Welcome to the TOWNSEND family in Australia! TOWNSEND was my mother's maiden name - hence my interest in this research. This on-going project is a compilation from various indexes for births, deaths, marriages, etc. throughout Australia. Only those known to be no longer alive are included on this website. Please contact me if you are able to provide any extra details or corrections. My intention is for this website to grow to be a creditable resource for anyone with a TOWNSEND in their tree.
