Hi there
my Carnegies lived in the Ballarat area, my GG grandfather was David
Carnegie who married Isabella Barron, they went to NZ [we've never worked
out why or to who they went to] and my great grandmother - Isabella Carnegie
was born in Dunedin, they returned to Australia, and never returned to NZ.
David's father was David and his mother was Isabella Hendrix, they were from
Montrose in Scotland.
not sure if this ties in with you

I am hoping to find someone who knows about the Carnegie family that lived
in Ballarat, Australia. The head of the family was David Carnegie and he
was married to one Catherine Hayward McCubbin. Their son - James Claude
Carnegie (known as Claude) is my great Grandfather, however as he ran
away from home very little is known about his family history. Claude
settled in New Zealand.
I understand Claude may have also had a couple of sisters.
