William GOODALL (1809-1885) and Helen BALDOCK (1811-1895)
« on: Sunday 25 November 12 04:06 GMT (UK) »
Hi there,

Any information on the family of William (born in Willey, Shrewsbury, England,) and Helen (born in Edinburgh, Scotland) - both Tasmanian convicts who eventually settled in the Warrnambool area of Victoria, Australia.

Hello
Ancestry has a  number of family trees mapping out William Goodall and Ellen Baldock, including all children born to this couple.

William arrived via 'Lady Harewood' transported for life July  1828 .
served 12 years upon Conditional Pardon.

Married Cambelltown TAS October 1836

PROV has a will and probate digitised.
Occupation was farmer at death.
probated to Ellen and Thomas Goodall March 1885. Search via name, click on links and download of original copies.

TROVE may have references to family in Warrnambool area.

Tasmania archives also has good links to convict details, including permission to marry registers.

Were you  searching for more specific information not yet known on ancestry?

Cheers

Hi AB
I wonder if you could let us know exactly what information you are particularly seeking.

Perhaps you already have some details and it would not be helpful for searchers to present them again.

Not everyone has access to Ancestry ::)

May I suggest you have a browse through the Resources Board for Australia and each State individually.    I treat online trees with caution unless well referenced and all sources noted.  So many are simply copied and pasted, errors included.

To start your research you can search for Tasmanian information including links to digitised convict records here
http://portal.archives.tas.gov.au/menu.aspx?search=5

The Tasmanian bdm's are not online although there are transcribed records on the above link.

Hello,
Ancestry is available on a 14 day free trial and most major genealogical  libraries will have free access for patrons.

Another child born to William and Ellen was Henry born 1848 Warracknabeal died 1885 New Zealand.
All children of this couple are verified on ancestry family trees, you will also find lovely photos of your William and Ellen in later years.

Cando, I am able to access most full  TAS BDM's up to 1900'  if you require specific information re place of marriage and death, occupations, cause of deaths, witness to marriages etc let me know.

Regards
Eileen

Hi Eileen

Knowing Cando as an old (in the nicest way :)) member of the forum, she probably won't need further access to Ancestry records then she already has. She, like many here,  uses original indexes in conjunction with  full access to the Ancestry files .
 
There is quite a trend lately to call  " family history research" something  which one has found on ancestry .

Compounded errors are now beginning to prevail because of  the copying of one tree to another and many of these come from Ancestry and, on close examination, many assertions of relationship do not hold up.

Anyhow, we can all wait now for A B to let us know where his searching has got him to date. ;D

Hi Sue,   

Too right  :D.

You misread my post, I have advised that I have full access to TAS BDM records, not to be confused  with one the   indexes that only contain partial information of BDM up to 1900 in Tasmania. 
I am happy to share with newer researchers to help anyone who requires further information from TAS archives, may as well save money from paying for information where possible.  It concerns me that many people are paying for  and receiving incorrect information, sourced from dubious trees  from ancestry.
I would not dream of charging my private clients for any research or information unless they are entirely happy with results and I am 100 percent happy with all data verification.
 :)
Cheers

Ancestry have purchased many Australian records which are available freely from other sources. 

Thank you but I don't require information from the Tasmanian bdm's.

I would suggest the compiler/s of the family tree/s read a little about the development and history of the Colony of Victoria and refer to the abbreviations of Victorian towns on the Victorian BDM indexes. 

Baptism - variation of the spelling of GOODALL.
GODDALL Henry
Father William  Mother Helen
Birth place - Warrnambool [WARR] 1849  Reg#8594
Denomination Presbyterian  Parish Pyrenees and Port Fairy  Fiche#170

Your clients may be 'happy' but how would your clients know there are errors such as a place of birth?  There is an error with Henry's place of birth.  I wonder if the author of the tree bothered to purchase any certificates.   Perhaps I am too particular but I don't subscribe to the advertising slogan 'you don't have to know what you are looking for, you just have to start looking' ::)
