Hello all, I am looking for the marriage of Michael Gleeson and Anne Tierney whom I presume came from Ennis, County Clare. They had 3 children that I know of Mary b Abt 1832 Anne b Abt 1839 Kathleen Frances b 1842 Mary married James Conway in Ennis, County Clare on 29 May 1948 and came to Australia (Kyneton) on the Samuel Locke in Aug 1857 with 5 children. Anne & Kathleen ( school teacher and housekeeper resp) came out on the Dirigo on 28 March 1859. They went to James Conway who at that time was living in Nelson Road Emerald Hill before moving to Kyneton. I've found out most of the information about Mary & Kathleen, but wondered what happened to Anne Gleeson - did she marry - who - did she go to Kyneton, or did she move elsewhere in Victoria. Also, the marriage of her parents, Michael & Anne Gleeson, and if there were any other children of the family. Can anyone help please? I have had no luck in Ireland. I understand one of the Conways was a nun, presumably here in Victoria, but I know nothing about which Conway. Judy from the Blue Mountains

Hi Denise, I have had success in identifying my people in Clare right down to the townland where current descendants live. CONWAY is not in my family but Noonan is and I have them the Killaloe Parish which is further east of Tulla. I don't have any Honorah Noonan though, sorry jon Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2005 14:57:31 +1000 From: "Denise" <[email protected]> Jon, This is so tempting to answer. A stab in the dark, but sometimes they work... I have a great-grandmother Mary CONWAY born in Co Clare 1830s (at Tulla) wh o lived in the Tallangatta area died 1896. I don't suppose you have had the opportunity to research Irish records and have some luck on relations there??? I can't get anywhere except to say that Mary's father was Thomas a stonemason, and her mother Honorah Noonan/Nunan. Mary's sister Catherine also came to the northeast and lived in the Black Springs area. Just hoping that one day some one will pop up and say Hi we are related bac k in Ireland.!! Been trying for 7 years. If no luck, it's just nice to know that at least she had some country men and women nearby, who knows! regards Denise ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jon Patrick" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 15, 2005 2:46 PM Subject: Re: [AVNE] William Jones WWI >I have William JONES( ?-?) married to Margaret KELLY (1834, Co. >CLARE-1911) > who lived at least for some time around Mt MAcedon but other parts of the > kellys I know moved to Tallangatta district.

I have just made up a web site in dedication to my father Allen Godfrey Jones who was a POW who lived at Albury before moving to Vic. I have a newspaper cutting which showed him with his mother and brother Peter Jones arriving back in Albury which was from The Border Morning Mail. Also today I looked on the back of one of his photos and it says BMM photographic dept. I have been in touch with the Newspaper and I hope they will do a story on my father WW2 service and his return to Albury at the end of the war nearly 60 years ago. Cheers Kathryn

Thanks for your advice Anne Judy I'm not sure if this is the right avenue for my query, but I was wondering if an autopsy would have been held in regard to the following newspaper report of a burning accident, and if so, where I would obtain it from, given that although the lady in question was living in North Prentice at the time, she was taken to Corowa Hospital NSW........

Hello Anne, Such official appointments usually are listed in the Victorian Government Gazette, but it is possible that these early Victorian appointments are crossovers from the time when all appointments for Port Phillip were made by the NSW government, although Victoria, after independence, did try to legitimate previous appointments, though this took some time. As 1853 is early in this crossover period, so the NSW Govt Gazette pre 1851 might be checked. However, these are merely lists ... usually local magistrates (probably designated J.P.)

I'm just wondering if anyone has come across research on Brass Bands that existed in the area late 1800's? My g.g.grandfather was the band leader/conductor for the Euroa and Violet Town band during this period, but can't find any further information. Christine Simmonds

Hi Judy, It's unlikely that the inquest would appear on the Vic Inquest Index as the Inquest would normally be held in the State in which the person died as opposed to the State in which the accident occurred, therefore you'd need to check NSW Inquests which are on microfilm in larger genie centres / libraries.

Hi Judy, I've just checked the Vic. Inquest Index and your Mrs. W. Lochlin does not appear. My experience has been that inquests were also written up in local newspapers and were usually held within a day or so of the person's death. I don't have access to the NSW Inquest index but it might be worth you asking if anyone on the list has access to same and is willing to do a look up for you.

The sleeve of her dress, coming in contact with the candle, ignited, and the flames reaching her arm she awoke to her danger, her presence of mind at this stage seems simply marvellous, as she immiedately thought of money consisting of notes and silver, in her pocket. Putting her hand in the pocket she took out the money and threw it from her, but the action ignited the skirt of the dress. Now in flames, Mrs Lochlin went outside and put out the fire with water, but meantime had sustained terrible burns on her arms, legs and body.

Judy, There most likely would have been an inquest but due to the type of injuries they may have only conducted what was called an "inspection" rather than a full autopsy as the cause of death was fairly obvious (this isn't done anymore) Terry ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judy L" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 4:08 PM Subject: [AVNE] AUS-VIC-NE-D Digest V05 #116 > > I'm not sure if this is the right avenue for my query, but I was wondering > if an autopsy would have been held in regard to the following newspaper > report of a burning accident, and if so, where I would obtain it from, given > that although the lady in question was living in North Prentice at the > time, she was taken to Corowa Hospital NSW. > > > The Rutherglen Sun & Chiltern Valley Advertiser, Friday April 23 1897 > Fatal Burning Accident - Mrs. W.
