England / Re: Charlotte Thomas& William Hopkins

On Sarah's death certificate it states she was in Victoria for 48(?) years. The script is poor. This would point towards 1874 as the period of immigration. However, on William's certificate (he died the 25th of July 1905 at 62 years) it states he had lived in Australia for 22 years. This would point to 1883 as his time of arrival. Obviously there is an error. We do know they came here married.
By the way, William was 28 years old when he married Sarah, which I just realised puts their marriage at 1871!

Alli,
we believe Sarah was married between 1871 and 1873 to William. She died the 12th June 1922 in Australia age 77 years.
Thanks! Frances

England / Charlotte Thomas& William Hopkins
« on: Saturday 03 December 05 09:43 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for information regarding two people. Firstly, my great great grandmother Charlotte. Charlotte (nee unknown) married a man with the surname Thomas, somewhere in England.
Charlotte was the mother of my great grandmother Sarah Ann Thomas {born 1843/45 (?) England died 1922 Australia } who married my great grandfather William Rutt Hopkins in Birmingham England.
I am also trying to find the identity of William Rutt Hopkins's father. I know he was also named William and he is listed as a gentleman on certificates in my possession. I have no idea when William was born but I do know his son William Rutt was born around 1843(?) in Cairns, England. There is a rumour in the family that our Hopkins family owned an inn on the Wiltshire Downs near Stonehenge.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks, Frances
