I am looking for descendants of James & Eva Emily Jones. James Jones was a blacksmith at Manildra from 1907 until 1912. They lived at 11 Kiewa Street. When James Jones died 1912 she sold the business to Jack & Cecil Hayes and did home sewing to support the family. In 1926 she moved to 12 Warne Street Wellington to be near her daughters Hilda & Nell. James is buried in the C of E section Meranburn cemetery, Eva died 1959 and is buried in the C of E section Wellington cemetery. Their descendants are: Hilda Isabella b 1900 m John J Dempsey 1928 Wellington (unconfirmed). Constance K b 1903 m Allen E Dennis 1925 Parkes (unconfirmed). Henry William b 1905 m Thelma P Blandford 1935 Orange (unconfirmed). Nellie Eileen b 1908 m Allan Charles Davey 1936 Wellington (unconfirmed). Walter Lyle b 1909. Elizabeth b 1912 d 1912. Thankyou for any help Robyn Jones

Hi Robyn I just looked up the Wellington Cemetery records which are online at http://www.interment.net/data/aus/nsw/orana/wellington/wellington_lawn/index .htm Here is what I found on Davey and Dempsey. There was a dress shop in Wellington that was owned by Dempsey and and known as Demspey's. I think that John may have been known as Jack Dempsey. Davey, Allan Charles, d. 20 Dec 1997, age: 87y, h/Nellie Eileen Davey, Nellie Eileen, d. 14 Feb 2001, age: 92y, w/Allan Charles Dempsey, Hilda I(sabel), d. 18 Jun 1985, age: 85y, w/John Dempsey, John, d. 15 Dec 1983, age: 81y, h/Hilda Isabel there may have been an obituary in the local paper wellington Times for Jack as he was well known. If you write to the Wellington Historical Society at PO box 281 Wellington NSW 2820 , the research officer will check the local paper for you. I think the cost is about $5.00 per person as they have to copy the article by hand to send to you. They may hold other information on the families. Their research fee is about $15.00 and I have found them to be excellent. I hope that this is of help to you.
