Yes Newbe I do have the BDM cd's, but they are online for free here & have recently been updated:

https://www.bdm.qld.gov.au/IndexSearch/BirIndexQry.m

I have to go out this afternoon, but I will PM send you a lot of links to the families so you can read the history on them as soon as I get time.

Seems as though your family married into the Binstead, Howard, Hollindale, Thomas, Fowler & Bozier.

That's a few names for you to follow up in the meantime.

Thanks so much for your help
I have to go to work later as well so will have a look at all you send me later on.

Thank you so much for your help.


it took me abt 20 minutes to narrow down Maria Binstead's birth to 9 June 1844 so it will be a hard slog but it will work out in the end :D

Also married into Hughes, Hore, Phipps, Harris, Andreson
Now the Anderson one is interesting.
Jane Donald married Edward Anderson
This is from a cousin

Quote
Edward Ned Blanchfield changed his name to Blanchfield Anderson as his parents were Convicts the name subsequently became Anderson It is believed that Ned was a Mayor of Allora in the Warwick Shire of Queensland and his marriage at Canning Downs Station was one of the first in the Darling Downs region.

As promised I have just PM'd you a HUGE amount of information on your familes as it would take me forever to cut & paste then transcibe everything & post it here for you!

So as you sort through them if you have any blanks or questions just ask...

Hi Newbe ;D

Still plodding along ;) ;D

A link to lots of info - including photos of graves
http://www.chapelhill.homeip.net/FamilyHistory/Photos/Upper_Coomera-Gold_Coast/index.php

Newbe always a good idea to google any cemeteries names or names of family you are researching as we are not permitted to cut and paste information from other websites and it does take time to transcribe.

Cheers ;D
