Hi Jo, I found a Mary Robinson below but no record of Mothers death unless she was called by another name. Below are the only deaths in 1869 for that spelling and none for Robertson.

Hello List, I am a new subscriber and of course I need help. I have Richard WEBB marrying Bridget CAHER/CAHIR in Geelong in 1857. (GG Grandparents).

Can anyone offer any help or point me in the right direction. TIA Cate

Hi Sharlene, Unfortunately the inquest CD only goes up to 1985. But I looked anyway and no luck. Jenny

Sorry Jo, There doesn't appear to be an entry for either. I tried every which way - by surname Rob*s*n, by place, Inv* and by year ,but there is nothing at all that looks remotely like your girls. Jenny

I would be most grateful if you could have a look to see if George Parson/s and/or his wife Margaret is mentioned in the register, please. Many thanks. Catherine

I am looking for any information anyone may have on the Dane family. They originally came from Hawick in Scotland and arrived in Australia in 1894 and worked as weavers in the woollen mills in Geelong. There names were Edward, Mary and two children Mary and Edward. Edward Jnr married Jessie Isabel Graham and had three children. Edward Wm, Jno Patk, and Vincent Houston. If any one has any links with these two families I would appreciate hearing from them. Regard, Katie Bartholomeusz

Hello List, Mary Ann O'Brien married John James Howarth at Colac at 24 January, 1863. The couple possibly worked on the Worrell property of William Robertson and may have met there I have considerable information on the Howarth side and the many descendents but have very little on Mary Ann O'Brien. She was born in Dublin Ireland - her father was James and her mother Eliza McDillan. She may have come to Port Philip on the "Shaxamaxon" in 1862. Is there anyone with connections to Mary Ann? Did other family members join her in Victoria? Also, is the original Robertson homestead still standing? Regards, Selena Williams

Hi Catherine, Sorry to say they aren't in it. Received my copy yesterday, it is great. Quite a few of my family in it. cheers Dorothy > I would be most grateful if you could have a look to see if George Parson/s > and/or his wife Margaret is mentioned in the register, please. > > Many thanks. > Catherine > > > ==== AUS-VIC-GEELONG-DISTRICT Mailing List ==== > Geelong & District Towns and Regions : > http://www.zades.com.au/geelong/gdtown.htm > --------------------------------------------- This message was sent using Satlink Webmail. http://www.satlink.com.au/
