Hi Tobias
Have sent you a personal message. I am only too happy to share, but I have a fair bit of info which would be easier to send in a word doc. I'm really excited about this. So many people have helped me so often. I like to be able to pay it on when I can.
Regards
Wren

Hi Tobias
Here's some info to be going on with. Eva's father was Robert Murphy. Lived Bungendore Labourer aged 55. eva was 19 at the time of Eva's birth. This information is not on any certificate. It was written in light pencil in the original Clerk of Petty sessions record. I saw this some years ago now.
Regards
Wren

Hi, was trying to send a personal message but seems I am not allowed. Wow, I have been trying for months to find out who Eva’s father was. So Robert Murphy was 55 at time of Eva’s birth. Any other info on him at all? Nationality?

Hi Tobias
Now you have posted again you should be able to send a PM, I think. I have also tried to find Robert Murphy, no luck as yet. But I haven't given up trying. I'll have another look now that you have reinsured me. I just need to find another angle. I looked up electoral registers to no avail. eva was baptised at St Stephen's Mittagong at the age of 9. I can't seem to find it online. I will go back to the historical society and look at these registers again. She was baptised at the same time as her sister Jane, had her illegitimate son baptised. Catherine and William Dowling also raised this son. wow, it must have been a full house.
I hope we are able to connect.

Hi Thanks Maddie.
I hope its soon as I would really like to share the certs and info that I have. Some years ago I tried to contact someone who had posted about Eva on Ancestry but had the information that must have been on Eva's marriage or death certs. Sadly, I did not receive a reply. Elizabeth's sister Jane also had a son before she married and that family was also disbelieving. The incorrect spelling of the marriage surname also didn't help. It was a shame really because it is what it is. We can't sit in judgement of our ancestors as we didn't have to face their challenges and we don't know how we would have reacted given the same circumstances.

Hi

Rookwood General now have a deceased search on their website, which indicates that Eva and William are buried in the same grave, I cannot find them on the Rookwood Disc, however when you zoom down to the grave site I "think" I can see a headstone

Hi Cass
Thanks. I will explore a little further. Although why William is buried at Rookwood is a bit out of left field because he died in Bowral. Unless they moved him when Eva died. As the rest of the immediate family had moved to Sydney by then this would make perfect sense. 
Tobias and I were  able to connect and I have sent him my information. I think sharing when possible is such an important part of what we do. Its also very exciting.
Thanks again
Wren
