Down / Re: Dines Family of Killinchy

Hi Dan

    Sorry it's taken a while to reply. PC issues. I am reduced to what info I have on paper atm rather than what I have recorded on my PC. George Dines & Margaret Hennessy are actually my husbands GGG Grandparents. Their daughter Margaret (born 1841 Ballygigan, Killinchy) and her husband Thomas George emigrated to Australia in 1864 with their son Thomas where they had another 9 children, 4 in Queensland & 5 more when they moved interstate to NSW with only 2 of those 5 surviving childhood. Thomas George was a Miner but disappears off radar sometime after the birth of their youngest child William in 1882. Margaret remarries in 1895 I think (I do have the marriage record on my PC but not on paper) her marital status at the time was recorded as widow, she died the following year 12th June 1896 Mt Morgan, QLD, Australia.

   Unfortunately I have very little on George Dines & Margaret Hennessy thus far other than the fact that George was a Bailiff.

Looking at Victoria's death index it looks as though Mark Ffrench died at Ararat Hos[pital?].

Yes I saw that thanks Aghadowey...wondering if there's any point paying for the Certificate as there's no Father, mother or spouse info

Can't remember if this posted yet-

The Argus [Melbourne], 18 June 1855: FFRENCH—ALDRICH—If Mark Ffrench, of Tuam, Co. Galway, Ireland, who arrived at Port Phillip in the Baretto Junior, in October 1853, will write to his brother-in-law, Charles F. Aldrich, Newcastle, N.S. Wales, he will relieve the painful anxiety of his friends, who have not heard of or from him since his arrival in the colonies. Or if any one has seen or heard of him, Mr. Aldrich will feel grateful if they would correspond with him, and address Newcastle, N.S. Wales.

Wow this would explain a lot...why Amelia was working as a Governess in England while still married...Charles F Aldrich was one of the 3 surviving brothers of Frances & Amelia who all settled in Australia prior to Amelia marrying if memory serves

                                     Thank you Aghadowey

Hi Everyone

    Thank you so much for all the help I really appreciate it. I finally found these 2 sisters, now it seems I've lost Frances again but at least I can cross Amelia off the list. Now to see what I can find out about this Mark Ffrench travelling to Australia

                                          Thanks again

Charles Lynch's 1st wife Belinda-
http://www.willcalendars.nationalarchives.ie/reels/cwa/005014911/005014911_00147.pdf

Can't see death in Ireland in 1900s for Frances Lynch yet.

Perhaps a remarriage then with Charles dying in 1905 & the estate passing to his son from his 1st marriage may have been her only option...can't find a death in England

                                    Thanks for all the help

Again, a newspaper snippet - is it the same Mark Ffrench?
8th February 1854 Tuam Herald
‘and protecting them for the future against such villainous” treatment that experienced our respected townsman Mark Ffrench, Ksq., (to whom wish God speed and all success in the laud of his adoption), and his suffering fellow-passengers Australia’

There is an Australian death 1884 for  Mark Ffrench but I have no access so no idea if it is him.

This is very interesting Heywood...it could explain why Amelia is never recorded with her husband especially if he was travelling to Australia in 1854...does it mention an Australian State where he could have died I've checked the register of Births, deaths & marriages in NSW but nothing there

                                                     Thank you for this

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR REPLYING

      I do remember the information about Charles Lynch's 1st wife Belinda & 2nd wife a "French" i am guessing this was an assumption based on Frances probably residing with her sister Amelia Ffrench I have the marriage record for Charles Lynch & Frances Aldrich in Ireland

i am curious if Dominick Lynch who inherited the Estate from Charles was the son of his 1st marriage as I believe Frances & Charles had at least 2 children Neptune Lynch & Susan Lynch (unconfirmed)
it appears the year after they are recorded in the 1901 Ireland Census Frances is recorded as a widowed inmate in a workhouse then her death late 1905 in Tuam (TBC).

Also have to wonder as it appears Dominick Lynch only had 6 daughters who inherited the family estate on his death...is this where the French-Lynch name starts? Lots of questions

Ian Nelson

Funny you should mention a France/French connection...Amelia & Frances's mother was Susan Bartlett FRANCE born in Brixham...Her father was Commander R.N. Nathaniel Thomas FRANCE born in Plymouth however from here the Irish connection begins his father Nathaniel FRANCE a surgeon in R.N. born in Waterford Ireland...Capt Thomas FRANCE born Ireland then there's a Rev Thomas FRANCE who seems to have some connection to Bishop Nathaniel FOY.

It would seem there could be more to the French/France connection than Amelia's marriage.

Unfortunately I could not access any information on Rawcliffe Hall.

    Thanks again everyone for all the help

Galway / Ffrench & Lynch Families Tuam Galway
« on: Friday 30 September 22 09:20 BST (UK)  »
Hi all

     I'm looking for information on 2 sisters born in Devon England but married into the Ffrench & Lynch Families of Tuam, Galway. Amelia France ALDRICH & Frances Mary Emma ALDRICH daughters of a C of E Clergyman from Brixham, Devon.

Amelia is recorded in the 1841 UK Census aged 25. working as a Governess in Brixham

there is no record of her in the 1851 UK census perhaps she was in Ireland. She married a Ffrench around this time I am unable to access my Family tree on the PC atm but from memory her husband was "Mark Joseph Ffrench"

In the 1861 UK census she is back in Brixham with her father Charles ALDRICH & youngest sister Frances ALDRICH & she is recorded as married "wife of a private Gentleman" her husband was not with her

in the 1871 UK census she is recorded as married but working as a Governess in Lancashire husband not with her.

nothing in the 1881 & 1891 UK census guessing she was back in Ireland

1901 Ireland Census she is a Widow living with her sister Frances Lynch, her husband Charles Lynch (a landowner) & their Grandson Jack Sexton in Carrowbeg

I am hoping these sisters are recorded in Ireland during these missing Census returns

Frances disappears from the UK records after the death of her father in 1864...I don't believe Amelia had children of her own but Frances may have the names Neptune LYNCH & Susan LYNCH come to mind.

I believe there is a connection between the Ffrench & Lynch Families around this time

Amelia was born in Brixham, Devon 1817
Frances was born in Stonehouse, Devon 1843

both sisters married in R.C. Church in Ireland

                                                      Thanks
