Thanks Rosie99 and Osprey, I had 1757 as John's birth year but not the baptism. I also had Digory and Elizabeth as his parents but not Elizabeth's surname. so thanks again. A shame about the gap in parish records, I had similar trouble with Gloucestershire records where a Parish Minister failed to record BDM'S for a period of time. It is always quite a few bricks in that Genie Wall when that happens. regards,

Cornwall / Ackerly/Ackerley of Mabe & dubock
« on: Sunday 19 July 20 13:18 BST (UK) »
Hello all, I am trying to find the connection between 2 Ackerly/Ackerley families that both had descendants that found their way to Australia (not as convicts 
). The first is John Ackerly born about 1757 at Mabe, Cornwall. The second is Edward Ackerly born about 1749 also at Mabe. John married Elizabeth Geach and Edward married 1. Mary Nicholas 2. Margaret Kestle. John and Elizabeth had 14 children and Edward and Mary had at least 6 children and Edward and Margaret had one known child.
Both John and Edward had an Elizabeth, Martha, Mary, Digory/Diggory, William and Jenefer. John's son William brought his family to Tasmania then Victoria. And Edward's son Edward Jnr brought his family to Victoria. William lived in Nth East Vic. and Edward in Western Victoria. The connection between John and Edward Sen. seems almost certain, but the connection is too early to be traced through the English Census'. I am not seeking details of their family members after the connection, but I hope someone can reveal, through Parish Records or some such other resource, how they were connected. Fingers crossed,

It's interesting that the Rapley's were active in the Horsham, Sussex, district which is where Joseph Pyke married Mary. She may have known the Rapleys back in England ? Although she was only 12 when Daniel arrived in NSW and she arrived NSW in 1828, 10 years after Daniel. A small world even then.

Hi Rappers,
Yes, there is a letter "R" on Joseph's convict indent & back in the 80's when I copied it at the Hobart Archives, I asked the lady at the counter what the "R" meant. She said I was very lucky to be standing there, as it meant "Reprieved from death".
I had never associated Daniel Rapley with the "Gang". I still do not know what became of Mary after being refused permission to be married.
Cheers Bob

Hi, My source for Mary Huntly is her marriage to Joseph Pyke at Horsham, Sussex, Eng.
26 Dec 1826. This is on Ancestry and gives their source as England Select Marriages 1538 - 1973 FHL film No. 1041543 Item 3 P116. Also on Ancestry is her baptism as Mary Huntley bap 23 April 1806 parents John and Mary. I am always open to any other ideas that may prove her to be another Mary.
Do you have proof of the Mary Ann Overy being the right one?
Cheers, Bob

Gloucestershire / Re: Sarah Poole 1901 census

Thanks Capetown, you have certainly been busy. I have had Samuel and Hannah from Stroud as possible Parents of my Samuel along with John Pool and Mary (Rodway) - Seems she was a naughty girl. I suspect the Thomas Pool of Pitchcomb is an uncle of my Samuel??
I may never get proof of who his parents are but will enter all your info onto a common timeline spreadsheet along with my own info and keep adding until something gels.
Thanks for letting me know the sources you have used. Written in the USL Church Register is "It appears that there was no entry kept by the minister of Baptisms and Burials from the year 1774 to the year 1783". So other sources are invaluable.

Thanks Capetown, Yes, that is my Samuel, and I believe the Pitcombe Pool family will be related because of the land at Upton St Leonards, but connecting them to my known Samuel is proving very frustrating. Records are sparse in the latter part of the 1700's for that area. There is a John Pool and Mary Pool (Rodway) who had a Wiliam in USL also. Connecting Samuel up to his elusive parents is a real problem. Many thanks for your efforts.
