Hi

Do you know the names of Anne's parents at all?

As I found a few entries on the NSW bdms website for a death of a Anne Price. Maybe we can narrow down a death cert and hopefully you may be able to obtain some details of that.

Kind regards Troods

Quicker and cheaper than purchasing a certificate.

Hi browny06
So do I understand that the death of Ann Price in  Wagga that you gave in your initial posting is not the right one for  your Ann Price after all?

You are looking for a daughter of James Kennedy and Bridget Brennen. Is that right?

I'm sure a lot of people on the Aussie board will be happy to search with you, but you will need to give all the  leads you can to support our efforts ;D

I am wondering why you are asking for information on Ann/e's parents ....you have their names and dod......but it is not her father's name on the death reg of the Ann PRICE nee KENNEDY who died in 1907 Wagga Wagga.  Of course it could be just a case of the informant making an error if you are sure this is the correct death reg.  Is there a headstone?

Perhaps if you do as Sue suggests, detail all the information you have and then we will try to help you ...with one request at a time ;D

Hi All,
Interesting to note that among the number of likely births to Thomas and Ann Price there is one in Tumut [close to Adelong]
 
14111/1862 Price   Robert M. Father Thomas Mother Ann.

This would suggest that the name Robert is  an important one in the family, perhaps Ann's father . It gives us a tentative confirmation that the info on the death index for Wagga is correct, not a mistake.

I note there are a possible 9 births to this couple, including a daughter Bridget and all the males have a 2nd given name.  The births are at Tumut and later at Gundagai.  I won't detail them in case I am barking up the wrong tree....all on

I would suggest starting a new topic/thread with a new request and you need to detail all the information you have to save duplicate searches.  Please detail what type of information you are seeking...just giving marriage details really doesn't mean very much.

There has been no response or even a thank you on this thread for the information found so far.  A number of question were asked by both Sue and I and to date, you haven't responded.

Have you searched
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/search.htm
or browsed through the Australian Resources at the top of the board?
