Quick thanks again Forum - Lucas Family.

Opps! Meant 'when' and from 'where' - 'what'? Ship of course - reminded of the era.

Wow! Trove articles - a treasure 'trove' of family gems - ta.

Muswellbrook Cemetery info - incentive to visit - ta also.

Hello again Forum re: Lucas Family - huge thanks!

These names certainly echo from childhood 'listening in to adult conversations'  and "ring" true throughout Emmie's descendants as well! :D

The name Neilson (Dinah Nina) is also interesting - am wondering if there is a Scandinavian connection now?

Also wondering how the Francis George branch of the Lucas's arrived in the 'Land Down Under'?

Certainly have some homework to do........... :P

Happy searching to all!

Re: Lucas Family - Muswellbrook -Search;
Thank you all so much!
Emmie has so many descendants that have no idea of these vital family connections - much appreciated.

Still not able to get beyond name and detail entry to 'historical indexes' on NSW BDM site?
13987/1872 - Dinah Neilson - my Great Great Great Grandmother - then Dinah Nina Lucas (deceased 17890/1947)- what is the connection then to Charles and Nina @ Chatswood then, do you think?

Big thanks to all again!
Sharyn.

Hi Forum,
I am seeking more info on my Grandmother Emmie Bury (ne Lucas).
She was born in 1899 - Muswellbrook, NSW Australia and married George Albert Bury in 1924, in the same town I believe.
At the time of her eldest child's birth she and husband were living on Cabramatta Road Mosman at around 1927.

It seems the Lucas family are 'A Nation Within A Nation' according to my limited research..
However I would like to be able to source Emmie's immediate family - parents - siblings etc., and start from there.
Thanks all!
Sharyn. :)
