    3. Hi everyone, I'm just wondering if this is the correct list for the Grafton area please? I'm looking for any info about the descendants of William Edward VINCENT and his wife Anne Sophia. This is a little about his occupation in Grafton. I'd like to find out about his descendants. snip>>> In June 1859 he established a weekly newspaper, the Clarence and Richmond Examiner , in Grafton, northern New South Wales. As in Wellington (NZ) he sought to support the commercial community rather than the pastoralists, but his principal backer disapproved and early in 1861 the Examiner was sold off. A few months later Vincent began the Clarence and Richmond Independent , which was barely established when he died at Grafton on 22 November 1861. His two eldest sons, Henry (aged 14) and Frank (nearly 12), continued the paper, the first of many Vincent-owned newspapers in the district.<<< If anyone has news, obits etc about Henry, Frank or others with the surname Vincent, I'll love to hear from you.I'm doing this research for a friend, her g/g/g.m was Anne Sophia VINCENT. Many thanks and ,-._|\ best wishes, / Oz \ jill , brisbane. \_,--.x/ jmglover@tpg.com.au v

    3. Jill I'm not sure how common a name Vincent is but there are a couple of Vincents on our CD of Mining Leases in the New England area.
