Title: Are you a descendant of William Spreadborough b1815 England d.1878 Qld. Aust.
Post by: BonnieDownUnder on Wednesday 27 March 13 08:58 GMT (UK)
Hello,
Tracing descendants of William SPREADBOROUGH son of John and Elizabeth nee Edwards SPREADBOROUGH, born 02 June 1815 Kingston Upon Thames, Surrey, England

WILLIAM arrived into Australia with his second wife, Mary Jane nee KNIGHT, who married 12 Aug 1841 England in 1848, along with his/their children, William bc 1836, Susannah bc1837, Caroline bc1842, Francis b1846, Isaac bc1848. 

They went on to have, at least, five more children, John b1852, Thomas b1855, Richard b1857 and Octavius b1860 born in small villages around Warwick, Queensland, except Octavius born in far north NSW.

I am particularly interested to hear from any descendants of Richard's, who married Amelia Adelyn BLACK in 1909, or any persons connected also with the LAMB and GRAYSON families of Warwick, Killarney and surrounding area.

I'm not a descendant but have some connections to the Spreadboroughs in my research particularly John b 1850 (not 1852)  who married Ann Elizabeth Glasby 1873 Warwick and James b 1852 married Harriet Jane Glasby 1878 Warwick.

Good info.  The family seemed to stay around this area for a long time. 

Are we allowed to post links here?

I really should read the rules  ;)

I am a Grayson descendant from Northern Ireland, my great great grandfather was Thomas Grayson. I would be interested in any information you may have on the members of the family who emigrated to Australia.  I have some information on the Grayson's from Boconnell, Lurgan.
