The Common Room / Roger Percy - migration COMPLETED (I think)
« on: Monday 18 May 09 06:32 BST (UK)  »
Born 1816 Devon, UK - died 1898 Melbourne Victoria.      Migrated about 1856/7 but , though we can find his family, we can't find Roger.  Does anyone have any information about his migration please - date, ship, to - from.   Very experienced people have been looking but you never know - someone out there may have the answer.    ;)
(Wife Louisa, children Bessie, Kate, Blanche, Clifton -  migrated on 'James Baines' in 1857 with brother James Frederick Hynes, and his family.)

Dumfriesshire / Lanarkshire : Cumming/Cunningham
« on: Sunday 17 May 09 02:55 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for the parents and children of Jack Cumming and Annie Bell Cunningham who either come from Dumfriesshire or Glasgow and that area.

Jack born 1883 -  in Scotland
Annie Bell Cunningham born 1880, died 1925 (in Rutherglen maybe)

Their eldest child was Euphemia Crawford Cumming who married William John Pearson in Rutherglen in 1932.  They subsequently emmigrated to Australia in 1949.

Any information would be gratefully received - I am having trouble going further as I don't know any family names and the Scottish system is hard to access from here.

Australia Lookups completed / COMPLETED Thank you>Gertrude Mary BROWN/Athelston Manifold BURKE
« on: Saturday 16 May 09 02:54 BST (UK)  »
  COMPLETED - MANY THANKS
Can anyone help please.

Gertrude Mary Brown, born 1874 in Victoria Australia, had a child 'Athelston Manifold  - '  in New Zealand in 1904.  She subsequently married Richard Herbert Burke in Victoria Australia in 1907.  Athelston is listed as 'Burke' on her death certificate in 1915, with three later children.    He appears in electoral rolls later, and is in family memory.

I can't find out any more about him - any ideas please?   Birth date? - parents?  etc, etc.
