Hi, my name is Tara Derschow, I am 33 and have just started trying to look up my family tree and would love to find out more about my great grandfather. I am from Western Australia I might also add. My grandfather was born a McAlinden but was adopted out and took the Crick family name. He also found out he had a sister from England that moved to Australia whom he never met. He wife’s name was Daphne Isobelle Parkinson and his children are Shirley Crick (my grandmother who married Les Craine my grandfather, but now goes by the name Houston) and Gary Crick. My great grandfather’s name is Harry Bell McAlinden. If you had any information on where to go from there I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you Kindly, Tara
