London and Middlesex / COFFEY / COFFEE family from St Marylebone

Hi,
     looking for some information on my ancestors.

Elizabeth Coffey
Birth 10 Nov 1838 in St Marylebone, London, England
Death 9 Aug 1923 in Grafton, New South Wales, Australia (Elizabeth Klotz)

Have also seen this spelt Coffie, Coffee and even Coffa.

I believe her parents were Michael Coffey and Harriet Emerton who were married in Westminster in Sep 1834. I don't have any birth or death dates for her parents or know much about them.

I think Elizabeth (listed as Coffie), was listed as working as a servant when she was 12 in the house of Ann Leonard in the 1851 census.

Somewhere between then and 1857 she immigrated to Australia where she married Thomas Logan in 1857.

Thomas died in 1867, she married Louis Klotz in 1869.

Any further information about this family and their ancestors would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Suffolk / WINGFIELD , Willingham, Suffolk

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

Hi,
   trying to track down some ancestors.

They appear here

http://theweald.org/N10.asp?NId=5271156

in the census from 1881.

I believe that william's father's name was Jonathan and the mothers name was Mary but don't have any other information.

William's wife was Ann Hodge, daughter of Henry and Eliza, but agian just know the names.

They travelled back and forth to Australia with their young family, but not sure when or where for the deaths of William and Ann.

Any further information regarding this family would be much appreciated.

thanks

Hertfordshire / WATSON Family from Therfield
« on: Friday 01 April 11 15:45 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
    am hoping someone might be able to provide more information about the Watson's in Therfield.

My ancestor came to Australia in 1852, he was

James Watson
Birth 28 Aug 1827 in Therfield, Hertfordshire, England
Death 15 Feb 1902 in New South Wales, Australia

I think his parents were

William Watson
Birth 1787 in Therfield, Hertfordshire, England
Death  1872

and

Hester Esther Batt
Birth 21 Oct 1787 in Therfield, Hertfordshire, England
Death 1867 in Hertfordshire, England

but not 100% sure.

If anyone has any further information about this family, and in particular the lineage with some older ancestors, would be very grateful. Any general information about this family would also be gratefully accepted.

Thanks
