Row..Coldwell..Sterel Family History

The Ancestors from The Row and Coldwell Family,came from England and Ireland during the mid and latter part of the 19th century. Settling in Portland and Shepparton Victoria Australia.

Research into The Benson & Welman family is ongoing. The Benson and Welman Families started when both Lt Benson & Captain Welman of the 57th Regiment were garrisoned in Sydney and Tasmania, during the 1820's and 1830's. The descendants of the Benson Family settled in the Northeast of Victoria. Most of Harvey Welman descendants settled in Tasmania, although a number of his descendents returned to England. Further research is currently in progress.

I would be happy to hear from any one who may be connected, or can provide any information on the Benson/Welman families

The Sterel family came from Holland to Australia in 1954
