Message: I find your site fascinating as I am interested in researching my own family tree. I have my great grandfather, Alfred Neal's death certificate which lists his place of birth as Dorking, Surrey, England. It names his father as John Neal (surgeon) and mother Ann Hooker. He would have been born in 1861. According to family tradition, Alfred left England with a brother and travelled to Canada where he worked on the construction of a cathedral. One version then has the brothers working on the Panama Canal, while another has them intending to but because of the prevelance of malaria and other diseases decided to come to Australia instead. His brother was killed at Mt Garnet in North Queensland and Alfred went on to Winton in central Queensland where he became the first resident builder and was the town's prominent builder until his retirement and death in 1938. Prior to his arrival in Winton, buildings were transported to the town from Charters Towers. He not only built the first house to be constructed in Winton, but also build the home for the Riley family. It is historically accepted that the first performance of Waltzing Matilda took place in this house. Banjo Patterson was engaged to Sarah?Riley and was in Winton visiting her family when he penned the song. I note similarities in your research - Ann Hooker, Alfred Neal family in Dorking. I would be interested in hearing from you if you feel that there is a connection.
