Hi Robert, I had a look at some of the baptism registers for Swansea, St Helens and Fingal (C of E and Methodist) but didn't find anything for Betty Quin/n being baptised. Looked between 1915 and 1920. Of note is that in the 1949 Electoral Roll for Evandale Betty Quin is living with Reuben and Clara Ann Quin (grandparents??) at Quarantine Road. In the obituary of Leslie Hilton Quinn in 1953, son of Reuben and Clara, Betty is referred to as 'sister of...' and further in the death notice Leslie is refered to being brother of Evelyn and Betty?

Perhaps Betty didn't even know Evelyn was her mother and it was kept a family secret? A thought anyway... Cheers, Peter > > >

There was a family of Quin who lived on an Estate at Apslawn , near Swansea in the 1960's. I know that for a fact as i used to stay with a friend of mine I worked with in Launceston and she used to invite me to stay with her. Some where near Bicheno.. tI was a large homestead type of house. My fiiends father worked on the estate..My friend was an only child so none of her family would live on he estate these days. I haven't seen nor heard from her for years but wouldnt mind betting the family still live there. Not much help I know Edie McArthur ------ Original Message ------ From: "Peter Oakley" <pete.j.oakley@gmail.com> To: "AUS-Tasmania@rootsweb.com" <aus-tasmania@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, 8 May, 2019 At 12:37 PM Subject: [AUS-Tas] Re: TFI lookup BETTY QUINN Hi Robert, I had a look at some of the baptism registers for Swansea, St Helens and Fingal (C of E and Methodist) but didn't find anything for Betty Quin/n being baptised.
