Hi listers, I am interested in the above names living around the Beechworth area in the last part of the 1880s and 1890s. Can anyone pinpoint their town or where they came from? Any info helpful as no one left alive to ask in my family. James Price married Robina Finney, that's all I know. These would be my gggrandparents I think. Thanks Beverly

Hi Beverly, I am also a Price descendant, and have quite a bit of information which I can send to you off list. James and Robina are buried in the Beechworth cemetery, and their son, James John Finnie Price was died in the first world war.

Beverly, Did your Price's die in the north east.? If so and they are buried in Beechworth cem the cemetery records (at the Burke Museum) usually give the last place of residence.

Hi Beverly, Here is what I can find on the family to 1888.... PRICE, James CM 800663 Marriage Spouse: FINNIE, Reubina Marriage Place: Stanley Reg Year: 1879 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 2003 PRICE, Harriet Robina CB 1681621 Birth Father: Jas Mother: Finnie Robina Event Place: Bworth Reg Year: 1880 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 6511 PRICE, James John Finnie CB 1681816 Birth Father: James Mother: Finnie Robina Event Place: Everton Reg Year: 1888 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 11101 And a child to Robina... FINNIE, Agnes Hadden CB 659430 Birth Father: Unknown Mother: Finnie Robina Event Place: Stan Reg Year: 1876 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 26075 and also possibly to sister Martha... FINNIE, Maud CB 659469 Birth Mother: Finnie Martha Event Place: Stan Reg Year: 1879 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 12260 This is the only birth of a Robina/Reubina FINNIE/FINNEY, however for James PRICE's birth (there being quite a number of them) you will need James and Robina's Marriage Certificate which will provide when/where born and parents' names, including mother's maiden name. FINNIE, Robina CB 659476 Birth Father: Jno Mother: Hadden Agnes Event Place: E`C'Wood Reg Year: 1859 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 10872 and siblings.... FINNIE, Agnes CB 659427 Birth Father: John Mother: Hadden Agnes Event Place: Cwood Flt Reg Year: 1855 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 3076 FINNIE, Agnes CD 285727 Death Father: John Mother: Hadden Agnes Age at Death: 5 Birthplace: Col Reg Year: 1860 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 9608 FINNIE, Agness CB 659431 Birth Father: John Mother: Haddan Agnes Event Place: Stan Reg Year: 1863 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 17543 FINNIE, Eliz CB 659443 Birth Father: John Mother: Hadden Agnes Event Place: Stanley Reg Year: 1867 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 4949 FINNIE, John CB 659455 Birth Father: John Mother: Hadden Agnes Event Place: Coll Reg Year: 1860 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 17532 FINNIE, Martha CB 659465 Birth Father: John Mother: Hadden Agnes Event Place: Coll'Wood Reg Year: 1857 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 8391 The death below provides Collingwood as place of birth, however using a search of FIN*/Nic* I have been unable to locate him. FINNIE, Nicholas CD 285742 Death Father: John Mother: Hadden Agnes Age at Death: 10 Birthplace: Coll Reg Year: 1863 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 5453 Given the location of Stanley, perhaps this is John's death... FINNIE, Jno CD 285735 Death Father: Peter Mother: Hamilton Martha Age at Death: 75 Death Place: Stanley Reg Year: 1884 Reg State: Victoria Ref Number: 2973 Then there are these entries on the LDS Family History site at: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp Peter FINNIE Sex: M Event(s): Birth: Abt. 1783 Of Carluke, Lanark, Scotland Marriage(s): Spouse: Martha HAMILTON Source Information: Film Number: 451183 Page Number: 0035 Reference Number: 71783 John FINNIE Sex: M Event(s): Birth: 7 Jan 1809 Carluke, Lanark, Scotland Parents: Father: Peter FINNIE Mother: Martha HAMILTON I couldn't find John and Agnes's marriage on the Australian Vital Records Index, but here it is on the LDS site..so obviously married prior to coming to Victoria. John FINNIE Sex: M Marriage(s): Spouse: Agnes HADDEN Marriage: 10 Dec 1847 Barony, Lanark, Scotland This certainly looks to be a good match for Robina's parents. Hope that this helps, Carol ps. if you would like me to look for anything else, the Australian Vital Records Index is to 1888 in Vic & NSW, to 1899 in Tas and to 1905 in WA. Also if you have any problems locating any records/or how to find them please let me know. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ian Wilson" <ibwilson@bluep.com> To: <AUS-VIC-NE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 5:47 PM Subject: [AVNE] PRICE / FINNEY around Beechworth circa 1890s > Hi listers, I am interested in the above names living around the Beechworth > area in the last part of the 1880s and 1890s.
