Death - Orange NSW - William BURTON

[majm]

Hi there,

If that's Susan's right year of birth, then her m.c. should show who gave consent to her marrying William Burton, because she was not yet 21  .  Have you contacted the tree owner on the submitted tree at Ancestry to check what document that info comes from?

Cheers,  JM

Well Done Merlin

Congratulations, I am so relieved, my thinking cap has been working overtime.

The National Library of Australia has this re their holdings for Presbyterian Church, Carcoar:

Thanks JM, I think it might be St James in Carcoar with Reverend James Adams as that was the Presbyterian church from around 1861.

And, of course, the quarterly returns for the civil registration may have been lost before they even got to Sydney .... The Gold Escorts carried the Mail, and the bushrangers wanted the gold, so often they took everything ...  Presuming of course that there was actually someone recording the births in that district, but many government employees may have quit to seek their own fortunes on the goldfields.

I have been trying to figure out if a Captain Gennys may have been another spelling variation for this family

Hi, Have just noticed this thread.  You probably have it all solved, but in case not, Susannah Jenner, who married William Burton 1878 in Orange was born 4 Feb 1862 at Kings Plains, Blayney to James Jenner and Philadelphia nee Harvey - V18625043 121 B (they are our ancestors, too). Family researcher has been to Blayney and looked up the old records.  Susannah died 27 Mar 1884 in childbirth.#12835

You have been talking about some of the early arrivals of my family.

Isaac JENNER (1827-1894), the son of John Jenner, was born in England in 1827. He married Philadelphia Wicks (1830 - 1914) in England circa 1852, the marriage producing eight children.  He died at Uralla, New South Wales, Australia in 1894. 
Isaac Jenner came out to Australia on the Meteor" in 1853 with his wife Philia.

Philadelphia was the daughter James (1805 in England - 1888 in NSW) and Eliza Jane MANVILLE (c.1791 - 1842 in England)

In 1854 most of the family went to Australia, Sydney on the Tantivy, some of Philadelphia's siblings stayed in Lewes.

They were Philadelphia's father , stepmother Frances PAGE (c.1805 England- 1877 in NSW) , brothers John (1836 - 1916) and Abraham (1838 - 1908), sister Eliza (1839 - 1915), step brother Israel (1850 - 1854) who died at sea and sister Phoebe (1844 - 1934).

Philadelphia's brother John is my great grandfather.
