Quin Family History

We are beginning to search our Quin Family history. Our branch of the Quins began in Australia around 1890 when Charles Hasledon Quin emigrated to Melbourne, transferring from the London office to the Melbourne office of John Sanderson Shipping Agents. He was closely followed by Annie Tijou (mother's maiden name Conroy). My grandfather is supposed to have lived in Coldharbour Lane in London and he had apparently been educated in the Channel Islands. We understand that we are related to Hydes. Earlier our ancestry is supposed to be connected to the Earls of Dunraven at Adare Manor in Ireland who were all 'Wyndham Quins'. Any help ypou can give us would be very welcome.
