Annie MAULE Scotland to Australia

[tedscout]

Ok I have spent the morning revising my information and I now think Marjory Annie and Daniel are McNabs who took on Edward Browns name when Annie set up house with him - oh how confusing.

If it wasn't for Debra I wouldn't know anything  Ted

Hi Ted,

You will find young Daniel buried at Ballaarat.

Hello everyone

I think I may be the person you have all been trying to contact. I am a great great granddaughter of Isabella Goudheur who married William Henry Day. I posted some research initially on Genforum in the hope that someone could help.

I have been looking for a death for both Edward Brown(e) and John McNab for a very long time. I was unable to find a marriage record in Alloa, Clackmannan for John McNab to Anne Brown. They had several children in Scotland before coming out to Australia.

I truly believe that Anne was never married to Edward Browne however I have a funny feeling that John McNab may have took off and left Annie. I also think that Edward might also have taken off.  I also was given a death date of 1898 by relatives in WA but cannot find him in the victorian idexes and have also checked all of the inquests for that time. Of course this can't be proven until we locate all the death certificates which might never happen. She then married Henry Goedheer and then he took off and married Catherine Marie Jones. I wonder what Annie must have been like to live with! There are death notices for Annie in the Bendigo Advertiser and I have found a death notice for John Brown (Isabella's brother) in the Melbourne Argus, John died on the 13th february 1946. However it didn't say where.

As to Alexander Maule, Annie's father, he died in Alloa in a brewery accident. He went into a room that was very hot with steam and was scalded. He died a couple of days later. This came from a newspaper report of the time.

I have been given some early photographs, they are not named but they came from a Day family collection. One I am sure is Annie and (going by the dating info) I think Henry Goudheur. It looks like a wedding photo. Another is an early photo and I think it might be John McNab with young Daniel aged about 2-3. It is really too early to be anyone else.

Look forward to hearing what everyone else has to say.

Hi Ted, great to hear back from someone at last. Isabella Goudheur (Browne) was my great great grandmother. She married William Henry Day at Whroo on June 6, 1878. At that stage Henry Goudheur was listed as her father but her real father was Edward Brown (e). Really not sure about the (e). Isabella was born at Talbot on 1 March 1860 but her birth does not appear to have been registered, possibly as Annie & Edward were not married.

I have rechecked the shipping too, the ships name was "Bourneuf" not Bourneup. Obviously whoever was transcribing got confused with the curly end of the writing.

Look forward to sharing notes. Cheers Tania

Also forgot to say that I have documentation and newspaper reports, shipping lists, obituaries etc. Am happy to share but am unsure how to share email addresses. I am on Facebook though so you could request through that I guess???
