Hi Gwen, Can't help notice the name TINSLEY. I am researching William Tinsley STOVER, American born about 1831, arrived in Aus about 1857, spent 10 years in Vic, then 40 in Qld, in Rockhampton / Mount Morgan area.

Dear listers; many of you have been so helpful in understanding Brisbane and helping me find THOMAS HOPE who emigrated to Brisbane from England in 1948. I was researching on behalf of his daughter in his first family. We think we have finally closed the story for Thom...finding his death at Brisbane 1983 and he having lived his final years at Hopetoun home/Oxley.... We are now just waiting for his death cert to finalize that. BUT, like any family search, we have had some real surprises! Travelling with Thomas Hope to Aus in 1948 was a daughter Margaret Maureen, age 8 in the company of her mother Doris Gates and her son, Charles. They initially went to Kilcoy, if only for brief time. Thomas was found living at 45 Edgar st, East Brisbane by 1953 but there was no "Doris"...she likely having returned to Britain sometime around then, as her son was married at Leeds in late 1953 and she was a witness. We found her death at Yorkshire, 1975. The most surprising thing is that the obituary did NOT MENTION any daughter.!! but did mention Doris' 2 sons. so my dilemma! is WHERE IS MARGARET MAUREEN HOPE? is there any way to find if she died at Brisbane, between 1948 and 1953? any City directories or Electoral rolls so far for 45 Edgar st, [1958-1965] showed only THOMAS HOPE and INEZ PALMER...because, even if there, M.Maureen would be underage up to 1958, and not appear. some of you may remember my postings of Feb/Mar 06. I sure would appreciate any help now again, thanks Liz of BC Canada

Dan I wish I had some connection and could help you. I just wanted to say this is one of the clearest messages I have ever seen on family research. It is also inspiring, showing how much can be accomplished with a so little to start from. If everybody would write this clearly, it would be a joy to read the stories. I used to find that major breakthroughs occurred every 5 years or so, but now with digital sources that time can be greatly reduced. Best of luck with your research and may you find lots of "cousins" as I have.

G'day My name is Dan Howe, I am just over 60 years old and I live at Strathpine outside Brisbane. A little while back I was asked about my Grandfather, John Robert 'Jackie' Howe. Whilst I had a fair knowledge of 'Jackie' Howe himself, I found I had a very limited knowledge of my genealogy and that such as I did have was mainly derived from my childhood recollections of 'family' stories and gatherings. I also found that, because of my age and placement in my family [a late born son], all of my parent's siblings and most of my parents cousins, nephews and nieces were deceased by the time I started this research, as were all but one of my six siblings. I had little factual or documented information available in such family records as had been passed on to me. Since that time I have been able to identify the names some 200+ direct descendants of my G.G.Grandfather Abraham Howe [b. Abt 1810] and his wife Mary Bendel [b. Abt 1810; m. Abt 1835] extending to their 4th Great-Grandchildren. Whilst the details of later members will be filled in as they become available, I have had little success with obtaining more detailed information in respect to early family members. I have established that John Howe ['Jackie' Howe's father] was born in 1835 at Jerry's Plains, New South Wales. I have been unable to locate further details as to his birth nor any details as to the births, deaths, or marriage of his parents [Abraham and Mary]. I have been unable to establish if there were any other children from this marriage. John Howe ['Jackie's father'] was married in Killarney, Qld on 23 Jan 1860 to Louisa Stokes [b. Abt 1835, England?]. The next two generations of this couple lived predominately in the Queensland central-west areas around Killarney, Warwick and Blackall. Later generations tended to migrate towards Brisbane and south-east Queensland. I would be grateful to anyone who could help me with details or research contacts concerning this tree, particularly in respect to the early members, eg where Abraham and Mary the first of the line in Australia - if not, who was; when and where were they born and married, where did they die; did they have other children, if so who, when and where; any information concerning 'Jackie' Howe's siblings:- Louisa Victoria b. 10 Jul 1863 Susannah Jane b. 16 Oct 1865 Mary b. 27 May 1868, d. 21 Sep 1912 Emily b. 01 Jun 1873 I apologise for the length of this request for assistance but I have been 'brick-walled' for some time now in respect to early members and am in bad need of assistance. I am willing to share my research with any person who believes there is a connection between our trees. Thank you for the time you have taken to read this e-mail and I hope to hear from you in the future. Dan Howe

> * Rosevale memorials at C. Zahnow Road, Boonah Shire Does anyone know why there are a group of headstones sitting alongside C. Zahnow Road at Rosevale? It looks to us as if these memorials have been moved from somewhere else (the layout looks too close together to be the original burial sites). http://www.chapelhill.homeip.net/FamilyHistory/Photos/Rosevale-Lone/ We know there was an Anglican church (now closed) in Rosevale. Could they have been connected to it? > * Pine Mountain St Michael's Catholic, Ipswich > * Pine Mountain St Peter's Anglican, Ipswich There is supposed to be a Congregational cemetery in Pine Mountain, possibly in Stokes Road, possibly over-grown. But we could not find it, although we did find an old church now converted into a house. Any clues on the whereabouts of the cemetery would be much appreciated! Or any info about it. Also, does anyone know the whereabouts of the cemeteries in Mt Alford or Mt Sylvia? And, finally, we have photographed an old Catholic cemetery on Plunkett Road, Tambourine, but there is supposedly another cemetery (Anglican? General?) on that same road. But again, we could not find it and would welcome any input. Kerry & David

Hello everyone :-) I’m new to the list. I was just wondering whether anyone in QLD might be researching the family of a man named LOUIS VASCO who was born in London but was living in Brisbane QLD with his wife GWENDLYN when he joined the service in WW1. He was a caricature artist and drew a picture of my Great Grandfather in 1917 while they were overseas. I believe they were friends as my Great Grandfather treasured this picture. I would love to get in contact with anyone researching him and family. He passed away ‘of sickness’ in 1918.

Hi Kay, Thanks for your reply. Yes I did know about the other school in Munro Street, it was a private girls school. The one I am looking for is now the Hear and Say Centre in Munro Street and was a small infants school known as the Auchenflower Infants School and it was on the lower floor of the Church. As Miss O'Shea was the first teacher it acquired the name of Miss O'Shea's school and the name stuck. I have been contacted by a lady who did a thesis on "end of line" ladies, spinsters such as Miss O'Shea, so I have been able to find out a bit of information from her.
