Hi A few days ago I posted a query to the list re the above people. Thank you to all who replied. Below is an edited copy of that posting: ”George married Elizabeth (Lizzie on the index) in Qld on 1/8/1893 and they had 6 children to 1903. She was born in the UK Then, allegedly, it was discovered that George was already married and his marriage to Elizabeth was annulled. Then in 1905 in Rockhampton, Qld, Elizabeth married Herbert DARE (a sort of relation of mine). Elizabeth is PAYNTER on the marriage index.” I have now been told by a grand daughter of Elizabeth & Herbert DARE that George Pitchford THOMPSON and Elizabeth Jane PAYNTER were supposed to have been married at Eidsvold and George’s father was John Pitchford THOMPSON and his mother was Johanna McCARTHY. I have found on the Qld BDM index where a George PITCHFORD died in 1931 and his parents were John PITCHFORD and Johanna McCARTHY. So was George’s name really George PITCHFORD and not George Pitchford THOMPSON? I have found where a George PITCHFORD, aged 17, arrived in Maryborough from London on “St James” on 24 July 1874. Parents are not shown on the the website (State Archives). Perhaps they would be shown on other records if there are any. I note on Trove and also the electoral roll there is a George PITCHFORD in WA. Now I would like to know if anyone has a George PITCHFORD in their family tree or can find out anything on him.
