Hi Ambers,

I'm sure those two Eddys are tied up to the Uren family.  I have a hunch and I am going to check it out LOL.  Just call me Corny Detective. ;D

Apparently the Botheras children from Elizabeth Eddys previous marriage, all went to the USA.

Hi CP

Oh lol, maybe they are with my Gold Mining rellies Nicholas Thomas and Richard Eddy...I will leave it up to Detective Constable ;D CornishPasty to sort out.

I have  traced a Witness to Richard Eddy's b1871-- marriage in 1898 to Eliza Jane Thomas b1874.

Margaret Matthews formerly Ninnis, her mother was Mary Eddy b1842, I guess there will be a few to choose from ::) ::)

Happy hunting...Hugs Ambers

LOL Ambers.  Too funny. ;D

I guess that's good news about finding the witness because every tiny bit of information is another piece of the puzzle.  Have made a note to include that little snippet. ;)

Let's hope we can find this elusive Richard. ;D

Hi all and a Happy New Year :D! Have just discovered that a relative left Cornwall at some time after 1901 and died in Johannesburg in 1937. His name was Samuel James Trebell Stuthridge, a blacksmith, and he probably travelled with his wife Helena and son Horace. Can´t find any trace of him in any of the Passenger Lists I´ve been able to access and I´m sure he didn´t walk there! Can anyone help?

Regards
