Australia / Redfern/Painter ??
« on: Tuesday 10 July 12 05:40 BST (UK)  »
This is more so for my grandmother who asked me If "I could please try to trace her mother's side, as we're somehow related to Dr William Redfern 1774-1883, and also Lachlan Macquarie who was dubbed "The Father Of Australia. I know my Great grandmother was Claire (pronounced clara) quelch (born Redfern) died sometime in the 90's. Her mother was also Clara Redfern (born Painter we think). We're a little confused as we know there is Clara Redfern who married a Thomas Redfern sometime We assume back in the 1800's. unclear, but they date back to Dr William Redfern somehow and also Lachlan Macquarie, I'm confused as hell haha. But any help would be most appreciated by my Grandmother. Thank You  :D :D

Australia / Woodford Family
« on: Sunday 08 July 12 09:46 BST (UK)  »
Now that I'm at it I may aswell try mum's father's side aswell. Which like the rest is also an unknown family. My mothers father was Raymond Leslie Woodford born 1930-31? - 2008, his father was a Bernard Woodford though I don't know dates of birth nor his mother. I believe he had a second family after divorcing my grandmother over 30-35 years ago maybe longer. And I'm the first to admit I'm quite computer illiterate so I have no clue the sites to go on to find info, though We're very appreciative of all the help you lovely people have given.

Australia / Turner Family
« on: Sunday 08 July 12 06:49 BST (UK)  »
I'm also trying to find out about the Turner Family, dad's mother's side was the Pullen side which I'm grateful for all the info. But dad's father's side is the big mystery. My grandfather was Athol Amos Turner (born 1941-2008), his father was a Edward Amos Turner (Born 1903 in Picton NSW -1950 Lismore NSW). His parents were Samuel Turner and Mary Jane Turner (Born Bateup) though we can't find there dates of birth nor any more information on the side of the family. My great Uncle has been through records and things and can't find anything past Samuel and Mary. It's always been wondered where their dark skin came from.

Australia / Matthew Weekes??
« on: Sunday 08 July 12 05:47 BST (UK)  »
As my family are trying to find out about our family history, on both my mum and dad's sides and their parents sides. We're trying to find out any information on a man believed to be named Mathew/Matthew Weekes/Weeks who is believed to of been born between 1908-1912 not sure where. But It's our belief he was in Cowra, New South Wales, Australia in 1931(in his early 20's). Unfortunetly we do not have any more info on this man. But some family have spent fruitless hours going through records and we can't seem to find him. Any info is much appreciated,

Australia / Pullen Family
« on: Saturday 07 July 12 15:41 BST (UK)  »
Hello, I'm currently trying to research information on my Grandmother's side, we don't have much information to go by, all I have is my grandmother was Margaret Turner (Pullen) (born 5/7/1942?- died 4/1/2004), We're trying to find out more about her family, the only names I know are her father Thomas Warrick Pullen (died around 1989 in Lismore, New South Wales, Australia) and her mother Jesse Charlotte Pullen (born Goodwin) Also deceased roughly around 1975-76. We don't know anything more on that side of the family, and there has always been alot of unanswered questions regarding that side. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

NB: I'm uncertain but through some research It's possible Thomas Warrick Pullen has parents names William John Pullen and Mary Elizabeth Pullen (born Mcgrath).  Thank You :)
