ASHBY Family
« on: Monday 07 January 13 11:30 GMT (UK) »
Hello looking for some help tracking this family. I have found some information on the trove site which someone had helped me with another branch of my family but I can only find a bit.
This is what I know from a newspaper clipping:
George Thomas Ashby died 13 march 1911 Auckland NZ Aged 69 he was a master Baker wife Lydia children Mrs Mourant, Melbourne, Mrs Bagley Newcastle, Mrs Kingham, Leichhardt, Mrs Ryder Auckland, Maud, George, Bert, Daisy and Violet.

Now for what I know from other sources and research
George Thomas Ashby m Lydia Trussel in England they had
Ruth 1881
Lillian Emma 1869 married John Francis Mourant
Maud Lydia 1870 died 1938 unmarried
Edward George b 1872
Cecilia Annie 1873
Herbert John 1875
Marion Mara 1877
Mary 1879
Violet Amy 1863
Daisy Ruth 1881
All born England but all went to Australia with parents when young I believe I can not find there names on any ships though.
Thank you any help appreciated.

1 of the children must have died before 1911 as the newspaper article only lists 9 children and they had 10 ?
