Wiltshire Lookup Requests / Re: DYER MIDLANE Marriage - Mere
« on: Friday 14 March 08 12:04 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks ev and allibaker.

I should have been more specific.  What I am hoping is that there will be some further information on a marriage certificate particularly regarding Theresa's place of birth and parents.  I have quite a lot lof information after 1841.
John Jones Dyer and Theresa's son John Midlane Dyer emigrated to Australia in 1871 and is myggrandfather.

This site and the people in it are wonderful - thanks again!

Wiltshire / Mere - DYER, MIDLANE
« on: Thursday 13 March 08 23:21 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for information about this family:

John Jones Dyer, b. 1799, Greenwich, d 1861, Fingest House, Henley
Theresa Caroline, wife, b. Somerset West (?) d 1862 Greenwich
Theresa Midlane Dyer dau b. 1836/7, Wilts Mere
Lydia Jane, Dyer dau b. 1837/8 Kent Greenwich
Agnes Thompson Dyer dau b. 1839/40 Kent Greenwich
John Midlane[ Dyer/b] son b. 1841/2 Wilts Mere,
 
I have good information from 1841 onwards, but am intrigued to find out why the first and fourth children were born in Mere (John Jones Dyer was clerk to the Admiralty, as was his father so the family lived in Greenwich mostly) and what the significance of the middle name 'Midlane' is.
I do not know anything about their marriage or Theresa' Caroline's birth or surname.

Any info at all would be appreciated.

Cheers, judb

Tipperary / Tribberadora(?) Maher Dwyer McCarthy family
« on: Thursday 13 March 08 12:14 GMT (UK)  »
I have a Victorian (Australia) marriage certificate dated 1880 for Mary Maher b about 1859 in Tipp.  Her parents were Edmond (occ farmer) and Ellen Maher.  The handwriting for her birthplace is very hard to read but it looks like "Tribberadora", Tipperary.    I have tried Google, both maps and text and got no-where.

Mary Maher married Thomas Dwyer, son of Michael Dwyer and Ellen (Ellenore on another record) nee McCarthy.   Michael and Ellen were married in Greenane, Ireland, in 1836. They emigrated to Australia on the ship Lysander arriving in Melbourne in 1841.

Any information, or suggestions would be just great!

Thank you, thank you.

I am only a beginner in genealogy and it is fascinating.  The help I have had from this site is utterly amazing.  I thought I had tried IGI but obviously missed something somewhere along the way.

John Dyer is my 3x great grandfather; his grandson John Midlane Dyer emigrated to Australia iin 1871.

Once again - very many thanks!

England / John DYER
« on: Wednesday 05 March 08 08:11 GMT (UK)  »
I am searching for any information re birth, marriage and death of John DYER who was a clerk at The Admiralty from 1792, rising to be Chief Clerk from 1819-1832;  he had eight children born from 1796 to 1810 all baptised in Greenwich, one of his sons was Samuel Dyer, a missionary to China and Malaysia.  John is mentioned in a Wikipedia entry about Samuel,

I have been given a date for John's marriage with Eliza Seager at St Clement Danes, Westminster 4 Jan 1796 but another source quotes his wife's name as Lydia Eliza Shephard.  I have not yet tried to obtain ceertificates of hi marriage and cannot seem to find a death notification, nor an obituary.

I would be grateful for any information.

Thanks, judb

Goodness gracious!  Once again, thank you so much.  It is very good of you to bother with other people's ancestors.  I actually have an old postcard with Lydia Ffinch's writing on from an album of my mother's aunts' trip to UK and Europe in 1934 - Lydia must have lived to a ripe old age. 

I have always yearned for the kind of attics you read about in English fiction where old treasures may be found and my great-aunt's album has been my only passed down treasure in terms of genealogy.

Once again - many thanks.
