Apart from the choice of case and number of words (Delarue, De La Rue and de la Rue are all common), there are a number of alternatives that make life even more difficult. Some of these we know are related, others are not certain: De La Rew, De La Roux, De La Reu and more. Then there is the question of the relationship to La Rue and Rue. You can read a bit about the Australian De La Rue families on the <a title="De La Rue genealogy" href="http://delarue.net/blog/stuff/de-la-rue/" rel="nofollow">genealogy page</a> on this site. As my family came out to Australia via England, I assume that the capitalised spelling that we use is an Anglicisation. One branch of my family deliberately adopted the single-word spelling about three or four generations ago as a further simplification. The other families, having come out directly from France or the Channel Islands, tend to have retained the original lower case for the "de la". - Keith. Sarah -

Richard Webbe has introduced me to you and now I find that you and I have some scarily common interests; I too rode a Motor Cycle through the north of Australia (Yamaha 350b) in late '79 (still ride VTR1000 today), enjoy time in Singapore and KL speaking at conferences when I can, long car trips, and others I wont bore you with. At Richard's request, and now to satisfy my curiousity, I would enjoy catching up for a coffee in sunny Melbourne soon. I will email you. Garry Gosling Networks are funny things.
