Inverness / Henry William McKenzie born 1869
« on: Sunday 01 May 22 02:29 BST (UK)  »
Looking for Census 1871/1881 for Henry William McKenzie born 1869 in Inverness but no BC.  Parents William and Ann nee Gordon of Cromdale, Intervallan and Advie. Found one in Aberdeenshire mother Mary but he definitely stated Inverness on army papers.  First son was Gordon and he has reference endorsed by Gen Major Charles Gordon who knew his father probably at Crimean War as many paintings of this war in his home in Perth Western Australia.  He would have been either 2 in census 1871 or 12 in 1881 census.  My last chance at finding my grandfather who was a beautiful person who was the 1st pipe major in WA and played the bagpipes and piano and taught highland dancing at the Caledonian society in Fremantle port of Perth in WA.  He first went to Shanghai and Hong Kong. Apparently his mother died young and he didn’t get along with his father a farmer when he left at age 18. Diane Penberthy

Westmorland / John Harrison
« on: Saturday 22 February 14 06:00 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for Birth date and marriage date for John Harrison (want wife's name).  He was born abt 1795 to 1805 Grasmere, Kendal, Westmorland.  His daughter Elizabeth Harrison born abt 1819 to 1823 married Thomas Lee born 1820 Burneside in1841 in Kendal.  They left for Australia in 1855.  One of their children was named Agnes.  Did John marry Agnes Dodd?
Thomas's parents were James and Ann Lee (nee Cragg) from Cragg's farm. Their daughter Annie called her house in Bendigo, Victoria, Australia "Grasmere".
I am interested in Stott Farm John Harrison.  I don't think it is the Beetham Farm.  There were many mayors named John Harrison.  Any info on any family Harrison, Lee or Cragg gratefully accepted as I need a few clues to go further.  I live in Western Australia.
