While Helen Nimmo, was going to birthday parties
in Brooklyn, her nine Queensland cousins were posing for a photo with their
father, Jack Nimmo, and their mother, Jane Lawson.

Since I was a small child, my mother told me that I had cousins in Australia. Seeing is believing. Again, thank you Jeanette.

Hi! I'm a Nimmo cousin from Australia. I have yet to enquire as to which of those handsome Nimmo men is my Great-grandfather, but I will find out. My uncle just posted this letting us know that John snr and Jane were our Great-great-grandparents....my uncle is a Nimmo, my mother was a Nimmo, and one of those guys has to be my Grandfather's dad. Pretty exciting!

Hello Judy,
It is so nice to hear from a cousin in Australia. It has been so exciting to connect with family so far away. I do hope you discover which son of John Nimmo and Jane Lawson is your great-grandfather. Happy hunting.
Cathy
