John NEWMAN & Family - Finmere House

Hi Aussie-Zebra

I presume your forebear is George Newman GINBEY b. 6 July 1865 @ Woodville. Is this correct?

John N  b. 1810 and Emily GINBEY were never married... (she was his housekeeper from about 1855). You will find that her children were cross registered as GINBEY and NEWMAN when born.

Good luck with the Newman Bank trail.

Ciao

Ahhh that's where the maid story comes in.

The Ginbey reference was dropped soon after that.

Yep George Ginbey Newman was my GGGF he and Eliza bought up my Mother as her parents couldn't afford to raise both due to the economic times of the 20's.

Her father was George Clifton Newman  B 08 Apr 1891 D 30 Mar 1965.

I'm making progress with John Newman
There where 2 banks  Manning, Newman, Ward & Ramsbottom, Newman and Co which along with a brewery collapsed due to the economy at the time.

He had six children 3 girls and 3 boys John Henry, Francis William and unknown

If John N was not the unknown son of John Newman then he must have been a nephew I think.

What happened to Josephine ?

I'm interested in the family of John Newman.  Do either of you have a tree they could share with me?

I'm convinced we're connected to the father of Cardinal Newman in some way, due to a series of coincidences, but have yet been unable to find anything.

I too have John Newman (1757-1820) in my family tree from his first marriage.  He is my gggg grandfather but I have yet to identify his wife.

Charles Newman was my Gggf. He was the second son of John Newman and Emily Ginbey. He married Isabella Manuel. He was a bank manager and unfortunately an alcoholic. His wife and children ended up in Victoria Australia. My gf was Arthur Garibaldi Newman. He married Ellen Anna Wright. He was a sawmiller and Timber merchant throughout Victoria and Tasmania. They had 5 children, Arthur John (Bill); Helen Winifred, Nancy Adele, Charles Albert (Peter) who died on HMAS Sydney WWII, and George William. Helen was my mother. I am interested in any information on John Newmans life in England prior to immigrating to Australia.
