Hi all I'm after lookups for the land valuation rolls for Burnie for the years 1915-1930 if they exist. John and Margaret Close lived in King St Burnie on and off throughout this period. Sarah Snooks(neeClose) was also listed in King St on the 1928 Electoral rolls. If I can place her in the same house as John Close I may be one step closer to solving the parents of John Close!! Unfortunately no house numbers have been noted on any of the electoral rolls! Fingers Crossed in anticipation! Trish Grey Darwin NT

Further to earlier email. This may be the birth of the Anne Watts who had the twin girls in 1866 - http://stors.tas.gov.au/RGD33-1-28-p676j2k Cheers, Peter On Tue, Oct 14, 2014 at 3:21 PM, Peter Oakley <pete.j.oakley@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Michelle, > > Found this baptism which seems to be a match for part of your query but > only for one child.

Hi Michelle, Found this baptism which seems to be a match for part of your query but only for one child. There was no twin recorded before or after the entry nor any reference right up until 1869 where I stopped looking. St Johns the Evangelist, R.C., Richmond (baptisms - NS1052/1/3 pg. 43) 1866 Tempus Natus - 20 Sept. Tempus Baptismatis - 21 Oct. Name - Honorah Filius vel Filia - Girl Nomina Parentum - James McCullogh. Ann Watts Nomina Patrinorum - Patrick Murphy, Catherine Moore A me. - Michael J Beechinor There is also the death of a 4 month old child, Ann Watts at Richmond in 1867 - http://stors.tas.gov.au/RGD35-1-36p136j2k Whether this is the same child that was baptised or the twin I don't know? Could they have shortened Honorah to Ann?? or named the twins Honorah and Ann? I based my search on a punt looking for McCulloghs and Watts in the same vicinity. They both appeared in the newspapers at Richmond. I have a suspicion that James August/ine McCullagh was a child of Simon and Ann (Cunningham) McCullagh. She died in childbed 1844. James McCullough was born circa 1843, Did he survive and his mother die? Simon McCullagh or McCulloch had the "Union hotel" at Richmond. A John Watts appears in 1867 wanting to rent or lease a farm at Richmond. I think the use of "Hobart Town' in the advertisement was a pretty broad descriptive if the children were actually born at Richmond??

Hi List, Thanks to Trove I have the following notice – but where are the birth records for these twins? Also James Augustine McCullagh married Annie Edwards in 1877 in Longford RC – describing himeself as a bachelor (starts off as a shoemaker then turns into a butcher before passing away in Evandale in 1889). No marriage of a McCullagh to a Watts. If I have the right John Watts – his sisters both had illegitimate families with married men, but surely John wouldn’t put a marriage notice in the papers of three colonies if the information wasn’t correct? 1866: At the residence of her father, Hobart Town, Mr. John Watts, the wife of Mr. James August McCullogh of twins, daughters. Mother and daughters doing well. Melbourne and Sydney papers please copy. Can anyone identify who this daughter (Miss Watts/Mrs McCullagh) is? Or even the twins names? Any advice greatly appreciated Michelle

Update to earlier email. An illegitimate, unnamed female was born to a Rose parsons at Campbell town in 1892 # 257, and the informant was Jane Parsons, Aunt - http://stors.tas.gov.au/RGD33-1-73p276j2k Rose Parsons married James Henderson Hayward in 1894 - http://stors.tas.gov.au/RGD33-1-73p276j2k Seems that the likely course of events was that Jane took her sister's illegitimate child and raised her as her own?

Dear Jan, Jane Parsons may be the daughter of Richard and Susannah Eleanor (Wrackmore) Parsons born 1872 at Campbell Town. http://stors.tas.gov.au/RGD33-1-50p529j2k Twin sister Rose? This couple seem to have had an large family at Campbell Town through the 1850-60s. Jane's death notice in the Advocate 16 Oct. 1956 reads - Parsons - On Oct 15, at the residence of William A. Williams. at Motagu, Jane, beloved mother of Jean. Aged 85. So Jane's death age matches pretty well with that child born in 1872. There are no other children or a spouse listed in the death notice so Jean appears to have been her only child. I cannot find the birth certificate that supposedly says Jean Agnes Parsons was born at Campbell Town on the 3 June 1893. Suspect this may be an unsourced reference? Jane Parsons appears in the electoral rolls 1914 at Bedford St, Campbell Town,1936-1954 as just living at Montagu (Circular Head). Though there are other Parsons in the area no male presence seems to match her address. Her daughter and son in law, Jean and William appear at Montagu as well so its probable she was living with them. Between 1928 -1936 on the electoral rolls her daughter is Jean Agnes Harcus Williams. She goes back to Jean Agnes from 1937-1954. Likely Jeans' birth was illegitimate. Could the Harcus name she used have been her fathers surname? The only document that might confirm both her parents identities would be her marriage certificate from 1919.

Hello List I have subscribed to this list once again in the hope of learning something about the vast O'Leary clan of Golden Valley.

Michelle, in the 1914 Electoral roll for Tasmania, the residents of 1 Cameron Street, Launceston were William Mills, labourer, and Mary Elizabeth Mills, domestic duties. Judy

Hi List, Courtesy of Trove I have the following information from 1911: FUNERAL NOTICES. The funeral of the late Mrs. Elizahath Lidsey will leave the residence of Mr W. Mills, No. 1 Cameron-street, on Saturday afternoon, December 2, at 2 o'clock, for Intentment at the Church of Englaod Cemetery, Elphin. Friends are invites to attend. -- ARMITAGE AND FINNEY, Undertakers, 116 St. John-street. 1911 And from 1916: KELLY.--On the 19th March, at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Mills, No. 1 Cameron-street, Thomas, relict of the late Susan Kelly, aged 69 years. (Suddenly). The problem is that I can’t pin down who Mrs Mills is. Thomas Kelly married Susan Reid 1869 Launceston. Children: Richard James 1868-1876 Emma Harriet 1872 [Family moved to Vic in about 1873] Thomas Arthur 1874 – 1913 married Letisha Mary Lidsey (1873-1905). married 1901 Vic May 1876 – 1956 married Albert George Lidsey, brother of Letisha and son of Elizabeth) in 1899 Launceston William Kelly 1880-1881 [GAP] Violet Victoria 1887-1956 married Charles Frederick GREEN 1903 Launceston Most of the family appear to have returned to Tassie, probably sometime in the 1890’s. So: Is Mrs W Mills od Launceston Emma Harriet Kelly or are their other children between William and Violet that I’ve missed? Any help in finding out who Mrs W Mills is would be much appreciated, I seem to be going around in circles! Thanks Michelle

Thanks to the access to old photos of Tasmania on the LINC website, 19C townscapes and buildings can be seen before 20C changes took place. Here's a link to a panorama over Launceston in 1870, starting from Cameron St on the RHS (idenifiable because of the military sentry boxes at the entry to the barracks at the W end of Cameron St). The former Market Square, now largely occupied by Harvey Norman, is also visible, with William Street as the northern border. The reference number of the photo is PH1/1/60. http://catalogue.statelibrary.tas.gov.au/item/?q=launceston+1870&avail=Online&format=Images+\+Photograph&i=18&id=PH1-1-60#urls Judy

Hi List, Tasmanian Archives and Heritage Office (TAHO - Linc Tasmania) today launched their new 'Tasmanian Names Index' which includes the following: Arrivals (19th Century). Passengers and ships arriving, mainly in Hobart. Contains surnames A-K, L-Z to be added. Births (1803-1933). People born in Tasmania including some baptisms collected by the Registrar General (1900-1933 baptisms only). Census (1837-1857). Householders in the 1840s and 1850s, not complete for all districts. Deaths (1803-1933). People who died in Tasmania including some burial records collected by the Registrar General (1900-1933 burials only). Convict permissions to marry (1829-1857). Convicts applying to marry free people or other convicts. Convicts (1803-1893). Convicts transported to Tasmania and those convicted locally through the convict system. Departures (1817-1867). People leaving Tasmanian ports, mainly Launceston. Divorces (1861-1920). Petitions for divorce in the Tasmanian Supreme Court. General Index (1818-1934). A range of records, including people's names and subjects. Inquests (1828-1930). Inquests into people's deaths. Marriages (1803-1899). People who married in Tasmania. Naturalisations (1835-1905). People applying to become citizens. Wills (1824-1989). Wills and letters of administration of estates registered for probate. At http://linctas.ent.sirsidynix.net.au/client/en_AU/names/ Before you start searching please look at the 'How to use the Tasmanian Names Index' video - this will hopefully answer a lot of questions and save TAHO and the list receiving 'unnecessary' emails queries. I am personally interested to know what you think of the CONVICT indexes and what else you'd like to see go online.

Tam, In 1906 110 Campbell Street was the centre dwelling in a terrace of three houses, between Warwick Street and Williamson (now Burnett) Street, opposite the Trinity Burial Ground. In 1858 this section of Campbell Street was known as the Quadrant. The three houses are still there, the address of the centre one now being 218 Campbell Street. The present day location of the address 110 Campbell Street is 400m further south, an internal block near Brisbane Street. Other facts indicate the address in which you are interested is between Patrick and Warwick Streets. -- Regards Mike Hurburgh --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
