New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: HARGRAVE - circa 1850
« on: Monday 29 August 16 01:30 BST (UK)  »
Lu,
 Thats the problem I keep encountering, these people have the most generic names.
All the certificates that I have contain conflicting information.
On his sons birth certificate it states that John was born in Suffolk.
On Johns death certificate it says he was born in Suffolk as well and that he had been in Australia for 60 years. It states that his fathers name was John and his mothers name was Mary Dixon.
On his marriage certificate to Louisa Matilda Howell it says his place of birth was Manchester, his mothers name was Matilda Dixon and his fathers name was James.
Witnesses were Mary Howell (The brides sister or mother) & T. Hays

Lu,
   There are a handful of people that have JFH in there trees as being born in 1846 in Bathurst Australia.
However if his marriage and death certificates are to be believed he was born in England.
I have also looked into the John who was born in Bathurst that year and the names of the parents don't line up.

I have been in touch with other people who are researching this line and most of there trees end with JFH Hargrave.

Hi Trish,
           On his marriage cert it says his father was an "engineer" and on his death cert it says "mechanic"

There are variations depending on who you talk to.
His headstone said he was 85 when he died on 25/01/1915
His Obit on the other hand states he was 78.

And i have varying birth years from 1830-1835.
His death cert says he was born in Suffolk. However I have also seen it recorded as manchester.
( I really hate this guy)
As for his brothers name, depending on who you talk to in the family his name was either James or William.
I'm so sorry I'm not being even remotely helpful.

New Zealand Completed Requests / HARGRAVE - circa 1850

It's a long shot but I am looking for anyone who may be linked with my ancestors in Australia.

The story goes that my G-G-G Grandfather John Francis Henry Hargrave travelled from England to Australia around 1850 with his brother.
His brother then went on to New Zealand while my ancestor remained in Australia.
On John's death certificate it states his fathers name is John- though on his marriage certificate it states his fathers name was James.
His mothers name was Mary/ Matilda Dixon.

I know its a bit vague, but i thought someone may recognise the names from their own records. Thanks,
Kayla

Hi Glenn,
Thank you for replying, I have seen a few trees that state that John Francis Henry was born in 1846. However on my Johns death certificate it states that he was born in suffolk and arrived in Australia 60 years prior to his death.
I don't think my John is your John, unless he lied about his information in a big way.
Thanks anyway :)

Hi

I can find Lydia (4.1.1768 Thompson), Edward Lyncoln (8.4.1773 Thompson), William (18.7.1779 Thompson), Susannah (8.7.1776 Thompson) their parents being John and Ann in the Norfolk Archdeacons Transcripts and Bishops Transcripts, but I can't find Edward 1768 and Margaret 1769 and more importantly, Simon 1767 in Thompson.

There is someone's genealogy reference in FS to Margaret (21.8.1769 Thomson) and Edward (3.1.1768 Thompson), but can't find the actual record. Any help would be appreciated.

What is the link with Simon though?

How do we know they are his brothers and sisters?

Sorry for being a pest.

Regards
Mo

Hi Mo,
        Your information sounds correct I have Edward L Bullen listed in Thompson. Can you just confirm for me, you said his parents were listed as John and Ann. Did you mean Elizabeth Ann?
Unfortunately I cannot be of help with regards to Simon, I thought there may be a link as the names in my tree matched the discussion.

Sorry I couldn't be much help ( It's quite hard to track down records from Australia)
Cheers
Kayla  :)

Hi R,
      I noticed you were posting 2 years ago so this is a long shot but, I am currently trying to trace back the family line from Australia.
I was wondering if Simon Bullen had a brother named Edward L Bullen? I too have John Bullen and Elizabeth Ann listed as parents ( With the same dates) as well as a John and Mary as grandparents.
Any information you could share would be much appreciated :)

Thanks -Kayla
