Stewart Huston, John's brother is my great great great grandfather. I am a descendant of his son Arthur Johnston Huston who immigrated to New Zealand. I have been building my family tree on Heritage.com. Was very intrigued to find the Griffith Valuation

Does any one have information about the John Carver of 'Carver & Dalton' who were auctioneers in Ballarat and Geelong in the 1850s?.   One of the recreations at the Soveriegn Hill theme park in Ballarat is their auction and sale room -  his associate was a William Dalton.

Thanks,

Neil Carver.

Hi Neil,   Just saw this post.    I did a little bit of research on this topic.

As I was searching for information on William Dalton

and trying to figure out if my man was the William Dalton of Carver & Dalton.

If you are still looking for info on this topic, let me know.

Thank you for your reply.   I am very sure Elizabeth Cotter is not his mother, so I can rule out that one.

Hello chrisnlhf,     Very pleased to make contact with you.
  We are definitely cousins.   I would love to know more.    Did Arthur have siblings? 
I do know Arthur and Martha had 12 children born in NZ.

I am a great grandchild of John Huston & Mary Ann (nee Hunter) who's family moved to Clunes, Vic, Australia from Ireland.

Are you living in NZ?
If you would like to discuss more and share info.   I'd be pleased to hear from you.   Regards.

Thanks so much for the replies,   Yes I am still looking for information.


John Huston and Mary Ann Huston are my great great grandparents,  I have visited their grave at Clunes.

I have seen Mary Ann Huston's obit in the Clunes Newspaper.

I posted the photos and information on billiongraves

I have since confirmed that Stewart Huston b 1810 is the son of Margaret Johnson and John Huston

Thanks for the replies

William Torval Patterson occupation Carpenter

Mother:  Petronilla Larson

Father: Parker Nilson Patterson, occupation Soldier

They may have been Danish, before Schleswig Holstein, became part of Germany, but not sure about the historical time line of this


There is an account of court proceeding in the newspaper where William had evidently assaulted his step-daughters fiancee and William was referred to as "that excitable foreigner". 

So I guess that it would have been the Ararat Newspaper,  but cannot find anything relating to this family story on the trove web site.

William has got 2 step daughters
Harriett Ellin Jones b 1874 Ararat, married 1899 William Pat Procter or Proctor
Eliza Fry Jones b 1876 Ararat, cant find marriage date, but her daughter was born 1910

That would mean that William was still in Ararat before 1899



Possibilities, I havent been able to follow these through, not sure if any of these
might be him
