« on: Sunday 29 October 17 09:18 GMT (UK)  »
I have a Edward Thomas Wren born 23rd January 1851 at Hertfordshire, he 1st married EMMA JENNINGS 25th December 1869 Great Amwell Hertfordshire, they had a daughter Emma Sophia in 1870 at Ware Hertfordshire, 2nd marriage to  a MARY ELLEN FYFE 1874 at Wagga Wagga, she was born 1858 at Williamstown. Their children were  (1)Rachel Elizabeth 1875 died 1907 Western Australia,(2) Edward Thomas 1877 died 1960 in WA (3) Ada Sophia 1878 died 1878 at Wagga Wagga (4) Edith A 1878 Albury,(5) Walter 1879 died 1950 Fremantle (6) Ethel Maude 1881 died 1881 Albury (7) Annie Mary 1884 died 1937 Perth.

I found a death of a Emma Wren in 1907 at Bishops Stortford Hertfordshire, did they separate & he came to NSW Australia?

I am now looking for  the deaths of Edward Thomas Wren & his wife Mary Ellen I can not find them in WA

Thank You

Australia / Walter Thomas Stearn
« on: Wednesday 04 October 17 10:06 BST (UK)  »
I have a Walter Thomas Stearn who died 8th October 1957 & his wife Mary Hetta Stearn who died in 1955. They had a daughter Florence Mary (Scholer) who died 24th May 1951 & wondered if they are all buried together.
I was wondering if there is  someone going to the Waverley Cemetery in Sydney? that might be able to check if there is a headstone if there is to photograph & email it to me.

I have contacted the Waverley Cemtery who tell me Walter Thomas is buried Allotment 2622 Extension A, Division Select, Section 6.
They have also told me the info below.
We can certainly provide allotment maps which can help locate particular sites, as well as photographs of allotments, however there is a small fee for these services.

We cannot advise whether there is a monumental marker for this allotment, however, for a fee of $25.00  Per allotment (0.6% surcharge for credit card), we can arrange for photographs of the allotment to be taken and emailed to you. Please note, that we cannot guarantee  there will be a memorial or inscription on the allotment.

And for a fee of A$10.25 (0.6% surcharge for credit card) per allotment / or deceased when documentation is requested (in instances of multiple searches we can combine the information, if they are in the same section, which reduces the fee as multiple maps would not be required). The fee includes completion of the requested search and the supply of cemetery record, section and allotment maps which will include the provision of allotment details regarding the requested individual(s).

I hope I am not asking to big a request
Many thanks for any assistance
Ellen from Perth

Australia Lookups completed / William Snowling Stearn died 22nd November 1912 in Wangaratta Victoria
« on: Tuesday 12 September 17 09:43 BST (UK)  »
William Snowling Stearn married Catherine Fleming 30th December 1862 at St Stephens Church Toodjay  ( formally Newcastle ) Western Australia. On the 17th September 1863 William & Catherine were witness's at the marriage of Ann Hackett & Charles Brown in The Wesley Church in Perth.
On the 29th July 1864 their son Daniel was born at Warnambool Victoria. I have been searching for many years as to how they got over to Victoria.
NSW Police Gazette 12th July 1893 Notice under Missing Friends it has WILLIAM SNOWLING STEARN a native of England said to have left Western Australia per ship "Kestral" in 1864 for Sydney. I have never found a passenger List for this ship.
William Snowling Stearn was a Convict from Suffolk sent out on the "Adelaide" arriving at Fremantle 18th July 1855.
I have all of his information in Suffolk & Victoria, just can not find how they came over to Victoria so hoping some kind person might be able to solve this mystery for me
Thank You
