I have a birth record that has the place listed as PRNHURST.

Can anyone help with where this place is.

I don't want to buy the full birth certificate as I know all about this lady except where she was born.

Thanks for reading, thanks in advance for helping,

Cheers Ted

I am so confused 

HAYES AND HAYNES

WALKERDEN, WALKERDON, WALKENDON and WALKER

at least McGowan is right or is it - Ive found it spelt McGowen too.

3 weddings recorded, but more wives 

Not sure how many children?

Thank you everyone for helping with my confusion. I think I might be asking decendents for DNA on this one.

Yes there is 2 topics on this man I've added the links so you can read what is already known.

I received this message this morning and I am not sure the time line works. The person who sent me this message may just "wish" this is the father of the ancestors related to her.

The message is as written:
HI, I am researching my husbands great aunt Grace Beatrice Haynes. Seems she was married to Albert George Walkerden. But you do not seem to have her in your tree. Seems like it was a short marriage. He seems like a rouge, if family trees are right. My question is, When you say this he was also know as McGowan and married to both Isabella and Charlotte. Can you tell me how you know this? I have looked everywhere. 6 Oct 1911 Collingwood, Victoria, Australia Both Isabella and Charlotte gave evidence of marriage. Walkerdon also used the alias McGowan

So my timeline is that WALKERDEN married Annie HOOKER in 1891. They had 2 children and he deserted her somewhere around 1903-04.
In 1905 he married Isabella SMITHERS.
In 1904 he was in court because of a Miners claim - the court case was in Heidelberg.
According to the newspaper article dated Friday 21 July 1905 he lived with HOOKER until May 20 Last* and left her to marry another as Frederick George McGOWEN on 20 July 1905.

If he fitted Grace Beatrice HAYNES in the middle of these 2 marriages he was a fast worker. Help needed - its doing my head in.

Thanks for all the previous help from everyone, cheers Ted.

*Not sure if "Last" means the same year or the previous year.

Does anyone think this is a co-incidence.

I have just found an article that is pretty close to the entry for James DAVIDSON in the book of Cando's mums. VICTORIA AND IT'S METROPOLIS.

The entry in the book states:- "Prior to this he had undergone much hardshop, having been wrecked in the brig Caroline Leslie in Lagoon Bay."

Caroline. Barque, 157 tons. Lbd 74-9 x 21-8 x 5 ft. Built at Chittagong, India, 1821; reg. Hobart 7/1830, 1/1838, 14/1842. Ashore, wrecked, in a gale at Lagoon Bay on the Forestier Peninsular, Tasmania, 2 October 1843. No lives lost.  On 10 December 1839, under Captain Edward Woodin, stranded off Swan Island, Tasmania, while on a voyage from Hobart for Melbourne; refloated after part of her cargo was discharged and continued on her voyage.

Yes I know and after much reading the dates of the DAVIDSONS in Eden don't co-inside with the DAVIDSON's in other places.

As I said it was a family story and I never trust family stories.
