I agree wholeheartedly Dawn and I wonder how many gullible people there are out there, who will answer this rubbish :-( Cheers Lyn

I can see that the internet etc etc will be killed by just this sort of thing in years to come. And then we shall be back to the days of pen and ink etc - if we can still know what they are! And the postman - problem is, the post office is not nearly as prompt and reliable as they were about 100 years ago and even in the 1960s - two deliveries weekdays and one Sat morning then - and even say five years ago.

Hi Chris. Children were not usually named on passenger lists unless it was a wealthy family. Than just as Mis or Master. It seems l likely they would have travelled with their parents. You might find marriage and death records in MZ. I expect you have tried both . Very frustrating for you. Have you tried under the mother’s maiden name?

Hello Listers, I have hit a brick wall and would welcome your input. I am trying to locate 2 people born in 1845 and 1847 in the Female Factory at Launceston. Their names are Charlotte Carr and her brother Adam Carr born 1845 and 47 respectively Their mother who is my gr gr grandmother was Charlotte Richardson aka Kerr, a convict per Mexborough, arriving in 1841 VDL. She had 3 children in Tasmania, the 2 listed above and a daughter born April 1843 unnamed Kerr. This child died 9 months later in Jan 1844 and was named Ellen Kerr. As she died in the Female factory there was an inquest. I have birth certificates for these 3 children as well as death cert for Ellen Kerr and father's name was not recorded for any of these births. As Charlotte Richardson/Kerr and her partner Adam Moore (x convict) eventually settled in Auckland about 1852, I followed some leads and asked the New Zealand list for more information about a Charlotte Kerr who died in Christchurch. I have now been able to rule this person out from NZ and am seeking input from our Aus-Tas listers. For additional context, Charlotte Richardson aka Kerr partnered with Adam Moore, also a convict, per Maitland arriving 1844 and I suspect that he fathered 2 babies, Charlotte and Adam Carr as he arrived well after baby Ellen's death. Adam Moore made an application to marry Charlotte Kerr in Oct 1847 but the application seems inconclusive. The couple eventually married some 20 years later in Auckland. My question is this. What happened to these 2 children born 1845 and 1847 (Charlotte and Adam Carr). I have been unable to track them leaving VDL with their mother in Jan 1849 when she sailed on the "Clarence" to Port Fairy. Adam Moore her partner had sailed to Port Fairy the month before on "Julia Percy". I thought that the children may have died as infants/young children but can't locate a death in Tasmania or Victoria. As an aside I located a death of an Adam Moore in 1884, aged 37, drover, Launceston, but haven't found out anything about him yet. The year of birth would fit! His birth does not appear in Tasmania. I have tracked Adam Moore senior and Charlotte now Moore to Port Fairy via Jenny Fawcett's newspaper index. I know that they lived in Port Fairy at least until November 1851 when Adam had a court appearance. I tracked them to Auckland with Adam Moore appearing on electoral rolls from 1854. They remained in NZ until their respective deaths in 1883 and 1882. I have wads of information about their lives in NZ. In between leaving Tasmania and their convict lives to the time that they arrived in Auckland c 1852 they had 3 boys in Victoria, none of whom appears to have a birth registration. I am utterly convinced that these 3 boys are my relatives as per evidence on their death certificates. My brickwall is this "what happened to the little children born in 1845 and 1847 to Charlotte Carr ? would it be likely that their parents would leave them behind in Tasmania? If so would they have been placed in foster care or the equivalent, did they die and if so can anyone locate their deaths. If they left VDL with their mother or father, were children not listed on shipping lists? From their births in 1845 and 1847 these 2 children just disappeared. Thanking you in anticipation.

I have searched and found that on 8th November 1875 the above man died at sea on the vessel Nineveh which became one of the vessels owned by the Australian government as the white Star line. Descendants of Frederick believed that he went to Australia but the records do not indicate that this happened. I have investigated a trip by Nineveh about that time which did come to Australia and there was an outbreak of chicken pox and a number of children died and the vessel was quarantined. However the only deaths were recorded were children and one woman. I have wondered if he was a merchant seaman and this is why his death is not mentioned in the records about the passengers? I also wonder as to what happened to his body as the records do not state anything. Was he buried at sea or was his body returned to England and to his wife and family. How can I determine the answers to these questions? Anyone who is happy to help me get some answers please let me know and I can send you what I have off line, Ian Turnbull

Interesting, Further to my initial query, at the suggestion of List Mum Meryl I had a look at the historical land charts for the area (something which I should have done in the first place). I see that a William HILL purchased 640 acres of land fronting directly onto the eastern side of Long Plains Road in the West Tamar. Who would this William Hill have been? Probably not the William Hill of "Williamwood" near Ross, but quite possibly his nephew, son of his brother John Hill. Which is interesting indeed, since the "skilled stonemason" in question was James Colbeck, who worked on the Ross Bridge.

Hi Douglas William Dawson Grubb had some land granted in that vicinity. If anyone could afford a skilled stonemason, it would be WDG. It’s the Parish of St Michael’s, Devon. https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__search.archives.tas.gov.au_default.aspx-3Fdetail-3D1-26type-3DI-26id-3DAF396_1_625&d=DwIFaQ&c=kKqjBR9KKWaWpMhASkPbOg&r=i_LQs9DbVPyA1d4XXLxKbzvIFyFXVQXpPud-TuD7xxs&m=NINAG9VjjqhXeXR7bRgQYfvofbliEeV39ryc1bx-N3M&s=t6qK5CXJlpdu0KC5mTC4ELLMiRWAUjbaOaHumI1DTuY&e= I’ve been researching Daniel and Patrick Spillane, who bought land on Long Plains road, but not until the 1860s.

Would like to thank the folk ho sent me some great stuff on the family which shall be followed up Elainw

Hi List, My query is about a place known as "Long Plains" in Northern Tasmania. Where was it in 1843? What was it in 1843? The words "Long Plains" are written at the top of an 1843 census return for Parish No. 8 in the West Tamar. (CEN 1/69/54) I have done some searching, and I have found a Long Plains Road that runs from the Frankford Highway to Bridgenorth, inland from Exeter. (I have also found references to a 1200-acre property called "Long Plain" near Deloraine which was for sale in 1840/1841, but that seems to be well out of the way, so I'm discounting it.) Assuming the Long Plains Road reference is somewhere near the mark, does anyone know of a building which currently or formerly existed in this area, which might have engaged the services of a highly-skilled stonemason for several years around 1842/3 ???
