Dear Janette,

I am sorry for being rather unresponsive to your various messages - I have quite a bit on at present. Edward's date of death has been changed, as requested.

You should find a request to collaborate on our family tree will follow shortly. If you accept, I believe it will give you access to edit things you want to change.

By way of background, the Singleton family is enormous, particularly in the Hunter and north west regions of NSW, and includes many of the surnamesnames that are commoin in those areas, such as Bellamy, Honnery, Turnbull and many others, as the early arrivals intermarried.

The Singleton family descend from William Singleton, who arrived on the Pitt as a convict in 1792, with his wife Hannah and two infant boys, Benjamin and Joseph, who accompanied William free.

One of the Singleton descendants documented a vast amount of research, well before the internet, and gave a copy to a younger family member, who passed the documents on to my wife, Sue. Unfortunately this person has since had a stroke and can't remember who he got the material from. Sue, with some assistance from myself, put this large quantity of data into Geni, because she is a Singleton descendant. We cannot vouch for the data on the original document (although most of it has proved pretty good), and have probably contributed some data entry errors (most common is to forget to mark as deceased, most of which have by now been corrected, and typos with dates).

We hope you collaborate and enjoy exploring (and correcting) the family tree. I will send a brief (probably token answer to you other messages, in the hope that you will fix the issues you have identified.,

Best regards, Chris Dale
