Hi Neil .... now that's really interesting that the John Chandler who died at Warialda in 1859 was a 'Drover'.  All I now need to find out if it was the same John Chandler who married Alice White in 1856 ... hopefully someone has access to the Scone Parish Records and be able to tell me.  Bonnie
PS Off to visit my elderly parents, will be back on line this afternoon

Hi fordson,

Welcome to RChat from me too ..... Like Ros, I am NOT watching State of Origin       

May I please ask about those 1920s records you mention as showing your Grandfather at Bolton St, Newcastle ....   I am interested to know what type of records they are ... are they private papers, or are they official records?

Many cheers,  JM (NSW centric, always fascinated in any type of NSW official record)....

Hi Fordson ... Welcome to Rootschat ... many thanks your message re Ellen Burke.  At present I am travelling and unable to check my ancestral chart but from memory, my Ellen Holmes formerly Burke/ Chandler blah blah blah died in the early 1890's in Leadville, near Gulgong, NSW.
Will get back to you in the next day or so.  Bonnie
PS  Hey hey Ros, nice to hear from you

Hi Fordson
Unfortunately your Helen/Ellen Burke and mine are not the same person.  Mine born circa 1834, to possible parents James Burke and Ellen Walsh who married 1834 in Bathurst but no birth registration found under those names.  Or James Welch and Ellen nee Kain (though no marriage found for them yet in NSW) and baptised Sydney 1835, 17 Nov.

Helen/Ellen resided in Newcastle from around 1864 (when her third child was born) until no later than 1874 when her sixth child was born in Gulgong.  I have her death certificate but unfortunately no parents names shown and it only stated she was born in the 'New England' district of NSW and 57 years of age when she died on 05 May 1893.

Thanks again for making contact.  Good luck with your research.  Bonnie

Hi there,

I am not a relative, just an RChatter who has previously contributed to this thread.   May I pass the following info onto fordson 105, and hope this helps he and his great uncle, as I hope I am finding the ‘right’ Noel Andrew BURKE for them.   May I gently note that if I have found their chap then the NSW BDM records do not seem to include any info about Noel Andrew BURKE’s father.   

1930 Electoral Roll, for NEWCASTLE  NSW
Noel Andrew BURKE, salesman, 62 Bolton St, NEWCASTLE.
Ellen BURKE, home duties, 62 Bolton St NEWCASTLE


My inscriptions offline resource has :

The website has Noel Andrew Aloysius, aged 68, burial 10 Oct 1972 and the plot no as above.

The NSW BDM online index has a birth registration for a Noel A BURKE in 1904 at Newcastle.  His mother’s given name is indexed as Mary E.  His father’s name is not displayed.   The Ref No. is 34829

The NSW BDM online index has a death registration for Noel Andrew BURKE, in 1972.  The ref no. 67848.  The index has his age as 68 years, and his mother as Mary Ellen.  The death was registered in the Newtown district.

Google newspapers archives has The Sydney Morning Herald (under ‘S’)   http://news.google.com/newspapers
Look for Tuesday 10 Oct 1972 edition of The Sydney Morning Herald, and then notice that page 22 of 9 Oct 1972 is on the left hand side of Tuesday’s front page.   Page 22 has the deaths and funerals notices for Noel BURKE.

If this info is for fordson's Noel BURKE, then perhaps a new thread could be hived off from this one.  Fordson, if you would like RChatters to help you research some more for your Noel, please do let us know and one of us will contact a moderator to request some assistance behind the scenes.  Of course, if you want help with any of your ancestors, please do consider starting a new topic and asking for help that way.

You will find RChat is a great place for receiving help.  Here's the "How to" thread
