STuck for 10 years any clues?

Thanks

My mother looked at the film of that baptism for me and found it also contained a birth date, it made her around age 8 at marriage. Her granddaughter marries at age 14 but 8 just seems too unlikely.
If it were not for the age she is a  good possibility in other ways. John Rabbitt and Charlotte Johnston's second son Robert marries a Helen Adams. A descendant told me that he looked at his grandfather as he was dying and was surprised to notice that he was an aboriginal man. He believes it was the Adams family that were probably aboriginal.

Hi

There is a Charlotte JOHNSON registered in NSW in 1849 parents: James & Maria

Hi Debbie

It seems there is an error somewhere. If she was baptised in 1852, she would have to be 9 or 10 as a minimum in 1862.

Jenni's find looks possible also - but the odds are probably still with the option that there are no surviving records from that time.

Good luck

I have not seen the Charlotte Johnson 1849 one before, I think I'll get a transcription for  that one and hope it contains some information.

Hi Debbie,

I am interested if you have made any progress with John Johnstone & Sarah Adams. I have recently discovered the identity of my deceased mothers birth parents and I am trying to trace her family tree back and have come to the same block that you did on her mothers side. Sadly it is worse on her fathers side as it appears that she was born our of wedlock to an unknown father.

If you have any information you can share, I would be very interested.

I am now trying to use dna matches to find Charlotte Johnston’s parents. One possible match to descendants of Philip Devine but more required to confirm.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Wow! This sounds difficult. I have been using DNA too but not getting far. If I come accross anything I will let you know.
