Father -- Dave (David Knight) (Help), 18:56:22 06/23/10 Wed (NoHost/91.110.30.111)
Would like to find out if David Knight born apprx 1924+ and came from Cobar N.S.W.is indeed my biological father and I have half brother and sister still living?
David Knight had a son called David and a daughter called Barbie and was a grazier having sheep and cattle I believe. Apparently I was the result of an affair my mother Marjory Joyce Boucher (Turner)had with Dave Knight.Because he was a strict catholic I was bought up as Cheryl Elizabeth Boucher and was born in Cobar hospital on 18th July 1955.I was later sent to my grandparents aged 14 months where I remained until 14 years of age.My grandparents were Edward Henry and Elizabeth Turner from Farm 933 Couch Road Griffith N.S.W. Australia.
Anyone who may be able to shed some light on this would be much appreciated.Thankyou in anticipation..

Cheryl Lowe (Boucher)(Knight)???
England

FREE RESEARCH IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA -- Heather Hobbis, 18:16:28 09/26/04 Sun (NoHost/61.68.40.170)
Hello All,
I'm in South Australia and for about 7 years now I have been doing free research for anyone who wants information about ancestors who came here around the 1800's.

Please feel free to contact me at my home email address if there is something I can do for you. I try to get to the library one day a week.

It would help if you could provide details such as person's Christian name/s, surname, family names, anything else you can think of.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards
Heather

Ada Nellie WARD/HOOK/SHEED & Albert SHEED -- Julian Baker, 16:57:36 02/21/12 Tue (parent-proxy-msd5-nat.zqwdrqsz.com/20.133.0.13)
I have been trying to research the lives of Ada Nellie SHEED and Albert Edward SHEED who came to Australia with their parents in 1912. Their father, Albert Edward SHEED, had served with the Royal Navy for 24 years and joined the Royal Australian Navy for a further 10 years. The family settled in Williamstown, Victoria and Rose Bay, Sydney NSW.
The family returned to Portsmouth, England in 1921 but their children, Ada and Albert remained.
I know that Ada married Walter John HOOK in 1923 near Sydney. The couple seem to have been estranged as Ada returned to Melbourne as early as 1930, where she later married Reginald Herbert WARD. From passenger records I believe they had at least one daughter, Maisie J. WARD who was born in 1930. From electoral rolls I believe Ada and Reginald were still alive in 1980, living in the Melbourne area.
Albert SHEED married Helen SOADY in Brisbane, Queensland in 1932 and had at least one daughter Helin Emily SOADY in 1933. I know Albert died in 1964.

I have no idea if either Ada HOOK/WARD or Albert SHEED had other children in their lifetimes.
Would be very grateful if anyone can help please ?

She married Heinrich Christoph Bruggemann (he was born 9/12/1817, Celle in Hannover, Germany and joined the Hoffnungsthal congregation in 1843) the date of the marriage is unknown. there were 3 children; Johann August, born 13/1/1851 at rowland flat. baptized 9/2/1851 (probably known by second name) Elisabeth Maria born 5/8/1853, rowland flat. baptized 21/8/1853 and Carl Heinrich (probably known as Heinrich) born 27/6/1855 at rowland flat. baptized 15/7/1855. in 1860 the family left Hoffnungsthal for black springs. mr Bruggemann was a "shoemaker" there was one other child born after this move but i have no record and am unable to locate a record.
On 7 July 1864 "Johanna Emilie Wilhelmine Bruggeman" - widow(known as Wilhelmine) 33 years maiden name Torbitzki, married Johann Menzel, 38, batchelor son of Samuel & Susanna Menzel nee Tischler. Witnesses were Ludwig Semmler and Friedrich Menzel.
One of the children from this marriage was Mathilda Menzel, born Lyndoch S.A in 1867/8. (there were 2 daughters from this marriage but Mathilda was the younger daughter) Mathilda Menzel later married Simon Frank GABRIEL (widower) on 16/2/1892 in Mildura. Victoria. Simon Gabriel arrived in Australia roughly 1885-1887 on the ship Serapis. He was born in Mauritius, but where he came from is not known, but he was married with 3 children prior to marrying Mathilda. his first wife, name unknown died on 13/5/1890. They had 3 children; Alice Maud Mary born 1879. Grace Florence Ann born 1881 and Alfred Ernest born 1885. Simon had 2 stays in the Adelaide Hospital, one in 1887 and another in 1895. I am unable to find any records for the first wife or the 3 children in australian records, either I'm not looking in the right places or they didn't come to Australi, so where are they?
Any leads on any of these people named would be gratefully recieved, no matter how minor a detail it is.

Boyden family -- Ailsa Boyden (Seeking relations), 23:04:24 06/27/11 Mon (CPE-124-185-206-50.lns6.cha.bigpond.net.au/124.185.206.50)
It would be nice to establish a relationship between my Boyden family and other Boyden families. Boyden is not a common surname. I note that Flight Lieutenant Reginald (Rex) Boyden who was one of the two pilot killed in the Stinson plane crash on the Lamington Plateau in Qld in 1937 was best man in 1920 at the wedding of Nicholas Lancelot Boyden (son of Francis Ernest Boyden late of Mildura and later of Mosman, NSW). Nicholas Lancelot Boyden, orchadist, The Summit, Stanthorpe, was listed as a witness at the Coroner's inquiry into the deaths following the Stinson crash. My husband's Uncle Robert William Boyden (born in the late 1800s) also farmed on the Granite Belt in Qld and had two 'maiden' aunts living in Toowwoomba (one is believed to have been named Daisy Boyden). Robert (Bob) William Boyden's brother John Joseph Boyden was my father-in-law. His dad died before he was born and his widow remarried. Times were hard and the family lost contact with the deceased dad's family.

Can anyone 'out there' add to this story?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Our 2nd greatgrandparents John and Ann Cooper Buckle emigrated from England to Ballarat, Australia where John was a master tailor and manufactured "colonial cloth." His brother, Joseph Buckle was also a tailor and emigrated to Australia. I do not know whether this Joseph was the Reverend Joseph Buckle who was a Primitive Methodist minister in Maryborough. John and Ann Cooper Buckle re-emigrated to Salt Lake City, Utah, evidently after converting to the Mormon church. Any information about this family would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

CROTTY FAMILY HISTORY -- Kevin Woods, 12:05:48 02/03/09 Tue (c58-107-136-18.rivrw8.nsw.optusnet.com.au/58.107.136.18)
Thomas Crotty was born 4 Dec 1842, Maitland, NSW. He married Mary Ann Jane Bratten born 31 May 1847. During 1880 Thomas Crotty moved to the Hallsville area in those days Moore Creek, lower end near Attunga. In 1880 Thomas Crotty built Crotty's Hotel and it still stands today. It was taken over in 1897. He moved to Uralla in about 1886. He died at Uralla 14 Oct 1914 and his obituary was published in the Uralla Times: "Death of Thomas Crotty. One of Uralla's best known and most respected residents passed over the Great Divide at a few minutes past nine o'clock on Wednesday morning last in the person of Thomas Crotty. Born at Maitland in 1843 he had passed the allotted span of three score years and ten by a little over a year. About 50 years ago the late Mr. Crotty married and his life partner passed away to rest in the old cemetery. Of the union there were six sons and four daughters. The daughters are Mrs Russ of Tamworth; Mrs A Gillis of Sydney; Mrs V. McNamarra of Cobar. The sons are Thomas of Queensland, whose exact whereabouts are just not known; Arthur of Tingha; Walter and William of Uralla; Ernest of Leura. The second son and second daughter passed away and were buried in the cemetery at Broome in the North West of Western Australia. A particular feature in connection with the deaths is that both were returning home (though a five years interval divided the trips) when death claimed them in the same district. In his young days, Mr. Crotty was engaged as a teamster between Newcastle and Inverell and passed through Uralla when there was but one house in it and helped to deliver the first telegraph wire on its northern line. Later he left the roads and followed farming at Somerton and later took the Somerton Hotel. He left the Hotel to go farming again at Moore Creek and from Moore Creek moved to Uralla about 28 years ago taking over the old Bellevue Hotel which he kept for about eight years and from then onwards chiefly followed mining pursuits, and up to the last had great faith in the Kingscott mines. He was an excellent raconteur, and frequently said he spun tops with the late Mr. Edmond Lonsdale before they were old enough to go to school and that he believed that he knew the member for the District longer than any man living in the electorate. He also remembered the wreck of the Dunbar well.....He looked forward to his last journey with the quiet confidence of a man who had lived a good life and had nothing to fear." Family tradition records that when he was near death he said good-bye to each in turn, then collectively, "Well goodbye all" Then he suddenly sat upright and looking towards the end of the bed said loudly, "I'm coming, my girl. I'm coming" laid back on his pillow, closed his eyes and was gone. He once had an encounter with the bushranger "Thunderbolt". He "stuck them up" when they were travelling from Tamworth to Uralla and demanded any money and valuables. He searched Tom Crotty but forebore to touch his wife saying "I never molest women". Thunderbolt is now interred in the Uralla cemetery.

Hello there, I have in my possession a full history of BD&M of the BRYDONS going back to John Cowan Brydon (My Great Grand Father). He was born in Lanarkshire, Scotland on 5th Feb. 1849. He came out to Glen Innes NSW ( when is a mystery to me), married Mary Mc Kenzie Penman at Glen Innes. She was from Rosewood Scotland & he Died 26 Sept. 1886.
My records show that his father was William & His mother was Margaret. They are all buried in the Glen Innes Cemetery.

What I am trying to find out is :
How & when did he get to Australia?
How & when did his mum & dad get to Australia?
Did he have brothers and sisters & if so where are they?

Can anyone help? At this stage,I do not want to go further back into history than William and Margaret Brydon

I have been researching the Marsden family. In particular Alfred Marsden born abt 1897 possibly in the Lismore, N.S.W.
area. He was adopted by the Dean family but chose to use the name of Marsden. On his marriage certificate he listed his father as Jon Laurence Marsden. I have seen one instance of his middle name listed as Marzol. I was curious to know where this came from? Was this his mother's maiden name?
Thanks for any help.

Marzol family -- Dee, 19:34:10 01/04/03 Sat (1Cust130.tnt2.cbr2.da.uu.net/63.60.40.130)
Is anyone researching Joseph Marzol born in Switzerland in 1818. He immigrated on the "Daniel Rose" arriving in Sydney in 1855.

Also does anyone know the whereabouts of Jean Ritchie formerly of Foster NSW, who was researching the Marzols in the 1980's ?
Many thanks,
Dee

Would like to get in contact with anyone with information on the decendants of William Henry Bacchus & Harriett Ann Stirling who both arrived in Adeladie, South Australia from England in 1838.

I also have information to share with but need more information to help fill in a few gaps.

Look forward to hearing from anyone.

Hello,

I am looking for information on two women, Herda Anne Dorothea Schnell and Sybil Ross. They both emigrated from England to Australia in 1953.

Herda was 52 when she arrived in Sydney and was a dietician but worked as a chiropodist (i know i didn't spell that right) in Melbourne well into the the 1970's.

Sybil Ross was Australian. She was 29 when she returned to Australia and the ships records clearly state that she had a infant boy with her.

Any information on these two will be greatly appreciated. I know that this is no technically a finding living relatives website but I have to try just the same. My mom passed away a week ago and I have no other family at all.

While I'm here I might as well ask if anyone knows a Peter Robinson (would have been born 1947-1950, England)?

Thanks

Leonard Harry Boyce 1898-? -- Roy Mace, 03:55:23 04/23/08 Wed (5ac68671.bb.sky.com/90.198.134.113)
L H Boyce was born in Suffolk, England in 1898. He served in the First World War (Royal Horse Artillery) and emigrated to Australia on the Baradine (march 9 1822). Family legend has it that he tried farming and taxi driving.
I do not know when he died, or whether he had a family before he died. (I was born in 1946, and have no memory of letters from him to his family in England.)
My dad used to talk about his brother Leonard, but that was mostly before he left for Australia.
He may have visited his cousin Herbert Reginald Boyce, who emigrated earlier and enlisted in Australia. H R Boyce got shipped off to France, got shot, got married in England and returned to Australia with his bride.
H R Boyce was living with his wife Sarah in Balaclava/Balaklava on 16/11/1922 when he received his medals.
Any help would be gratefully received.

Looking for Stewarts in Colac, Victoria -- Lucy Stewart, 19:57:28 03/27/08 Thu (gate.london.bdp.co.uk/195.171.27.17)
Hi
I am trying to get back in contact with some relatives in Colac, Victoria.
My Great Great Grandfather James Stewart emigrated to Australia approx 1923 from County Antrim, Ireland. He already had a son (my Grandfather) Samuel Stewart in Ireland (Samuel's mother died in childbirth) and went on to remarry in Australia and have a son Jack Stewart.
James Stewart died on the 19th July 1951 and is buried in Colac Cemetary. I have no info on his wife at all.

To my knowledge his son Jack had two children - Graham and Heather.

Prior to her death in 2006 my Grandmother was in contact with Jack but since then we have lost touch and would love to renew the connection.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Lucy

I am looking for any information in regard to William ALDRICK who arrived in Port Jackson on the "John and Lucy" in 1857 and any of his descendants. He married Naomi Isabella Musto and they had 4 children Shadrach (died at 2 years of age) Frederick (my grandfather) and Willi Ernest. These last 2 went to WA.
I am also researching the McNeill family in SA. I believe they arrived on the "North" around 1867. They came from Lanarkshire. They arrived with one child Jane as far as I know, but then had John Bridget Thomas Archibald Malcolm and my grandmother Ann Ellen - all born at Millicent. Their mothers name was Jane Giles McBride. Would welcome any information on these two families.

b1884. They had 11 children, one being Gladys Yeo b 1909 married Robert Stevens.I do have some information about Yeo's in Coonamble. I came across this because I am researching my Gt Gt aunt Uncle Rev James Ingram, who was President of Trinty College Oxford. He was a famous Anglo-Saxon scholar, (there is more about him on the net)He wrote a will in 1845 in which he names my Gt Gt aunt as living in Bathurst NSW and married to James Burfitt. Small world! I would be pleased to send you more information. Jill

looking for descendants & ancestors of William Mabbett b 1812 South HAckney, London m 1835 Kensington, London to Nancy Watts (daughter of Francis Watts & Mary Stokes born 1813 Lambeth). William's parents are believed to have been James Mabbett born 1785, Ludgate, London and a woman named Mary.

William & Nancy's children were: - Francis William 1836, Mary Elizabeth 1838, Sarah Maria 1840, Frederick Jesse 1841, Walter Henry 1842, Elizabeth Watts 1845, James Samuel 1847, Albert Edward 1850, William Alfred 1853, and Caroline Louisa 1855.

Some born in England, some in South Australia. At least one son moved to Victoria & his descendants are spread between both states. Looking in particular for the Victorian connections to this family

Hilda June Gough -- Robyn, 14:48:16 08/31/07 Fri (61-69-3-65.netspeed.com.au/61.69.3.65)
Looking for Hilda June Gough nee Mclachlan and her family. Hilda married my father Arthur Charles Gough in 1989 at Badgerys Creek, NSW. Children were Penny (abt 24 years now), Alison (abt 16 years now), there was another sister April who was deceased in 1992.

These children are my step-sisters. I have been looking for my father and or his family for abt 20 years. I have only just found the names of my father's second family.

Details:
My father's name was Arthur Charles Gough b 22 Oct 1921 Goulburn, NSW d04 Feb 1992 in Mt Druitt, Hospital, NSW. Arthur & June's last known address was Lot 4 Gardiner Road, Badgery's Creek NSW.

My Grandparents were:
Arthur George Gough b1894, Brisbane, Qld d1947 Granville, NSW married Ivy Evelyn Alice Crowne b1904, Braidwood, NSW in 1921 Goulburn, NSW.

My Great Grandparents were:
Charles Edward Gough b1852 Windsor, NSW d1921 Newtown, NSW married Elizabeth Ann Griffiths in 1873 Wesleyan, Windsor, NSW.

Does anyone have any idea where the family went to after 1992? I do not know if they are aware of my existence or if they wish to. But I hope we can at least contact each other.

Or if anyone knows of any family members of my Grandparents or Great Grandparets please contact me.

Regards
Robyn

CEELY James -- Jenny Hodges, 01:17:40 08/30/07 Thu (dsl-203-33-162-200.NSW.netspace.net.au/203.33.162.200)
Seeking information on James CEELY and Isabella GARDENER. James was born at Kent, England and arrived in Australia in 1853. He headed to the goldfields around Castlemain, Taradale, California Gully etc.
He later moved to Narrandera NSW where he died in 1895.
Apparently James left a family behind in England.
Any help or contact with descendants would be great.
