The Common Room / Help with Ellen Ross
« on: Monday 17 March 14 01:50 GMT (UK)  »
Hi RootsChat I really need some help with this one. I have been digging for a few years now and cannot figure this one out. My descendant Ellen Ross has no birth or death cert. I believe I am on the right path with an Ellen Ross that turned up in Braidwood District and married a John Seeley 1847 Gilston.  Ellen Seeley turns up in a Trove article a the Goulburn Police Court stating she is awaiting to go to the Benevolent Society and wins the case letting her wait in the lockup rather than go to Goulburn Gaol this is 27/9/1861. THAT'S IT  no trace of information on her afterwards and certainly no death that I can find. I haven't been able to pinpoint her coming to Australia so not even sure of age.  I have searched to The Benevolent Assylum website and her name does not show. Can anyone shed some light on where I maybe able to find further information, would greatly appreciate some insight. ???

Lancashire / Charles Lomax - Lancashire
« on: Sunday 17 April 11 04:44 BST (UK)  »
Hi, I would be very grateful for any help and to find someone else interested in this family. My GGGGrandfather Charles Lomax bn Lancashire to John & Margaret Lomax. Not sure of birth date. Only information I have is that he came to Australia 1840 on the Ship Eden. His brother or cousin Samuel was also onboard the Eden at the same time as Charles. He may have a cousin Peter who came to Australia on the ship Albion. Charles Lomax was tried at the Lancaster Bolton QS and sentenced 10 years. Samuel was tried at the Chester Quarter Sessions.  Would love to fill in the gaps of these men as I have nothing on the family or crime.

Thanks in advance ;D
