Hello Listers, I am new to the list and am researching the above name. My G grandmother ALICE BRENNAN was born 18/2/1853 Mudgee (extracted from family bible). She married James Alexander STEWART in August 1877. Her birth place and parents were not stated on her marriage certificate. Alice died June 1935 in Trangie. On her death certificate it states that she was born in Mudgee to parents Richard Brennan & Margaret Owens. My problem is I have been unable to locate her birth or the marriage of her parents. Searching the NSW BDM online I found a birth for Alice A to parents Richard E & Margaret in 1853 but the surname was MUTTON. I than did a search and found a marriage for Richard Brennan to Margaret Murphy in 1847 District listed as LG. Could this be them? I realise that her birth might not have been registered and that her parents marriage might also not have been registered since civil registration didn't start until 1856, or if they even got married (who knows). If someone on the list could point me in the direction of parish records or anything that can help me locate these ancestors, I would be very grateful. Also if any of the above names ring a bell with anyone, I would love to hear from you. Thanks in advance Cheers Judy Brisbane
