Hello again Ian. 

I only have Edvard's (Edvard Jorgen Jorgesen) children in Australia. 

Edvard changed his name to Edward Johnson when arriving here in Australia and only found out through this posting that Edward was actually Edvard Jorgen Jorgesen a less than 24 hours ago. 
Thank you again! :-)

Wow Debra!  Thanks so much!  I am searching through the Church records on Family Search at this very moment.  I had heard about it, but never even dreamed to search records on there.  Is it a free site to join do you know? 

Jorgen now makes sense. 

Thank you too for two more entries! Goodbye Tuesday for me!  Luckily it is only 9.14am! 
I really do appreciate this.  One thing I am surprised about is the fact that when I order a transcription for the Marriage of Edward and Susan it never mentioned Jorgen Battlason and yet, it was written on the record. 

Thanks very much!  There is a long and happy story about this and when I have time, I will tell you about it!

 I am looking for my 2nd Great Grandfather Terence Francis Lynch, originating from Ireland but arrived in Victoria, Australia in 13 Dec 1873. I have done quite a bit of research but at a standstill. It seems like a troubled life for all concerned but I am hoping to find out what happened to him after 12 Jan 1878 when the Emerald Police Station arrested him for a second time for deserting his wife Mary (Barrett).
Daughter Frances Lynch is my Great Grandmother, married and moved to NSW. Edward (Timy??) and John Joseph were in trouble with the law in Victoria. I found out that Edward died through stories in the newspapers. John Joseph is a mystery. Ernest moved to WA - he was in the Army. His son become a well-known violinist. All the details are as below.
I hope you can help me unravel what happened to Terence and Mary and John Joseph in Victoria. My sincere thanks in advance. I do not have birth or death records for Terence Francis or Mary Barrett's birth records as have not been able to locate.

Thanks so much!  It looks like RedTonyT may have the correct people.  It seems to fit some of the other information I have.  :-)

Unfortunately I tried to but I can't order anything older than 1916.  :-(
