Australia / De Greaves/ Greaves
« on: Wednesday 10 August 22 15:03 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for any information on the De Greaves Family, particularly those before Richard Lambert Greaves who was born in roughly 1848 Ireland and died in 1932 Echuca, Victoria Australia. He married Elizabeth Gunn in Australia.

His parents were Robert Greaves/ De Greaves and Maria Lambert.

I think the De before the name Greaves is confusing me because it doesn't sound like a last name that would be from Ireland. If anyone knows why there is a De in front of the name or has any information on this family please let me know!

Australia / Bowles/Murless families
« on: Friday 26 November 21 07:23 GMT (UK)  »
Hello I have reached a brick wall with finding information on the parents and grandparents of my ancestor Bertha May Murless (born 2 July 1892 Charters Towers) who was put into Diamantina Orphanage on the 2nd of June 1897.

This is the information I have so far:

FATHER:
Harry/Henry Murless
Born 1867 Adelaide, South Australia

MOTHER:
Ellen Bowles
Born 1858 Bathurst, New South Wales.

Bertha may have had a sister called Edith Emily Murless who also went to an orphanage and was born on the 24th of April 1890, Avadale, Queensland. On the document I found of her, her mothers name was listed as Sophia Bowles.

Any help would be appreciated!! Thankyou,
