From the NSW State Records it looks like James 26 yo  and Margaret 25 yo arrived Sydney on the Nimroud 12 Oct 1856 ex London.  Their infant son James died at sea  :'(

Now to try and find them in England.

Wow, thanks Jamjar and Dundee  :). Those funeral notices are very useful, good to see I was on the right track with Richards  ;)

E. A. E. Richards is Eliza's brother Edwin Albert Ernest

Where did you find William's parents Jamjar?

Cheers, Jane

Happy Easter Folks.

I'm helping a friend with her tree and we're looking for the forebears of her grandfather, Harold Whiteford (or Whitford) ARTHUR b 1896 St Peters NSW, d Sydney 11/12/1974.

Parents: William Henry Arthur d Sydney 1961? & Eliza Ann X.  My money is on Eliza Ann RICHARDS 1861-1915 m. Sydney 1886 but there is also an Eliza A LUKE m 1885  :-\

Sibs: Richard Clinton Arthur 1891-1917 m Stella M. Toope; Gracie Arthur 1887-1961 m Frank Noble 1910.

Married: Amy Olive BETHEL 1899-1966, par: Arthur John BETHEL & Caroline DUNMAN

I've found a possible death of William Henry in Sydney 1961 but nothing more on the Arthur line.

Any help or leads appreciated.

Cheers, Jane

Well if you're in luck as the Graham family appears to be descendants of a liaison between two convicts: Matthew Locke and Elizabeth Eupham Graham.  :)  There are William Graham's Grandparents.

I was very annoyed to find that my BIL has three convicts in his tree whereas I have only respectable settlers,  ;)

Hi there 'Poor old me' and welcome to RootsChat. 

I haven't done any work on this tree for some time but would be happy to share what I know.  From memory, Lavinia Graham was my BIL's maternal grandfather. What's your connection to this family?

BTW once you have made at least three posts I can send you a message with my contact details is you wish.

Cheers, Jane

Thanks Brian, and welcome to Rootschat!

My Wright cousins are from Perth so I'll have to check if they were related to George Victor.
