All the family say she was born in Cassilis but no records have been found , but like said it didn't get recorded until 1867 I think it was.

You can search the NSW BDM online yourself:

Family members say agnes was born in Cassilis but have no record of this. Births didn't get recorded till 1867 I think it was.

The NSW Registry started in 1856 previous to that they were Early Church records 1788 to 1855.

Hi bron 63

Just to try to clarify my thoughts here.

Am I correct in saying the only certified information about the mother of the 2 girls being Frances FIRTH comes from the marriage and death certificates of Agnes May?

Who was the informant on Agnes' Death Certificate?

Hi Sue
No I have copy of frances death certificate it has the girls on it Agnes May and Mary Ann.I don't have agnes death certificate I found her information on ancestry in the death index. I only have her marriage certificate,Her married name is Baker. Her sister Mary Ann married name Long. Can you tell me why in them days they put the mothers last name as in fathers on records. Walter Sherry Mayor of mudgee was a witness on Agnes May marriage and his wife Elizabeth Amy Nelthorpe tese 2 are the ones that took care of the girls after Frances passed away in 1864
