ARGUS Bulletin Board and Forums
We now have our own Bulletin Board (electronic
notice board) where users can post questions and seek
information on members of the Argus family and other users can post
replies.
This facility will enable you to post questions to help you with
your research and to also share information by providing answers to other's posts. This
can be a very valuable tool for Argus family members to share
information and assist others in their genealogy research.
The Board is divided into specific Forums to
focus posts and discussions.
There is also a forum for people researching surnames that are
associated with the Argus name.
In the Administration Forum there is a
Quick Start Guide to assist those

Are you related to the Argus family?
|
If you live in Australia or New Zealand and your surname
is ARGUS, or you are a descendant of someone whose name is
Argus, then you are most likely to have descended from either
of the brothers Thomas Argus or John Argus.
Thomas and John Argus and their families migrated to
Australia in the 1840's from Cornwall in England and
established the family in Australia with Ernest Edward Argus,
a grandson of Thomas, moving to
New Zealand
in 1901 and establishing the
New Zealand
branch of the family tree.
This web site has been established to facilitate the
interchange and sharing of family historical information.
You are welcome to suggest information that could be made
available on this site for sharing with others.
