Hi, and welcome to a work in progress. The information contained at this site is intended to be a begining, and by no means an end. I am a desendant of George Frederick Russell, b. 1827 Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. In about 1853 he arrived in Australia and our branch of the Russell line began. I would dearly love anyone, either here in Australia or abroad to contact me if they too belong to this family with a view to sharing information and expanding our tree's. Good luck and all the best.
