Phyllis, I am not sure if you know of the NSW Births Deaths and Marriages site: http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/ There are no birth listings (up to 1905). There are three wedding entries: 1. Ernest SIDGREAVES to Elsie M BRUCE at Sydney in 1926 Reg #4903 2. Harry SIDGREAVES to Grace HOLLAND 1930 Randwick #14940 3. Harold to Madeline HOARE at Sydney 1935 Reg#64 There are seven deaths including Harry & Grace's and two others in that area 1. Mary SIDGREAVES (parents George & Sarah) in 1925 #166181 (think this is your Harold's mother) 2. Harold Paling SIDGREAVES 1964 #14268 (parents John & Mary) Another at Newtown- not too far from Rockdale & may be your Harold's father. 1. John Thomas SIDGREAVES 1938 #18342 (76 years in Erskineville which is next to Newtown -both inner suburbs of Sydney & near the family business at Redfern) The two others are for Katoomba in the Blue Mountains -around 90 minutes from Sydney (and not close to Rockdale of Sutherland in the Southern suburbs of Sydney). They appear to be your Harold's brother son and his wife. 1. Elsie Maud SIDGREAVES d at Katoomba 1954 #25771 2. Ernest d at Katoomba 1967 #10304 Kind regards, Julia Wollongong NSW

Phyllis wrote..... Harry and Grace Constance (nee Holland) SIDGREAVES - Randwick, Rockwell and Sutherland areas NSW Would any readers be related to or know anything about this couple, or their family, please? Hi there Phyllis, You are in luck!!! The SIDGREAVES have a well established & highly regarded family business in shopfitting (interior fitouts of businesses) which still operates in Sydney today and is run by the fifth generation of SIDGREAVES. They are the family you are looking for. There were three brothers who worked with the original company in Redfern (inner suburb of Sydney)including your Harold. Harold's son Bryan became a company director when his father died in 1963 and then when his Uncle Ernest died a few years later he became the Managing Director. There is a company website with pictures and contact details. http://www.sidgreaves.com/content1024/history/index.html Also a picture of your Harold standing outside the company building taken by his son Bryan at: http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:Hy9Va7OSG9AJ:www.oph.gov.au/itp.asp% 3Faction%3Ddetail%26ID%3D212+sidgreaves <http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:Hy9Va7OSG9AJ:www.oph.gov.au/itp.asp %3Faction%3Ddetail%26ID%3D212+sidgreaves&hl=en&gl=au&ct=clnk&cd=7> &hl=en&gl=au&ct=clnk&cd=7 I hope this helps.

Hello Julia, Thank you so very much for all the information that you have sent me. There is quite a lot of information to sift through. I have started the follow up on your information. Very kind regards. Phyllis

Hello Listers, I'm looking for any information relating to the surname MAMMATT. Some background - My father, George MAMMATT, a young (25) architect from Manchester, disembarked from SS Persic in Victoria in 1913. The next point at which I have him is in 1918 as an assistant to architect Ernest R LAVER in Cootamundra, NSW. He went back to England to marry in 1920, returning with his wife (my mother) at the end of 1920. He remained in Cootamundra until his death in 1940. My particular interest in George MAMMATT during the period 1913 to 1918 and in any MAMMATTs at all up to 1950. All suggestions appreciated. Bob MAMMATT Melbourne. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.1.409 / Virus Database: 268.13.32/523 - Release Date: 7/11/2006

Hello Marg I don't know if this will be of help to you but while I was looking for my Holliday family I found entries on Rootsweb.com on The Price/Pow/Jurd/Farr Home Page listed by Leonie Price, this was in 2003 so I don't know if they are still on board so to speak. Good Luck Marilyn

Dear Gloria, This is not the actual line I am following. Your Charles James born 1865 does not match. However, I noticed the name Percy in the line. This occurs in the family of a brother of William Earl's. I am forwarding this email to Ranald (Rannie) Blanchard in Nova Scotia to see if he recognises any of the names. There are numerous Blanchard lines all over the world, many originating from England. There were two very early lines that migrated to the Americas in the early 1600's. They have been proven, by DNA from direct male descendants, NOT to be related. There are searchable websites for both. DNA has also proven that a gentleman in Victoria is of the same line as my children, yet his family seems to have immigrated direct from England. The full connection has not yet been found.
