Hello. A shot in the dark??? I am looking for information re John Francis Pimm who came to Australia from Britain in the early 1880s. He had a daughter Elizabeth Catherine Pimm (born 1871 in Sydney) who married my grandfather William Edward Savin (s). They lived at Fivedock, Sydney. I think he was a stonemason by trade. If there is any connection I would love to hear from you.
Regards,
