pulled the last of the British Fleet from Singapore and last I heard he was Usher of the Black Rod in the House of Lords. Hope there might be some answers out there.
