Hi,
am trying to track down some in formation on my ancestor.
He was
William Wingfield
Birth 24/2/1834 in Willingham, Suffolk, England
Death 22 May 1911 in Casino, New South Wales, Australia
Married Mary Jane Howden in 1858 in Australia
not sure how he came to Australia but I think it was between 1851 and 1858.
Am not sure about the following information but I think his father was William H Wingfield born 1801 and he married Elizabeth TOVEL or TOBAL on 13 jul 1818 in Suffolk, England and they had 2 sons Charles F born abt 1821 and died 1915 in Waverley, Sydney, also George born 1823 in Suffolk and died 15/8/1859 at Ulmarra, no more information but I believe maybe Elizabeth died as William H Wingfield then married Sarah Wollard in 1824 also in South Elmham, Suffolk, and had another 11 children of which William was one.
Does anyone have any information to verify or deny this as it gets a bit sketchy at this last generation ? Also if this is true, would be keen to understand if or how these folk link in to the overall Wingfield lineage.
thank you
