The Back family of Co Kent, England and thence to Australia.

The last button is for a page on the research of a Back family of Dover & Aldington, Kent, with full detail. There is a good chance this family is related to my own Back's but at this stage the missing link is proving elusive. The "Extended Family" chart also contains several other Back families who were in the same area and who also may or may not be related.
