This is what I have at the moment. James Vost was born c. 1812 in Hayes, Middlesex. He met and married Sarah Ann Peck in 1845 in Uxbridge, Middlesex. So far I have found 5 children, all born in Uxbridge. Mary Ann, b. 1845, George Thomas, b. 1847, Charles, b. 1849, William, b. 1851 and James, b. 1854. DAVE


As I mentioned  there are records for a brother, CHARLES in Australia. He and  his wife and young family  arrived in 1884.


There is a good deal of "cross-naming" in the family.

By exploring the websites I have listed you will  be able to see a lot of life events for the Vost's in NSW.

Sue

PS

the other was named Louisa  DAVE
 
She seeemingly did not marry.  She has the ship's name as her forename ;) ;)

Hi Sue.
Thanks for the links to the web sites. I have passed them on to the family as we have other relatives who emigrated to Oz.

Yes I do know about Charles and Caroline. They also settled in the Sydney area and ended up with 12 children all together. One of them was called Thomas, born 1888 in Sydney, and could be the one who married Ivy. Could it be that the Thomas, I was after, married Ethel Mary in another state, not NSW. Incidentally, is there a FreeBMD site for Australia the same as we have in the UK? The cross naming does make things more difficult when you are half a world away from the records.

Hi Dave,
Each State of Australia has its own BMD listings which are searched seperately.  There is also a wide variation on what details given on each State's facility, as well as the years which are available.

To explore the different networks you can look at the top of the Aust. Board and go through each State's resources.

Yes, possibly ETHEL and THOMAS married in another state and that indeed, is worth a good search  ;D

Here is photo portrait from the 1930's which I think is CHARLES VOST, husband of CHARLOTTE and son of GEORGE THOMAS  and ELIZABETH SARAH.

He died in 1938 and you will see this death on..

Hi Dave,

Please contact me regarding this Vost family, I have been researching this family for over twenty years.

I'm a direct descendant of George Thomas and Elizabeth Elderfield.

Hello, fellow Vost family members. Caroline (Vost) Dunn (b.1893) and daughter of Charles Vost, b. 1848 or 49, was my grandmother. I would be happy to help sort out all those Vosts who arrived in Australia in the 1880's.
cheers

Hello Gavan,
   Welcome to rootschat   :)

   Hopefully some family members will be along soon.

   I just noticed that there are many VOST probate packets at NSW archives (and a couple of divorces) including many of the names mentioned.
https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/

   I would be happy to photograph any of these the next time I am there.

adding : just type VOST into the main searchbox on the homepage

And here are two Thomas VOST marriages NSW

14209/1911  VOST  THOMAS  spouse PINCHAM  IVY M at PARRAMATTA   
14009/1938  VOST  THOMAS CHARLES HERBERT spouse  BEER  MAVIS ESMEE  at AUBURN 

Again, the Parramatta one looks most likely
Dawn M
I'm pretty sure that the Thomas Vost who married Ivy Pincham in 1911 at Parramatta is the son of Charles Vost (1849-1914). The other one, Thomas Charles Herbert Vost, who married Mavis Beer, is his (i.e., Thomas') son.
