Ros,
Thank you so much for your prompt reply, I am only just organizing the info I have from Australia, I am searching my genealogy and interested in any relatives who may be alive maybe a separate thread might be more convenient for me as I am new to this chat forum, I would be grateful for any suggestions to make it easier for me.
I have tentative plans for next year to visit Bourke, Goulburn and Wagga Wagga also some other towns associated with my family.
I believe maybe Kristy may be related as she mentioned some info was hers.

many thanks
Douglas






 
hello Douglas,
  Welcome to rootschat  :)

  Do you need any help with your research or are you just wanting to contact relatives.   If you do need help then it is probably better to have a separate thread.  I could ask a moderator to split this off.
 
  If you see any probate files for your NSW ancestors http://investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/ or other files at NSW State Archives  http://www.records.nsw.gov.au/  then I can photograph these for you.

regards,
   Ros

Bourke (NSW) Cemetery Look-up

John HYAMS, possibly listed as HIJAMS, Buried 1872.
Not sure if the cited age on Findagrave as 42 is accurate.
A John HYMAS I am looking for would have been 82. A post exists regarding his transportation in 1838

There are death notices for the John HYAMS who died 1872 and buried at Bourke Cemetery in the newspapers on TROVE. You can also trace his family in Victoria.

Thank you Merlin, so the John Hyams who died  In Bourke 1872 was allegedly a Mason, possibly from Victoria. I haven't found any specific recods from Victoria yet
