Spot on Thankyou....
I think the confusion was ...there is a "place" in Germany called Stolp where some of these place names Im looking for are...I understand that Slope means city
Thanks again

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: Using DNA matches to find my Paternal grandfathers family
« on: Saturday 09 December 23 00:03 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Dave,
Can I suggest Gedmatch...Its Free and password protected ..one-to-many around 3000 matches you will get...One -to-one will allow you to compare and one area will allow you to put your kit and their kit numbers it will give you that you both match.
having the Haplogroup = tribe..might also be handy...the thinking is that many nations immigrated overseas and English-ised their names and some just wrote it as it sounded
maybe Ireland Genealogy projects with Christina Finn Hunt...lots of links to search different counties in Ireland

Hi to the group
This is tormenting me...Albertine Caroline Rosin b.1855 died 1912 Australia married apparently 1874 Theodor Robert Ernst Herrmann 1852-1927 died Australia
This information was borrowed from trees on ancestry.....says her

birth was 10 March 1855 Vangerske Koslin, Pommern

Marriage 5 June 1874 Dannen Koslin Pommern

marriage 5 June 1874 Damme Mecklenburg Seenplatte Mecklenburg Vorpommern

Residence March 1878 Grumbkow Pommern

There is no information with her parents Henry Rosin and Helene Coldon...I cannot find these places in Germany and therfore I cannot find a marriage or birth ...Appreciate any help or advice to get me through this rainy weekend
Cheers and Thankyou Rick in Australia

Thankyou Debra,
I cannot find this Thomas Richards with this combination of siblings His records says he was 26 in 1840 =1814-1816 however I cannot find him ....
This Thomas the convict was married Anglican all these other siblings born Non conformist independant ...I guess a marriage for the father Thomas Richards snr and mother Catherine Jones would help to confirm first born Thomas the convicts age...I have in my notes a Catherine Jones 1794-1838 of Tai-teg Derwen Melin-y-wig Denbighshire but havnt been able to confirm it
cheers Rick

Hi Wivenhoe, Ive enclosed a copy of the 1841 Wales Census with the names, but really my question was who gave the names of Thomas Richards the convict parents and siblings...on his record..
Appears the mother died having Thomas jr b 1838 where I just cannot find Thomas Richards the convict born abt 1821 and yet this is the only Family I have found with this combination of kids..maybe the authorities just wrote it down incorrect
Cheers R

Family History Beginners Board / General question Convicts to Tasmania Please

Hi to the group

A general question re Convicts to Tasmania Please...

On the convict sheet for my neighbour there is much information written by the authorities for example..Tried, date, what for, how long, hair colour, eye colour height etc...My question is..

Who told the authorities his wifes name his Fathers and Mothers name and siblings names......Im guessing that this information was from the horses mouth so to speak, and could easily be wrong for example, I have

on sheet ..Wife Elizabeth F= father Thomas M=mother Gwen 3 B=boys Wm,Joh [either John or Joseph] Rich 4 G=girls Kitty, Elizabeth Mary and Ann...for months searching for this combination, I found this...

Wife Elizabeth Father Thomas Mother Kitty [Catherine] boys John and Richard Girls "Gwen" Mary and Anne  ..Elizabeth can be the wife and grandmother...I hate assuming, however could I assume that my neighbours Thomas the convict offered this information with a little spin on it, knowing it would not be checked??

Thankyou Rick in Tasmania
