Hi Lyn, Has anyone purchased Raymer and Clifford Gibbards marriage certificate from 1943 (#11545) in Victoria? They're pretty cheap and downloading is straight-a-way once paid for? or is that where the information came from about the two different possibilities? Though Dora Maud Ryan and Robert McDonald were married in Victoria in 1908 they are resident at 33 Invermay Road, Launceston on the Electoral Rolls between 1914 and 1918. So If Raymer was their child most likely born in Tasmania if her birth date on the burial record in Victoria is correct - 26/11/1917. Dora's family was R.C. based on her parents marriage. I thought might have been able to find baptism for Raymer but if they stayed to R.C. faith there are no Launceston R.C. available online or on microfilm covering the 1917 period... Alvera Maud Ryan born to Maud Ryan in 1897 was living at 208 York Street , Launceston under the roof of Mrs Margaret Thompson. Interestingly two year earlier at that address Mrs Thompson was accused of running a 'house of ill fame' and had a number of young ladies 'boarding' with her. May account for Alvera's unknown father? Did something similar occur in the next generation if Raymer's her daughter?

Hi everyone, Having failed completely in my quest to find the origins of the Thomas Smith who was living with my many times great-aunt, Ann Elizabeth Ashton nee Cockerell, in 1821, I'm turning to the brains trust here for help. Thomas Smith, a free man, was involved in a huge hoist from Edward Curr's store in Bathurst Street, along with a host of convicts, and my free rellie A E Ashton. Details follow: " Richard Foster, John Meadowcroft, John Maybery, Wm. Day, Gustavus Lucas, Wm. Hone, and James Kemp, prisoners, and Thos. Smith and Ann Elizabeth Ashton, free persons, charged with being concerned in the burglary and very extensive robbery on the premises of Messrs. Edward Curr and Mason, in Bathurst street, in the night of the 24th ult. were fully committed for trial. Thos. Smith and Gustavus Lucas were also fully committed for trial before a Court of Criminal Jurisdiction on a charge of stealing sheep, the property of James Hooper, of Mount Direction Valley."- Hobart Town Gazette and Van Diemen's Land Advertiser (V.D.L.), 8 September 1821 Ann E. got away Scot free - talk about Nepotism. The gang were captured by her brother-in-law, Hobart Town District Constable John Dacres and her former next door neighbour at New Town, Hobart Town Chief Constable Richard Pitt. Her father William Cockerell, who arrived with Collins in 1804 as a free settler, and her cousin-in-law Michael Mansfield, Derwent River Pilot and former New Town Chief Constable, bailed her for £100 - £50 each. Her name appears to have been erased from the trial transcript too! Because this is such a long and complicated tale, that I won't detail all of it. But it does state that Ann E. and Smith were living together, even though Ann E was married to the convict William Ashton - thus my interest in him. My last "sighting" of Thomas Smith was when he appeared in court giving evidence at the trial of Alexander Pearce - he'd been sent to Macquarie Harbour for three years following his trial in Nov. 1822 for the 1821 theft recorded above. (I won't explain why the trial was held so long after his co-conspirators were tried - it's too complex too.) There are conflicting statements in the Colonial Secretary's Correspondence relating to Smith's origins - he was either "Thomas Smith, Born in the Colony, .. " or " SMITH, Thomas. Per "Ganges", 1797…" Fingers crossed that someone can help pin down this mysterious man's identity. Best wishes, Carol Brill, now in Echuca.

Wynnette's right - this has been reported on previously ... ever since 26 April and especially on US genetic genealogy blogs and other sites. And it does NOT mean that health insurers can prowl around on Gedmatch at random, checking on your dna. The US law enforcement uploaded a kit, compiled from dna at the crime scene, to find people who matched that sample. (Then there were several other stages, before they arrested the suspect.) I can't see how doing this would benefit health insurers.

G'day All, I am after information on Raymer Alfreda McDONALD born 26 Nov 1917. Mother either Dora Ryan (born 1876) father Robert McDONALD or mother Alvira Maud RYAN (born 1897) father unknown. Raymer is the mother of my sisters' husband and the family have been trying to find proof of her birth so I thought I would ask the list for some help. Cheers Lyn VIC

Hello again everyone, We have been able to find out more about Samuel Morrison’s convict experience, so thank you to all who contributed. We haven’t found out much more about John McNamara from the time he was baptised in West Hobart in 1864 till he bobbed up in WA at the age of 24. There is a Newspaper article on TROVE about an 11 yr old boy who confronted a snake in John McNamara’s street in West Hobart which may have been him….right age, right street. Still we are delighted to hear, in response to our Rootsweb cry for help, from one of Hugh Morrison’s (father of Samuel Morrison the convict) descendants and fill in a few Western Australian blanks together. We really appreciate the community spirit demonstrated by all Listers.

Dear List members, Can anybody throw correct information on Elizabeth Cummings arrival in VDL, as I thought that she and two of her children arrived from Port Jackson with Lieut. Bowen on the Integrity in March 1804. However, I have recently read that her daughter Elizabeth was born at Norfolk Island prior to their re-location to Sullivan Cove. Question is: Which is correct?
