Finding out about Sarah FERNLEY
« on: Sunday 27 July 14 07:03 BST (UK) »
I am looking for information about a family member named Sarah Fernley born in 1834 Bollington Cheshire, died 1913 Queensland.  She married John Garside in 1860 in Audenshaw Lancashire but I think he must have died early. She then came to Australia about 1863-65 probably to Queensland and in 1872 married Charles Williams, they had one child I think, also named Charles Williams, born 1875 died 1924.  Sarah had 2 brothers who also came to Australia to NSW, Enoch Fernley and David Fernley.  I would like to know where Sarah and her husband lived and if the son married and had any children.  Thank you

I assume this is Enoch's marriage
Marriages Jun 1867   
CLUES Elizabeth        Stockport    8a/40    
FERNLEY Enoch         Stockport    8a/40

as this death is in NSW

15726/1909    
FERNLEY Elizabeth
Father Clues
District Windsor   

Usually only the given name of the father is shown on the indexes so it would appear that the informant didn't know his name.
