Greetings Rachel, Have you had any responses to your request? I am connected to early PICKERINGs in the general area, which is on the NW side of Brisbane ( Upper Kedron, Grovely areas) There are many descendants and those are scattered, generally in the SE region of Qld. I have not checked, but presume that WhitePages would produce some information. Regards Albert. ----- Original Message ----- From: <aus-qld-brisbane-request@rootsweb.com> To: <aus-qld-brisbane@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2008 5:00 PM Subject: AUS-QLD-BRISBANE Digest, Vol 3, Issue 134 > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

I thought someone may find the following interesting and or helpful in their own research I recently purchased a 100 year old property and was unsure of when it was built. I then started to do lots of research. I obtained a Historical Titles search and noticed a charge on the title being a "Well charge" This means : In 1886 Timothy Devereux sold his land (my property) to his daughter Bridget subject to the said Timothy and subsequent heirs using any water from the well on the property and carrying away the water. Even though the well is long filled in the charge still is on my title today. I believe I can have this well charge removed. My property was sub divided in the 1970's and the previous owners son lives behind my cottage Luckily for my research the previous owners son who had been there since the 1930's told me the well was originally on his side of the property. He told me the house was at least 100 years old and his family had been there since the 1930's. I also applied for a document over the property which explained to me all about the well charge going back to 1886 I have also found out my street's name was changed in the early 1920's Regards Kathryn
Hello List Hope I got the right list .. After the surname PICKERING. Actually a lady who lived in Alexandra Hills, QLD. I know the street but will not post it. Does anyone on here a Pickering or know any Pickerings from Alexandra Hills, QLD? Be ever so grateful for any help at all. Thank You Cheers Rachel KELLYCanberra, ACT _________________________________________________________________ Net yourself a bargain.

Hi All, What Is éthiques? I also had a person by the name of David Bishop, who lives somewhere in Sydney, NSW who got hold of an old copy of my "Bishop Family Tree" sources and all. I had done this tree some ten years ago and gave a copy to about half a dozen members of my family. As anyone who has done a family tree knows how much research, time and money goes into it. Little did this person realise that I always place an error in any tree that I give out and I also log the same. This fellow placed all my research on several sites which I subscribe too without my knowledge or permission giving the impression that it was his research and work. He obviously knows very little about my family as well. He too would have had to spend quite some time entering all my information into a computer and transferring via gedcom. At no time did he acknowledge where he got all the information from but claimed it was all his own work. I also have had people contact me regarding this from overseas as by copying my research he was also copying work they had given me in good faith. What makes me sick is this sicko also placed the name of minors and living people including my immediate family. I really think people who do this sort of thing are either lacking attention or are doing this to attract attention towards themselves. The privacy laws were put in place to protect us from these people. Cheers Annie
Annie As ever, there is another point of view. All the information we gather and consolidate was once the work of someone else. Perhaps an eighteenth century curate who was never really sure how to spell our family's name. Anyway, we record what he wrote and consolidate it with all the rest of the information we gather in a form relevant to our own line. Perhaps our greatest hope is for some future generation to find that information of interest and add to it such that our trials, tribulations and triumphs and that of our predecessors are learnt from and not forgotten. We hope that they will check what we have recorded and correct any errors in the process. Good luck with your research. Regards Chris
Hi Listers ,I am trying to search various names which once lived in Fortitude Valley circa 1900 /1950 ,our family lived in Wynn St between Ann / McLachlan there was a woman last name "Noonan" who lived on the cnr of Wynn and Ann St Fortitude valley and from what I remember there was a horse stable in the rear of the house ,has any one a clue or related to the name please , many thanks Terry Murphy
Interesting you say about the Genes reunited site .. I had a lady who contacted me and wanted all my info... I AM related to the Poet Robbie BURNS and can prove it....................... she states she is also related and could I please give her access to my tree ... she wanted all the info I could supply her. even asked to give her access to the Living relatives........ On asking how she was connected here is what she gave me.. My Ancestor who IS Related.. had a Daughter Elizabeth. who married a William ***so far correct.. William had a Sister who married a William ......Who's Brother had a Son..... who had a Son ....who's Son was living with a lady ****not married Living with a Lady who's Father's Brother was her Grandfather............. She didn't even have the correct dates for the first Elizabeth and William..... and Im sure if I bothered to check the names she gave me for the Son's Son's etc I would find some errors .. When I challenged her about the dates she had for Elizabeth and William...................... she said............ "she puts everything she gets onto her tree and THEN and only When someone who is directly connected to anyone in her tree finds a mistake she corrects it........that way she knows it will be right because that person was directly connected ".... needless to say she DIDN'T get access to my information................. There is also information on the IGI about my Family which is totally incorrect....................and I cant find a source it was put there by someone ... (because of the Batch No. ) The info on here has the right Parents.......a couple of the Children correct but has them Living in Victoria not Qld... and one that is buried in Dutton Park and never married they have in Victoria..with a Family...... I cant understand people just adding names to their Family without checking...................the interesting thing I find about this hobby is when you do find a Lost relative and can actually prove they belong you get a sence of achievement... I have a lot of extra names in my Data base...............Names that I know are connected to the Family... but cant yet prove...... I think we all have this.... but do NOT add until you can say for sure that they are yours... Trouble is we cant do anything about it EXCEPT not to share unless we know they are definately Family and then select what Info you want them to have Jan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pam Dale" <pamjdale@bigpond.net.au> To: <aus-qld-brisbane@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, September 21, 2008 10:19 PM Subject: Re: [AUS-QLD-BRISBANE] AUS-QLD-BRISBANE Digest, Vol 3, Issue 130 > Hi Ian & Listers > > I am appalled.

Hi Ian & Listers I am appalled. I did a google search on the person concerned. Interesting. Her tree has been removed from Ancestry. There is someone on Ancestry who has some of my names amongst his/her tree of 32,273 names. I have just realised that they are all from the 1881 censes, as my grandfather's name is incorrect - as it is on the census. These people are just name gatherers, not researchers. I have come across another through genesreunited who has over 40,000 names. Impossible for a family tree. I refused him access to my tree as he was not related to me, but to someone in my tree.

Lo Ian and Margaret This is the very reason that I have never published anything except snippets of my tree. Anyone who has connections to those snippets can get in touch with me for more information. Yes what the lady has done is unethical in the extreme.

Thanks Anne, I gave a demo at GSQ on Australian Newspapers Online just this morning and the NLA Beta version was the first site I covered. The site was so popular with the attendees that it was hard to stick to my lesson plan - it really is amazing what you can find. It also allows users to correct text that has been misread by the computer which is another great feature. Another good site for more recent newspapers is Newsbank which is available online to members of the Queensland State Library with an e-Services Card at: http://www.slq.qld.gov.au/find/articles/databases_news Regards Paul --------------------------------- Paul Mann Brisbane, Queensland Australia Ciscoshell@hotmail.com http://www.geocities.com/ciscoshell/ Researching Bossingham, Burrows, Carlyle, Coomber, Garland, Head, Hull, Mann, Splevins, Stuckey & Whitehead President: Genealogical Society of Queensland --------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of aus-qld-brisbane-request@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, 14 September 2008 5:01 PM To: aus-qld-brisbane@rootsweb.com Subject: AUS-QLD-BRISBANE Digest, Vol 3, Issue 128 >Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2008 22:58:13 +1000 >From: "Perplexed" <awhitefo@bigpond.net.au> >Subject: [AUS-QLD-BRISBANE] National Library of Australia newspaper > digitisation project & offsite access to online databases >To: <AUS-QLD-BRISBANE@rootsweb.com>, > <aus-nsw-hunter-valley@rootsweb.com>, <aus-german@rootsweb.com>, > "'aus-immigration'" <aus-immigration-ships@rootsweb.com>, > <aus-nsw@rootsweb.com>, <aus-qld@rootsweb.com> >Message-ID: <002a01c915a0$61cac880$25605980$@net.au> >Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" > >Hi - you may already know about this newspaper project.

Hi - you may already know about this newspaper project. The National Library of Australia (nla.gov.au) has been digitising old newspapers from around Australia and they are now online and searchable. They are digitising newspapers which were printed between 1803 to 1954. I found over 100 references for just one of my family names and have been enjoying myself reading the articles and adverts. I have found ship arrivals, property sales by searching for property names as well as the standard surname searches. This is a great resource. It can be found at: http://ndpbeta.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/home There are a range of search options you can try. I've searched by surname, location, property name, ship name etc. You can also search by newspaper, by year and by decade. Remember, it's a beta version and the digitisation can sometimes be poor but a great bonus is that you see the actual newspaper article as well as the digitised text. It is a work in progress and worth revisiting regularly if you have interests in Australia as additional information is being added regularly. The 100+ family references I found this week were approximately 90 references a couple of weeks ago when I first logged on. It will be interesting to see how many articles/items they grow into. So keep visiting! Keep in mind that names such as McGrath may also be searched as M'Grath Also, for those who are registered users of the library the National Library now offers all registered users across Australia 24/7 access to selected online databases. Registration is available to anyone living in Australia, so it's not just State based as other State Libraries are. They have 60 or so databases which can be accessed off site by registered users, including Gale, ProQuest, the Economist Historical Archive, 18th Century Journals, MacquarieNet, Origins Network, The Times Digital Archive etc. Access can be requested online at: http://www.nla.gov.au/getalibrarycard Hope these are useful.

Hi Sharon, You can download an application form for the death certificate from the Qld Department of Justice website http://www.justice.qld.gov.au/16.html If the death occurred more than 50 years ago you do not have to fulfil all the obligations of proving identity or being a relative or getting permission from next of kin. The cost is $29.95 ($27 plus postage) or an extra $10.85 if you require it to be posted by registered mail. You can pay by credit card by filling in the details on the form. Carol

Hi Heather, I will be going to Toowong Cemetery today Monday 8th Sept as my Parents Ashes are to be interred in the Family plot this morning. If there is any monument on the Hemming grave I will take a photo for you. Be aware that many graves have been removed when they deteriorate to the point of being dangerous to the public and the cemetery workers. Toowong is a lovely cemetery but very hilly with two gullies running through and it is difficult for the modern machinery to manage the grass and scrub. I will send some snaps of the area even if your family grave no longer exists. I will also check with the Sexton to find out who owns the plot now. It usually remains in the family and will be listed to the person who paid for the last burial. I will be in touch later today. Kind regards, Marilyn Thomson marilyn.thomson@bigpond.com

Dear Carol, If you have the opportunity I would appreciate it if you could also take a photo of my Great Grandmother's headstone. (I live in New Jersey, so it's a tad difficult for me to get to Brisbane). Her name was Ellen Greatwood Borham and the gravesite in Toowong is Portion 5, Section 33 Grave number 12. (Source -- Brisbane City Council grave location search.) I believe that her son in law, Ralph Clifton, was interred at the same location. The headstone may also have a memorial inscription to her grandson also named, Ralph Clifton, who was killed during WW1 in France. My e-mail is paul.droar@verizon.net Many thanks, Sincerely, Paul Droar -----Original Message----- From: aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:aus-qld-brisbane-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Carol Wood Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2008 3:40 AM To: aus-qld-brisbane@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [AUS-QLD-BRISBANE] Toowong Cemetry Hi Heather, I will take this photo for you one day next week.

Carol, I too would like to request a photo if at all possible. My cousin and I visited Brisbane (from California) in 1999. We made arrangements for a headstone to be placed on our gt grandparents grave (William & Kate DeLaney) but were told we could not place one on our gt gt grandmother's grave (since she shared a grave site). My cousin returned a year ago and was then allowed to place one on the gggrandmother's but we have no idea what it looks like. IF you have the time, we'd love to see what it looks like. Your time is probably limited so I'll totally understand if you are unable to do this BUT if you can, we'd love it. My gggrandmother was Mary Ann Beevers, buried at Toowong on 21 July 1907, grave site: portion 5, section 84, grave 21 per my records (I just confirmed this on the Brisbane Council site). Thank you very much. My email address is gbarbitta3@comcast.net. Thanks.

Hi Carol If it is not too much of an imposition, would you be able to take another photo while at the cemetery, of my gg grandmothers grave. She was Emily Warrener and is buried with her son Alfred in Portion 1, Section 58, Grave 1. My email address, if you are able to do this is irook@eftel.net.au Much appreciated.
