 REQUESTS:

 

BOURKE/WEST FAMILY REUNION

The descendants of Charles Richard Bourke  (1867-1949)and Alice Maude Bourke (nee West) (1885- 956) who settled in Canberra in about 1913 have been getting together over the past 20 years.

 

The next reunion is on  March 2nd 2013  from 11am-8pm, Corroboree Park in Ainslie, Canberra (byo food/drink)

 

We would also like to invite any other relatives from the West, Ochs or Power families to join us on the day to meet other descendants and find out about the history of our families in this region.

 

Please contact Dianne 0427 618 831 czeh@netspeed.com.au

or Christine: 0438 246 849 clangley@bigpond.net.au for further details.

 

Alice Maude West was the youngest daughter of William Henry West (1847-1929) and Annie Catherine West (nee Ochs/Oaks) (1850-1937) of Adaminaby. Annie was of German ancestry and her parents were Louis Ochs and Walberga Ochs who arrived in 1855 and ended up near Dairyman's Plains near Cooma.

 

William Henry West owned the Commercial Hotel in Old Adaminaby.

 

He was the eldest son of Henry West (circa 1812-1902) and Jane West (nee Power) (1828-1913) who had the "Gabramatta" selection in the late 1890's near the Gulf Plain (downstream from Tantangera Dam). Henry was a convict from Middlesex, while Jane was the daughter of Thomas (1813-1870) and Isabella Power (nee Hastie/Heasty) who lived for a time at Little Tinderry, and later in life at Bolairo. After Thomas died, Isabella married Christopher Eccles in 1875.

 

Charles Richard Bourke was the son of Peter Bourke (1844-1896) and Jane Dormond who lived in Coburg Victoria. Peter Bourke arrived from Tipperary in 1864 while Jane was born in Dundee Scotland.

Subject: Corrections to your site

I have only just registered to use this site.

I have already found a number of errors concerning my grandparents and great grandparents.

What do I have to do to get them corrected?

Sincerely,  Brett Dawson

Hi Brett,

Please send any additional or correctional information to me and I will update our database accordingly.

Regards,  Ian

Dear Ian,

 

OK, here we go. This is just a start. I haven't had time to comb through everything yet. Just so you can situate me, I should tell you that I am a descendant of the original Vallance family (Hugh & Margaret) who arrived in Sydney on the barque Trinidad in 1841. My grandmother was Irene McLeay Vallance (who married Albury Randolph Dawson), and here are a few facts gleaned from the documents I possess:

 

(1) She was born at Drumclog Station (later renamed Hillview) near Murrumbateman on 15th November 1892 (and not in 1896 as the site says); the BDM Index number is correct;

 

(2) She was married on 27th December 1915 (and not 1916);

 

(3) Her husband, my paternal grandfather Albury Randolph Dawson, was born in Millthorpe, not Blayney; I can provide the names and DOB of their five children (including my father) if you wish, but they probably won't interest you as the family went to live in Dunedoo after my grandparents were married, and in 1939 they all moved to Hurstville;

 

(4) Her mother (= my great grandmother), Frances Sophia Hilder (that is the order of first names on her birth certificate) was born on 20th February 1870, not on 11th, witness her birth certificate;

 

(5) My great grandfather Hugh Vallance (1862-1934) sired nine children, not ten; from among the ten children listed on your site, you should delete "Roland", as his full name was George Roland, and he is the same person as the third son, who died at the age of 14 in 1914 from a tetanus infection;

 

(6) Finally, on the Dawson side, my great grandmother's name was Sophy Ann Bowd (not "Sophia").

 

We'll leave it there for the moment, I think. I shall doubtless have more on the Vallances when I have delved a bit more, and also on the Franklins (I share a common ancestor with Miles Franklin, but then, who doesn't?) Keep up the good work, your site has been invaluable to me and correcting a few things is for me a way to thank you; there is no criticism implied.

 

Sincerely,  Brett DAWSON

Hi Brett,

Or should I say Bonjour?

Merci for the information, the database will be updated later today.  The database is what it is because folks like you have taken the time to contribute and/or correct the information we have.

Regards,  Ian

Cooma War Trophy

Dear sir,

 

The City of Liverpool sub-Branch of The RSL is seeking information on the WW1 German Field Gun that is in the possession of Liverpool city Council. The War Trophy in question is number 13379 was issued to the Cooma people in May 1921 for the displaying of it in recognition of Cooma’s contribution to WW1. This war trophy has been in the possession of Liverpool City Council circa 1965. Why Liverpool has it is unknown therefore I seek your help in establishing as to why, how and when it came into the possession of Liverpool. Maybe this information can be obtained from yourself and the local Historical organisation to assist the  City of Liverpool sub-Branch of The RSL.

 

Should you require further details on this matter please feel free to contact the City of Liverpool sub-Branch of The RSL 171 George St Liverpool 2170. My contact details are (m) 0417451813 or email gjlucas@bigpond.net.au

OCHS

From: Fiona Robinson
Sent: Wednesday, 23 January 2013 6:52 AM
Subject: RE:
 

Hi Ian

 

Have been going great guns with the family history stuff..

 

Do you recall putting up Annie Oaks? Under Henry west line.

 

Well our conclusive research shows it is Ochs (we saw so many versions but this is what it was - it may have been anglicised later to Oaks). James as listed was not her father, but brother. Her father was Ludwig (Louis) Ochs and Mother Walburga Ochs (they died at Dairyman's plains).

 

We have Ludwig's death cert and a intestate file and the original shipping records from when they came from Germany.

  

Also since you have changed the files I noticed when you click on some names it defaults top of page instead of going to the name... not sure what the error is there.

 

Regards,  Fiona

Thank you Fiona,

Can you please tell me the dates of Ludwig and Walburga's death?   Can you also tell me which page you encountered the problems you describe and which names?

Regards,  Ian

Hi Ian

I clicked on a number  like Isabella West is one I recall for sure.

 

We cant find Walburga's death.. anywhere or anything about her.

 

On Ludwig the info is

 

Louis Ochs

27th July 1875 death at Cooma. 

Father was Anton Ochs

Mother was Catherine Keiffer

 

So we have his death cert and his intestate papers. We have found some info like the following.

 

We know there were 12 children. 9 of who died infancy. Annie Mary (born Anna Maria), James and a Joseph were the 3 who lived.

 

So I guess the little known Ochs family can be listed now too and hopefully it will build from there if anything.

 

I have also attached Annie Mary's Obit (her grave and she is listed as Annie Catherine West - we are yet to figure that out). Its definitely the same woman as the intestate papers prove that.

there is another page which states his info is in the Stuttgart State archive

Ochs, Ludwig

Neckarsulm, Stadt, HN

1855

Australia

Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart (HStAS)

 

i noticed on NSWBDM Ludwig is also called Louis and Lewis  which could make searching tricky

 

Walberga is also Wallburge 

 

Ochs has so many variants!!

 

I found the birth of CAROLINA in 1859 daughter of LUDWIG and WALLBURGE at CAMDEN,  I found her death the following year 1860 same spellings,  so you know there was Annie 1850, Joseph b 1854, Carolina b 1859 d 1860, James b 1861.    Couldn’t find Wallberga's death

Thanks Fiona,

Subject: Carolyn Joan Richards nee Povey.

Dear Ian, 

Just letting you know, if you wish to update the records. Carolyn Joan Richards nee Povey passed away last Wednesday 16th, Jan. 2013. Carolyn was the daughter of William Percival Povey. who incidentally is still alive, but very frail and has Alzimhers. Poor man, he has buried all three of his children. Carolyn had an older sister, whose name I can't remember. However she was 10 months old when she died, and Carolyn was born 10 months after her death. There was also a younger brother named Warren. He died 9th April 1998. Carolyn has three living adult children, two boys and one girl. I had a long phone conversation this morning with Michael Povey.

[ contributor of the headstone photos ] Michael, Carolyn and I would never have met one another if it wasn't for the Monaro Pioneers web site. In June last year we met up on the Gold Coast. Had a ball at the theme parks by day and wined and dined at night while talking Povey none stop for a week. Carolyn knew her days were numbered then so we made every second count. We three have you to thank for it all. If it wasn't for your dedication to the site, it would not be the success that it is.

Thank You so much. I'm sure this story is not an osolated one and many many other families have been able to unite in the same way.

Once Again. Thank You.  Johanna

Thank you Johanna, we are delighted to have been of help.

Hi Ian – I am not sure if I am doing this right, but here goes  - some  time ago I was able to  click onto my family ancestors family tree – clicking on “M” for Macdonald and having the whole ancestors of Archibald Macdonald, a Monaro pioneer, set out before me.   Obviously there has been some change in the site with instruction to contact you with any enquiries.  

 

Can you help me to get back onto the information that I need – I am doing my family history thru Ancestry and want to research further into   Hugh Lyndsay Sinclair from Temora and his marriage and siblings  to  Mary MacDonald.

 

Their son Duncan married his cousin Catherine Macdonald and they are my maternal grandparents

 

Thank you and hoping for your assistance – Margaret Martin 

Hi Catherine,

The information is still available but in a different form now.  Instead of the old static descendant reports you used to see now you can access the MP Database directly and see up to date descendant listings at any time.  You will need to register for a user id though.  This is a simple process and once registered you can continue with your research in the full knowledge that all the information you see will be the very latest we have available.

Subject: re Henry Hewatt ID 12709

Dear Sir

 

Just been looking at your website and found Henry Hewatt   He is the brother of my great Grandfather

 

His correct name is Henry Hewat  born at Forge Creek  on 4/1/1862 and died in the Warrugal Hospital 14/7/1922 he is buried at Warragul

 

He went to NSW  at a young age and was at Tumbarumba for some years  He did marry Mary Jane Clancy [ previous married name Raynor]  They had 6 children

 

Henry left NSW with Ellen Dissell  nee Wright  and moved to Melbourne They had 4 children She died in the Royal Melbourne Hospital  in 1922 and about that time Henry took ill and the 4 children were placed in orphanages

 

Henry seemed to spell his surname with either 1 or 2 T's  and most of this line of our family use the 2 t's because that is how they were registered at the orphanages

 

I have a lot of information on the family so if you know of any one researching the family  Please pass my email address onto them

WILLIAMS

Subject:

Ian,

 

It has been a while since I have spoken with you.  I am still chasing information on my Grandfather, John Henry Williams and his association with families in the Moruya area.

 

In particular, I would like to get more information on one of the Eden-Monaro pioneers, Thomas Turner, Moruya, 17.10.12. 

 

John Henry Williams was originally fostered out to a family in Ulladulla (Uriah Coller/Sarah Campbell) in 1900 at age 17 years.  In 1905, both Uriah and Sarah passed away. John then made his way to Moruya, where he met his future wife, Marion Fraser Caldwell, the daughter of a local Policeman.

 

John and Marion married in Sydney in 1910.  John unfortunately passed away in 1920 and a copy of his death notice is attached. The notice makes reference to the family name “Turner” which I suspect is a family from Moruya, where he apparently lived for a short time.

 

Are you able to provide any information to me for Thomas Turner?  The database is currently asking me for a username, which I don’t have at the moment. What is the best way to progress this request

 

Peter Young

Hi Peter,

I suggest you go through the login application process to obtain a username and with that you will have access to the Turner information in our database.  This does include some information on John Henry Williams.

Hi Ian,

thanks for not deleting us, I thought you may have because my mother was illegitimate.

 

there are allot of other decendants still living that are on our George Binstadt side and I wasn’t quick enough to print it, We would really like to be back on the main list.

 

We have finally found our family and been accepted, even though  they were quite shocked, so it was really nice to be included, so if you could make us visible again that would be great.

 

I have photos of Olga etc to include in the collection as well and i have some family birth and marriage certs including Hans Hansen.

Hans married Annie Binstadt in Bega  on the 20th November 1883 at the Vicarage of the Anglican Church. His occupation is listed as Fisherman at Taltra and she was a housemaid at Bega. he was born in Kolding Denmark 1854. they both lived together in Bega River he drowned at sea so I’m told and was never found and that is why she remarried.

Hi Linda,

I have attached a report of the Binstadt clan for your use and you're definitely part of that family.  What you see on the Website remains the same as our privacy policy prohibits the display of any details of living persons.

Proposed Change: Watson, Isaac (I105417)

Tree: Eden Monaro Pioneers

Link: http://monaropioneers.com/TNG/getperson.php?personID=I105417&tree=MP

 

Description: Isaac Watson was from Settle, Yorkshire, England and his DOB varies from 1780s (convict records) to early 1790s (census/marriage). He was convicted at the Lancaster Quarter Sessions on 15 January 1821 and was transported on "Mary (2)" which arrived in Sydney on 23 January 1822. On 28 January he was assigned to Messrs. Hassall at Parramatta. On 14 August 1824 he was charged with being absent from his Masters premises all night and being an incorrigible character. His sentence was to receive 100 lashes and be returned to his Masters service.  His Certificate of Freedom was issued at Parramatta on 24 January 1828.  On the 1828 Census he is listed as being a stockman for James Hassall at O'Connell's Plain (near Bathurst). He married Catherine Williams on 22 September 1831, C of E Bathurst.

Catherine was born c.1810 in Cork, Ireland. She was tried at the Old Bailey, London on 15 January 1829 for theft of a man's clothing and was transported on "Sovereign" which arrived in Sydney on 3 August 1829. In April 1831 she was given permission to marry Thomas Connell (at Bathurst) but, for some reason, that does not appear to have eventuated. Isaac Watson was a constable in 1831 so maybe she went for the man in uniform/earning wages, even though he was quite a few years older than her.

On 16 October 1832 Isaac was promoted to Chief Constable at Bathurst, which position he maintained until 15 November 1834. He had also been appointed Bailiff of the Court of Requests on 26 November 1832.

Mary Ann Watson was born at Bathurst in 1833 (NSW BDM V1833683 17).

On 7 February 1835 Isaac was appointed as a Constable at Goulburn.

Most likely death regn. for him is in 1855 Goulburn (NSW BDM V18551077 43A).

Hi Database Team,

                                  My wife asked me to look up her Grand Fathers WW1 records and to see if we could find out what medals he had after the war as the originals were stolen many years ago and a coin dealer said he could replace them for us (copies RSL approved). We had no problem finding him and while reading his children we couldn’t find Jeans dad.

Jean’s dad was born Aubry  Maxwell  in 1928 in Yarraman, Q’ld Twin Brother to Lester Raymond.  I have attached a scanned copy of a Family Reunion brochure with more Information about the Children of  Benjamin Walter (Mac) Thomson and Elsie Isabella Heale.

Hi Folks,

Thank you for the information, that was very helpful.  Aubry Maxwell Thomson is included in our database but as we have no death information for him we assume he is still living and as such no details will be displayed.

Ian,

 

Thank you for the excellent website. I am currently having a “first go” at my family tree, and the work you folk at MP have done has saved me untold time. I would like to make a small number of adjustments/additions to the info relating to my maternal grandparents (MP ID’s: I914 & I915), Clement Joseph & Lillian Tozer (middle name on MP is Irene, should read Eileen). The MP site lists them as having one child, my uncle, who died in infancy, but has no details of my mother. I have attached a spreadsheet & a GEDCOM, so use whichever is easiest for you. For simplicity, I have only included the details that are necessary for the changes…ie, my parents, myself and siblings….all are deceased except me & my brother. Any relevant BDM references etc are in the notes section of the GEDCOM.

 

Sincere thanks and regards,  Tony Annand.

Thank you,

LARGE/LEATHEM

From: Di Murray
Sent: Sunday, 6 January 2013 9:40 AM
Subject: Dr William large

Hi there

 

I've just been looking on the website for the pioneers project which is terrific.   I am undertaking a PhD at Swinburne University at present on the life of Marion Leathem (Large) - daughter of Dr William Large. Marion was my great great grandmother so i also have the benefit of the family information as well as a multitude of birth certificate and research from a number of sources.

 

I have noticed a few mistakes on the family tree for the family - I think a lot of this information originated from Betty Elworthy as the errors are consistent with some of her research, which was amazing but there are a couple of little errors which persist. I have Betty's book, Devon to Down under and met up with her a few years ago early in my research.

 

Marion and Henry Vale  Leathem only had six children. The first child listed,  Grace Leathem was actually the infant daughter of Henry's brother John Ebbs  and his wife Marion Margaret McDonald - she was born 24 June 1867 at what looks like Hockney Place in Sydney.

 

Henry's mother was Ann Leathem nee Vale - not Vaele. She was 42 when she died from Cancer in Sydney.

 

I'll go through all the other details when I have time, but I would be interested if there is any information on the large family which is available as I would love to know more, especially Dr Large or Mary Ann and her schools.

 

There also appears to be another family called Large in the area - i'm wondering if they were connected to Dr Large and if that is hate reason they came to Tumut. Any ideas on this family?   I think they owned the hotel there - there was another hotel/brewing  family called Large in Tasmania - they came from England and I cannot find a connection there but thought I'd mention it.

 

Once I have finished my research I'm happy to pass on any information i have on the family ( Large - Leathem) to the project

 

kind regards,   Di Murray

Hi Di,

Thank you for the information.

Everything we have is already available on our website.

Description: Ernest Alfred Ebzery (B 22/02/1925 and D 30/10/1993) is not listed as one of the Children of William and Gladys. He Married Ilma Joyce O'Donnell in 1954 (NSW BDM Index 6711/1954).

The siblings of Ernest Alfred Ebzery were listed to me through a verbal discussion with my Grand Mother Elma Ebzery (nee O'Donnell) They were listed as follows - Cecil, Ray, Lorrie, Ronnie, Joan, and Melva. The similarities can not be ignored and whilst the NSW BDM Index does not lists any births past 1909 many death index for the siblings note William and Gladys as parents. I am confident that these siblings of Cecil, Raymond, Lawrence, Ronald,Joan and Melva are in fact the brothers and sisters of my Grandfather Ernest Alfred.

I am still obtaining certificates but through out the O'Donnell and Ebzery Family, they sort of dis-associated themselves from Ernest as he was not a man of good character and there were some horrific stories regarding is conduct floating around.

This may have something to do with his Military Career after his deployment and once again i will be obtaining his records to look at what sort of deployment he was involved in.

Just thought I would mention the connection.

If i am incorrect please let me know.

Good Morning Ian,

                              Sorry for the delay in my reply but I have just spent a quiet New Year period in hospital of all places, but back home now catching up on all the emails etc. A Happy 2013 to You and the Monaro Pioneers team.

 

               Thanks for the advice re the entering of images into the MP database and I must apologise for these errors. I will endeavour to follow these guidelines in the future. I have been finding my way without any real knowledge of the database so any suggestions you have are most welcome and I will try to understand the ‘help’ sections a bit better.

 

               I will see if I can edit these mistakes as any data is only as good as what is input.

    

     Does the last point relate to the file names of the images?

 

               I find the new system very good and thank you for setting up the MP database on this system.

 

Regards,   Phillip

Hi Phillip,

Happy new year and I hope all is well with you health wise.

 

I have already edited the images you have added so don't bother trying to do the same.

 

Yes the last point refers to the file name you give your images and as more and more people add their files the chances of naming conflicts will increase.

 

Thanks for your support, your images are a great help.

Hi Phillip,

Thank you for adding your images to the Monaro Pioneers database.    There are a couple of things I would like you to do when adding your images, firstly in the "Title" field could you please use the convention of Surname, given names.  If the photo includes a spouse then the title should be Male surname, given names and female given names nee maiden name.  If the photo also includes others then after the "and"  either given names or given names and surname.

Having the Surname first in the title makes it easier when searching.

Secondly, can you please reduce the file size of your images to no more than 80k to conserve storage space as we do have some constraints.

The more you can make your file names unique, the less chance of a naming conflict.

GIDLEIGH STATION

From: Denise Miller
Sent: Thursday, 3 January 2013 11:05 AM
Subject: Gidleigh Station or Gidley Station

Hi Ian,

I have to start by saying how much I value and look forward to reading the Monaro Pioneers newsletter as it comes out each month. It has been a great source of information about my local area. While my historical connections to the region were short lived (approx. 1841-I854) I am keen to learn more and as I now live in Canberra, I want to take advantage of local resources.

 

My ancestors, William and Mary Clifford (nee Scully) received their Tickets of Leave in August 1840 in Campbelltown. By December 1842 they were both working at Gidleigh Station at Bungendore as this was where their daughter Mary Ann Clifford (1842) was born. Previously a son, John had been born in Campbelltown in 1841. My great great grandfather, William George Clifford was born in Queanbeyan in 1844. Baptism certificates describes William Clifford,  father as a house servant at Gidleigh. Records show that William Clifford died in April 1846  and is buried at the Oaks Burial Ground in Queanbeyan.

 

Mary Scully was a resilient woman and before the end of that year she had married Thomas Connors or O’Connor. They had four children between 1847 and 1854. At some point after the birth of the youngest child Emily, they left the area, and turned up in Toowoomba, Queensland. The first indication of the family’s relocation was the marriage of Mary Ann Clifford to Jonathan Ives in Toowoomba in January, 1860. It does not appear that any of the family returned to the area, but generally made their home on the Darling Downs. Mary Scully died at Stanthorpe, QLD in 1896, while Thomas had predeceased her in 1881.

 

I am seeking information about Gidleigh station at that time (the 1840s and 1850s)  

Many thanks,  Denise Miller (nee Clifford)

Hi Denise,

Perhaps one of our readers can help you?

Regards,  Ian

Thanks Ian,

I have been to the NLA and reviewed station records on microfilm, but would be interested in any other documentation that anyone might know about.

The Clifford's and O'Connor's are now in the MP Database, you may want to "Flesh out" the details.

Monaro Pioneers - Jesse Friend 1817

Ian

 

My name is Don Lloyd. Thank you for giving me access to the Monaro Pioneers database.

 

I am descended from Emma Friend 1819, the sister of Jesse Friend 1817. Both are on the Monaro Pioneers database.

 

I believe that the Jesse Friend 1817 on the Monaro Pioneers database is in fact a composite of 2 Jesse Friends. The Jesse Friend who died at Cooma in 1896 is not the Jesse Friend who arrived in Australia on the Neptune in 1839.

 

Jesse Friend 1817 according to the family story disappeared and was probably murdered  by aborigines in the St Clair region near Singleton, and his death was not registered. The date has not been passed down, but it would be between 1854 and 1869. So apparently he was not a Monaro pioneer at all.

 

A different Jesse Friend married Ellen Green in 1855, married Jessie Summers in 1877, was held in Goulburn Gaol during 1882-3 and died in 1896. The best fit for him is the Jesse Friend who was baptised at Bitton, Gloucestershire on 22 Aug 1821 with parents John and Elizabeth, and arrived in Australia on the Mary Bannatyne in 1849.

 

If you would like to resolve this issue, I would be happy to provide more details.

Kind regards,  Don Lloyd

Hi Don,

Thanks for letting us know, that error should be fixed now.
