HUGHES family look up [ ballarat]
« on: Tuesday 25 September 12 14:18 BST (UK) »

If you come across any information at all about a Martha [ nee Follard] and Frederick Hughe's family ,  it would be so appreciated . I know they married in 1866 and had 7 children . Can't find any census records on these parents .

Their daughter Emma married a John Matsen and had 2 daughters .I don't know what became of this man .
Also I can't find if Emma's daughter Leila married or had children or when she died.

Thanks for any help that may come !

Here is the index entry for the marriage

Marriage, Victoria
1866 #3092
Martha FOLLARD
Frederick  HUGHES


For about $20 you can download the certificate for the marriage which should give you information about the parents of the couple - assuming they gave them correctly.

There is also this marriage which I happened to notice.  It's a long shot but maybe two sisters married within a couple of years of each other?  Would need to be verified by certificate, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Marriage, Victoria
1868 #3447
Charlotte Sophia FOLLARD
George HUGHES

It seems as though these are two sisters.  I see the following births all registered in Tasmania, with the same parents

1844  Sarah Elizabeth FOLLARD, parents: John, Maria Feans; reg Launceston, Tasmania
1847  Martha FOLLARD,              parents: John, Maria Feans, reg    Longford, Tasmania
1849  M FOLLARD,                      parents John, Maria Fens, reg   Longford, Tasmania
1850   F FOLLARD,                     parents: John, Maria Fines; Longford, Tasmania
1852  Caroline Sophia FOLLARD, parents: John, Maria Feanes;   Longford, Tasmania

Tasmanian archives have a convict application to marry for John FOLLARD and Maria FEANES, 1842.  Both seem to have been convicts - John arriving per ship John , and Maria per Rajah.

There is also an outward passage for John FOLLARD, free by servitude, originally arrived per ship John.  The passage in 1852 is from Launceston to Melbourne.

Will have a look for convict indents.  Judith
