Hi could you see if there are any children born to James and Jessie Lowe and if there is a death for a Jessie Lowe?

I have a James Lowe who had a daughter Annie in abt 1841 and lost his wife sometime after that. He later took his family to South Africa.

Thanks, Laverdiere

Hi, I want to find Septimus Woodhouse born in England 1864. I think he went to Australia between 1881 and 1891. He was a sheep farmer. I dont know if he married. When he died his nephews and nieces in England received a small amount of money. Thanks Tidgie.

Hi everyone, I am leaving for a weeks holiday as of this afternoon June 6th so I wont be able to access the internet to reply to any lookup requests! I shall be back after June 12th - sometime after that I will be able to help again.

To both requests from Laverdiere and Tidgie, I had a look but was not successful in finding anything. Possibly you are looking at the wrong state in Australia? Sorry I couldnt be of any help to you both.

Hi.
I was wondering what the procedure is for before 1839.

I have George Henry Bras(s)ington Married to Susan(nah) Davi(e)S 13 Nov 1837. I have their first child listed as Phoebe BRAS(S)INGTON 24 Feb 1838. which means, either mother was pregnant before wedding, or child was 6 months premiture.. Either way the child died one day later. I can't say the whole Phoebe thing is true and correct as I got it from LDS, along with alot of other BRAS(S)ington info. But is there some way I/you/someone can search this info? Like Phoebe's Birth and Death Certificate. Is there some way to find where the child is buried? They also had one other child while in SA, Caroline Esther, I don't have her certificate, but I believe she was born 8 April 1839.
I also have no idea how they came to be in SA, both came in via NSW as convicts, him in 1832 and her in 1828.
Thanks for your help,
Liz

Hi Liz,

Unfortunately I wasnt able to find the births on cd as theyre too early (1842 - 1906) but did find the parents marriage which verified your dates. There were other Brassington births and deaths but not to the parents you mentioned and much later on. Did your Brassingtons stay in SA?

Hi,
Wow :O

That was quick thank you for searching and continuing to look. I am sorry I should have mentioned (i was a wee bit tired as I had discoved this site, and didn't wanna go to bed

) that they( Or maybe just her) left SA before APR 1841 as she had a child in NSW, (and continued having them ever two years in NSW :O ) He could possibly been involved with ships/shipping.. I don't have the book but the Bega genealogy book, says that he got shipwrecked somewhere near Pambula Nsw.
Ok, I have probably babbled enough.
Thanks again for your help.
Liz

Hi Liz, try this site - noticed it has NSW and shipping information on it. If you click on BDMs it will take you to another page with the state you want to search. Good luck with it and I will still keep looking for you!

Here is the site:
