The Common Room / Re: "Was Thomas Bolitho a gold miner in Sandhurst Australia?".
« on: Thursday 18 April 24 14:38 BST (UK) »
Well , thank you to you all for the research into Thomas . The info is great and heartening to know that they all settled well in Bendigo and where well thought of .
Dave. I do not know if I can confirm if my Thomas applied for the license 1883..
Jen. You have the right deaths for the Bolithos .
So Thomas was more than a miner .. managed to be a Manager .
If anyone should discover any more I welcome this and best wishes .

The Common Room / "Was Thomas Bolitho a gold miner in Sandhurst Australia?".
« on: Wednesday 17 April 24 15:35 BST (UK) »
Hi all . I have a query about the Husband of my 1st Cousin 5 x rem(a long way off i know)
Thomas Bolitho b 1848 St Just Cornwall was the Husband of Catherine Bolitho . I have limited records for them both and was hoping someone may be able to help?.
The couple emigrated to Sandhurst in Victoria Australia about 1870 where they Married. Thomas's Father had recently died and they probably wanted a new start .
It struck me that Sandhurst was a gold mining Town! and I wish to know if Thomas was a gold miner there in long gully area??
Thank you and hopefully I may get some answers .

Ashtone this is wonderful news/insight into Jacobs life . This is all new to me and can be added to my files on the Family . I am curious about the relief he got?. In 1709 he had 402 pounds in east india stock yet in 1717 he was receiving assistance?. Thanks and if you discover any more on Jacob I appreciate this and best wishes.

Many thanks for this update on Jacob . So he was a stock broker at some point .. a big difference to his religious calling ?. Money maketh the Man! I suppose once you are used to having wealth it stays that way . All this information has given me an even better picture of this Man . I appreciate your time here . Best wishes.

This is wonderful news thanks . I never knew he had connections to the Threadneedle st Church , but not surprising as he did live in London for a time . I will check out the Church . I am wondering though "What he did to earn a living if not in the Church??" SOMETHING TO PONDER ON . Once again thank you for your research and time here it is appreciated . Best wishes .
