Crawford Gaol aka Wellington Prison - and an incorrigible rellie

Hi Carol

... do you know if Timothy had a sister who lived in Victoria AUS, say around 1914 to 1918

Cheers

Well done both!

I know Lu

Knowing the childhood history, it is no wonder he has emotional/behavioural issues.  But throughout it all, he seemed to remain non-violent and continued to struggle with his obviously all encompassing addiction(s). 

I suppose on the plus side, he survived much longer than I would have anticipated given his life story and struggles.

Thanks Jo! 

I am very happy to have put Tim back into the family history... despite his struggles, he deserves to be there and, hopefully, viewed with empathy:)

Lu - I don't know, but give me a bit to run a check on the sister's.

Thanks mckha

... but you helped too ... every comment and snippet contributed, "is grist to the mill".

Lu, as far as I know there were 5 sister's and they are all accounted for in NZ

Thanks Carol.   

I'll have to try another angle with my continuing "investigation .   

[As at 1938 - I've found four daughters in Johanna MURPHY's Will. ]

This is what I have...just not sure of a couple of their marriage details which I have been working on.

One of the daughter's mother's name is spelled incorrectly which may be an issue.  But I know she existed and was the oldest (Annie)

Murphy   
Annie 1879/5808   Johannah   Daniel    (The mother's name should be Johanna)
Johanna Ellen 1887-1955 1887/1526
Florence “Florie” 1888-1962  1889/17900   tbc
Catherine Mary Josephine 1883-1936    1883/694
Margaret Agnes 1892-1975  1892/10285

Catherine Mary would have died by 1938...

They'd record his death under his birth name right?
