After the suggestion of Matthew Flinders, the fifth continent to be discovered was named Australia. The eastern coast came to be named New South Wales, and must of had some folks from Wales during this part history. I have been unable to identify the first with the surname JONES, and ask if there is anyone out there in genealogy land who might know, please network. I would guess that there are a few folks with the surname JONES residing down under.
This theme is one of geography, Australia...(g.)...anyone there?
