Hi Anne I am not sure about the Walkers I have a William Walker married to Jane Antonia (possibly around 1863) when their daughter Margaret was born in 1863 in Ironbarks. It might be handy to have the article just in case? On the West side, I do have an Ernest J West born in Wellington 1891 but do not know when he died (although the parents are Frederick West and Margaret Walker) so this article looks very interesting, I would definitely like this one please. many thanks Sue ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anne Eccles" <ecclesfamily@cnn.net.au> To: <AUS-NSW-CENTRAL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, January 31, 2003 8:57 PM Subject: [NSW-C] NSW-C] "Whispers from Ironbarks" > Hi Sue > I have a copy of 'Branches from Ironbarks" by th Stuart Town Book committee. > In it is the family of George Walker bn 1809 in Gloucester United Kingdom. > He married Bridget Troys on 9.4.1837 at Parramatta.Their son William died at > Stuart Town on 29.12.1905.

Hi Rusheen, Thanks for getting that to me so quickly. Please do not go to the trouble of typing out that info for me I can check with the local library. If you happen to come across the names McPherson, Blackhall or Rayner in the areas I would love to hear about them.

Hi Rhonda, Welcome to the WHITICKER family. My husband's family-the Whitickers-,loaded with convicts (half their luck),were very strong in the Gundagai area.(research not done by me). George WHITICKER (9.10.1866 to 9.2.1922) married on the 17th April 1889 Emily FULLER-the third child of John and Sophia FULLER,nee Wright-witnesses Esther Whiticker (groom's brother) and John Fuller (bride's brother). Emily died 27 May 1898 and George remarried Eva ARANTZ from whom my husband descends. Jane WHITICKER (17.1.1859 to 9.8.1949) married on 17th Jan 1881 Irvine CRAIN (8.3.1852 to 6.8.1927) the fourth child of Thomas and Matilda CRAIN nee Lindsey who had arrived on the "Lobelia" in 1863.Irvine and Jane took up the Mt.Adrah Hotel. I have no doubt that there is a strong family link between your family and ours, Regards................Rusheen. > From: "Rhonda Turnbull" <raturn@dragnet.com.au> > Reply-To: AUS-NSW-CENTRAL-L@rootsweb.com > Date: Sat, 01 Feb 2003 21:12:53 +1100 > To: AUS-NSW-CENTRAL-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [NSW-C] CRANE John, Gundagai NSW > Resent-From: AUS-NSW-CENTRAL-L@rootsweb.com > Resent-Date: Sat, 1 Feb 2003 03:13:03 -0700 > > Would anyone be researching John CRANE (convict at Yass in 1837) m. > Mary FULLER in 1847? > > They settled in Gundagai NSW where they raised a large family. > > I am helping a friend with her family history. > > Regards, > Rhonda. >

In 1875 several newspapers were asked to write articles about their areas- these articles to be shown at the Melbourne-Philadelphia Exhibition.These included Mudgee,Riverina,Wellington and Wilcannia.The Wilcannia and Riverina articles are the ones that will come out later on NSW-WEST.Naturally since Wellington and Mudgee are well outside this area these articles will not be appearing. Since I have only recently found out that I have relatives at Wellington I knew nothing about the area.Therefore I found the Wellington article very interesting as it gave both the history and present ie 1875 details. If anyone would like a copy of the article I would be happy to forward it to you. Regards ................Rusheen.

I'm looking for descendents of James Barker and Emma Eliza Gough/Goff who settled at Stuart Town in 1856/7. . Sophia born 1856 married Dutfield Elizabeth born 1858 and Amelia born 1860 died young James born 1861 married Joanna Fisher Hannah born 1864 married Peter Edwards Frederick born 1866 married Alicia Dickerson John William (1868-1887) Minnie Emily born 1871 married John Dickerson. When James died in 1873 Emma married Samuel Smedley. The Smedley children were Esther, Henry and Emma, born 1874 to 1880 Other related families in Stuart Town were the Williamses, William and Elijah from Monmouthshire, Wales. cheers Helen

Hi Anne, Thanks for you help but with the help of a few list members, I have been able to identify which was my Thomas DICKERSON & unfortunately this was not him. I was put in touch with a lady at Stuart Town who had a copy of the book & read me the info over the phone. I have now obtained the death certificate of my Thomas DICKERSON who died at Mudgee in 1916 & it seems he had no family according to the certificate & no info on BDM's. Thanks again for your help.
